    Is Education Really Necessary?

    All we ever hear is that we need to go to college tone successful but is that really the case? Read more to find out!

    Ever since I was little, my grandparents and parents have drilled education into my head. Although, I always did well in high school, I knew that one day it would not matter what grade I made in geometry. Many people have succeeded in life without higher education so why can't you be one of them? Emily Oberg, that runs Kith Women, was in fashion school for a year before she realized that college was just not for her. Now, she manages a huge fashion brand in New York City. Education is definitely important, but with the creative field growing, you don't always need college. Not everyone can afford college and not everyone can make the grades they need to attend college. College is already free in New York so eventually, it will be free all over America and then people will need a masters or a doctorate to "succeed". Jobs will always have standards for their employees but you can help yourself. You can make it without spending thousands of dollars to get there. You just need a positive mindset and a go-getter attitude.
