Universities Seeing a Gender Gap in Enrollments

Albert Cruz says that he chose to forgo college for two reasons: "work would interfere with...classes" and he's already making "more money than some people who go to college." Do you think Cruz's reasons are legitimate and well though-out? If he were your friend, how would you have advised him? Explain in detail why you believe your advice is sound.

Albert has the right idea with working and already having a good job. But what if he gets fires from that job or what if that business closes. He could get an even better job with a college degree. People experience so many different opportunities at college that they didn't have before. I do believe that Albert made a good decision with finding a job that makes a lot of money to help give him a future. It's always good though to have a degree. I don't think Albert was looking at the bigger picture. If I was his friend I would advise him to go to college and get a lesser demanding job, but if he believed this was the right choice for him then I would agree with him. Some people are more into working than going to school. Some people just aren't cut out for it.
