Abstract
Hello my name is Bella Slack, and I completed this Research Project for my English 2010 class. Every student attending an American College is required to complete their General Education before moving further into career programs. Students spend tens of thousands of dollars on these classes, increasing the funds needed to obtain a college education and prolonging the number of years they are in college before their career. I used Library and Internet resources to find primary and secondary research, as well as a personally conducted survey that was used to inform my argument. Through careful analysis of my sources I found that General Education provides benefits for Students in their education, but that it is not perfect; and can inhibit the success of many Students as it is currently; presenting financial burdens and conflict with family and life events in early adulthood. The General Education structure is in need of revision in order to be more efficient, and further promote the success of all College Students in their education and careers.
