The auther claim governments should offer a free university education to any college student who cannot afford the tuition.At first glance,it seemes to be somewhat convincing,but further reflection reveals it omit some substantial concerns that should be addressed to substantiate the recommendation.In my point of view, governments should offer these college students some helps,but free fees is not the best idea of them.
It is important to educate students with complicated and professional knowledge for a society.One with professional knoweledge and technology may creat much more than hundrends of times value than a normal workers,although both works are needed for the society.So government should promise students who are smart and creativity can finish college and learn what they interested to become what the society need.
The government education investment is limited,which means if they put much into affording students attending the school,consindering the big number of students,they will have less to research and education fundamental facility.Besides,offering free education may also cause the situation that students go to college not for studying and exploring the knowledge but for avioding unemployment,which is ironic.Comparing to free education,education credit and scholarship for students who perform fantasticly are better,which can not only help students finish college,but also push students work harder.
To sum up,due to the above mentioned reasons,which sometimes correlate with each other to generate an intergrate whole and thus become more convincing than any single one of them,I may conclude that governments should help any student who has been admitted to a university but who cannot afford the tuition to finish his college,but demand he to pay back.
