Bonus Activity - You Have To Pay To Play
On your blog, tell us what you think. Should students have to pay money (tuition fees) to go to university? Why or why not?
I think that they shouldn’t have to pay because what if they need money to buy themselves food.
Also, thousand of dollars is a lot of money that some people might not have.

What if they are poor and have no money to go but they are smart and want to go.
