THE CONDITIONS OF THE ECONOMY AND ITS EFFECTS ON COLLEGE STUDENTS

THE CURRENT STATE OF OUR ECONOMY IS BEING FELT BY EVERYONE AROUND THE WORLD. COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE ALSO FEELING THE EFFECTS OF THE ECONOMY. THE CURRENT JOB MARKET IS AT AN ALL TIME LOW. WHICH SOUNDS BAD FOR ALL THE COLLEGE GRADUATES. THE POINT OF GOING TO COLLEGE IS TO GET A GREAT JOB EARNING DECENT MONEY. THE CURRENT ECONOMY IS DISCOURAGING FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS. IT WAS ALSO QUITE SCARY TO SEE AND READ ABOUT FANNIE MAE FINANCIAL PROBLEMS. SOME STUDENTS INCLUDING ME WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO ATTEND COLLEGE IF NOT FOR STUDENT LOANS. THE STUDENTS ARE NOT THE ONLY PEOPLE ON CAMPUS FEELING THE FINANCIAL SQUEEZE. PROFESSOR WERE TOLD TO CUT BACK ON PAPER AND SOME ALSO GOT A PAY DECREASE.
