In the essay of Charles Murray, he explains how he thinks too many people are going to college. I do not agree with this at all. Just as John Stuart Mill explained what college really taught you and what it was meant for, he enlightened me and made me realize that college is not just a knowledge institute. He quoted that it was to help someone become a "capable and cultivated human being." This stood out to me because it really is true. I found that out with my own experiences. Yes college is a place to learn but it is to broaden perspective of things. This includes religion, cultures, and ways of living. Although I did not agree with Murray, I did think is essay was quite persuasive. He used many ideas that built up his credibility. He used sentences that made you stop and think or stop and realize something. He did a very good job at using rhetoric is his essay. This is a very good way to persuade someone to believe or feel the way you feel.
