Too Many Kids Go to College Debate

This is a little out of order, because I normally show this before our research unit. However, I needed to adjust due to the fact that you need me to take any further steps in our resume/interview unit. For this activity, I would like for you to divide your paper in half and label one half "Pro" and one half "Con". You need to note as many arguments in each column as you can. You will get points for each argument you list. The debate is longer than class time is, but the purpose of the activity is simply to demonstrate your ability to define arguments and supporting evidence.
