What Makes College Hard

     College can be really difficult for students. Especially here at Chabot College. There are a lot of factors. Some of the factors that can lead to it are money. Money can be very scarce for a student at Chabot College. Sometimes, you can’t get financial aid and it becomes very difficult to try and get money. Money can lead to things like not having transportation, or money for books. Money is what makes the world go round, and it rules everything. Without money, you cannot do a lot of things. Some students end up having to drop out because students end up having to help their parents with the rent or the food. Some students are also out on their own. They are busting their ass with one or two jobs, and going to school. They have insurance, rent, food, and a lot of other bills to pay, and if one bad thing happens money wise, they will not be able to go to school.
     Drugs can be a huge factor in college too. Some people do a lot of drugs like marijuana or abuse alcohol. Some people just start going to school high every day and can’t focus. One side effect of marijuana is laziness. Kids will start getting lazy and not go to school and just choose to get high. People who abuse alcohol get hangovers and end up not waking up for school. Some students get hooked in drugs in college. They get peer pressured to start smoking marijuana and drinking alcohol. Instead of studying, they go and smoke a joint, and instead of buying 50 dollar book, they buy 50 dollars’ worth of weed. Instead of doing your homework and studying, they go out and party and do drugs. That’s not the way it should go. People end up dropping out because of that.
If potheads cared this much about their education, they would probably stay in school
