Education Crisis

It is true that minorities have a harder time in getting a higher education. A reason being is that they don't have the money to pay for college or university. Many minorities want to go to college to further their learning, but are insted hit with the reality that higher learning is expensive. Without the help of goverment aid, it is harder for a minority to be able to say i want to go to the best university this country has to offer. I agree when you say why do only african americans or hispanics have to be stereo-typed as poor. There are many white americans that are poor that cant afford to go to college. Tuition for school's keeps rising every year, but yet the goverment is cutting back financial grants and loans. Maybe, the goverment thinks that the war is more important than the education our students receive. I believe that Texas should switch to what California is doing with their higher learning. Everyone goes to a community college for two years at no cost to the student. The only cost comes when they decide to go to a university. Texas is paying the cost, Texas is ranked in the bottom of the list for education and they still havent come up with a plan to try to fix that.

I agree about the education crisis. I think that Hispanic and Blacks need not to be stereotyped, it's not fair. I agree with the passion that whites are known for being poor to. But many, many people do want to get their education, bit the prices of tuition are dramatically rising everyday. It is quite ridiculous if you ask me. I hate the fact that the state is deciding to cut back on grants, I think that it is a way for them not to give out anymore money because they are greedy and want it all for themselves. I believe that people who want an education deserve to get an education. So what it hey need a little help from someone. Why deprive them of a better future. Isn't that what AMERICA wants!?
