Dear Editor,

FREE UNIVERSITY EDUCATION
I disagree that everyone should have free university education. In alot of cases people who are ‘party animals’ could abuse this system.
Someone said that “higher education is for the talented, not the rich”. What is meant by talented? Does that mean you have to have high marks to get into university/college?
There are some people in this world who have done great things wihout having high marks nor university education or maybe were high-school dropouts.
Winston Churchill dropped out of school. William Powell “Bill” Lear was another one who created the Learjet. Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard. Others are Ben Affle4ck and Drew Barrymore.
