Hello everyone!
In one of the agencies that I intern, there will be an opportunity for us students at ASU downtown to attend. On Monday April 27, 2015 Congressman Ruben Gallego will host a speech on College debt at the POST Office RM 135 at 10:00 am. Hope you get a chance to attend this event.
He touches on the fact that more and more students are getting into college debt because of high tuition costs. He is advocating for American students to have affordable education so that we can integrate onto society with a level of means so that we can contribute to economy by buying homes, cars or even starting a family. Student loan debt is a big issue in preventing future generations to obtain degrees and something must be done in Washington.
Hope to see you on Monday and support someone, regardless of party affiliation, is advocating and trying to protect of our generation from getting into student loan debt.
This seems like it was a great presentation that echos the sentiments of many particularly those without the means of obtaining a lot of support from their family or even scholarships. I am sorry that I missed it, but I am happy to here that this topic is gaining major traction. Such as the initiative to make community college free, subtracting two years off of the cost to attend college is a great start to reform, besides in a job interview I doubt that the organization will care for the fact that you got some of your general courses out of the way before transferring to a university.
