　　In the current climate of rising college fees and tight job market, the functions of higher education is arousing public concern. Having a degree or not seems not to make any difference to our life and may not necessarily guarantee a good job and income.

　　Students who attend higher education obtain a wide range of personal, financial and other lifelong benefits. First of all, the whole experiences of university life including all the academic lectures and social practices forge our personality and cultivate such virtues¹ as cooperativeness and openness. In addition, according to the statistics, there is a trendy correlation² between higher level of education and higher earnings³ despite the fierce job hunting competition. University is a　huge advantage if we need to acquire expertise⁴ to practice in a meaningful profession.

　　In my opinion, it would be wise to attend university. Having a decent degree and being broadly intelligent may not guarantee us success, but it makes us a candidate.
