my audience etc.

My audience is probably most people who have the typical American mindset that you have to get a good education at a good college or university to become successful in our country. I think that most people from middle school age and up would have the mindset that everyone needs to get a good college education to get a decent job. I know though that there are a good number of people that would agree with me on the fact that you don't need to have a college diploma because there are many people who know people or have heard stories of people who have done really well in the entrepreneurship or apprenticeship world. For example, my entrepreneurship teacher last quarter understood that education was helpful, but not necessary to doing well in the business world when it comes to entrepreneurship. I don't think that there are really any words I need to define. Many people might argue with the fact that some people don't need a college diploma, or they might be a little confused when I mention that because the American mindset is pretty well set on the idea that one needs to have a good college education to get a decent job. Some people might think that it is a rather stupid idea because most jobs require a college degree to be employed but I know that not everybody wil think it's dumb because they know that there are other opportunities to getting a good paying job besides an education.

  1. I agree that people can be successful without a degree, but in today's society, in order to stand out and feel secure in your career, it is important to have a degree. Good topic.
