13V: Purpose

The web definition of 'purpose' is "the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists." There is normally a purpose toward everything in life, and everyone believes they have a purpose in life, which is very true.

However, what is the 'purpose' of going to college and getting an education? Most people think that they need an education just to get a job and live their lives, but there is more purpose toward going to college than just being able to get a job. We've talked about getting a "liberal arts education" which is very important because it prepares you with more knowledge that you can use in the workplace, and most employers look for employees with a liberal arts education anyway. It gives you extensive knowledge and prepares you for the real world, not just the subject of what you're job is. Overall there is a purpose to everything and we've learned a lot about the purpose of a great college education.
