Student Culture

There’s more to the phrase "Stay in school for as long as you can." What are the sacrifices students make on a daily basis just to earn the name of students? Such sacrifices often involve the use of money, time, and social relations. Of course, studying should be our main priority. But for those who attend schools and work on the side, the life of student blurs in with the one of a worker, a family man, a friend and of a lover. It sounds more and more with the life of an adult who is completing a continuing education course. And this is where financial institutions come in and make a fortune on the backs of poor students who have no choice but to make that student loan. The hardest thing that becomes is for the student to stay focused and finish what was once started. It would only be beneficial for students to finish college and successfully attend the job of their dreams, or at least, the job that puts them in more financial control then their parents were. Consequently, paying off the student loan debt, which by cultural standards would become almost suffocating for an average student alone, should be their (our) number one priority following school graduation. But what happens with those who want to attend graduate school after their undergrad courses completed? That is a troublesome question. Because time is unforgiving as always. Looking at this situation from a very harsh abstraction point of view, a student’s life is in constant race against time.
