TEACHERS: You can use the text for a dictation, a gapped text, or other form of classroom practice. For your convenience, here is the text you can copy and paste into a Word document.
How much should one pay for college? Today some students are able to receive a free education. However, many must pay a good amount of money.
People want to know the top fields. They read reports about the best industries. “When you complete your studies, will you make enough money to pay back the bank?” Is that the question we want to be asking as a society? Shouldn’t we be asking, “How do you want to be of service?” or “What is your calling?”
