Your Voice : Should post-secondary education be paid for by the federal government? Why?

Hunter Robbins
Criminal Justice
“I feel like the federal government could cut back on certain things and pay for it.”

Brittany Glover,
Police Academy
“Yes, they should pay for it just because it’s too expensive for kids to pay for college. Yeah, we get financial aid, but we end up having to pay it off in the long run.”

Cody Levens,
Business Administration
“No, it should not…It puts another level of high school kids getting a free education at that level, but when trying to get into state schools, they’re going to be behind. It’s because teachers won’t be paid as much, so they’re not going to teach at the same level they are now.”

Mike McDermott,
Business Administration
“Mine is the complete opposite of his [Levens] opinion. In economics, it tells you increasing the intellect throughout the community increases everything from an economic standpoint.”

Jessica Mai,
Psychology
“I don’t have a strong opinion on it because I can see it both ways, but I guess it would help if the government did pay for it.”
