What is education?
“Education is being instructed in something or learning something”
How would you define education?
“Learning”
What is higher education?
“A learning experience that is more thought intensive such as college courses”
What is the purpose of higher education?
“To grow and expand the thought process and to possibly understand oneself better and the world ”
-- Shannon, September 2006

“. . .after going through my first semester of college I have a completely
different perspective on a higher education. On the surface the degree is
important in getting a job and now it is hard to get a good job without one but
I wouldn't say that is all that it's good for. It is hard to put it into words but
anyone who is going through or has been through college realizes that the
degree means a lot more. Its not only the accumulation of knowledge that
gets you the degree it is the discipline, hard work, motivation to learn that
ultimately pushes you to get the degree. Simply put, at college you learn to
learn. As a wise professor once told me, "The point of real education is to
learn how to make sense out of the world, which is a lifelong goal. College is
merely the beginning where, if we 're successful, we learn how to go about it."
--Shannon, Jan 2007
