Argument Template

The general argument made by Dale Stephens in his work, The case against college, is that college is unnecessary nowadays.  More specifically he argues that college kills creative thinking as puts students into thousands of dollars into debt.  He writes, "school kills creativity."  He is suggesting an alternative schooling to college or just not going to college at all and that we should follow a business idea or whatever we want.  In conclusion Stephen's belief is students should not attend college after high school.
     In my view Stephens is correct that school does kill creativity and is very expensive although many jobs require a degree to work.  Also i believe the creativity has already been killed by the time we reach college.  More specifically i believe its the twelve years or structured schooling before college that really kills creativity.  I believe an alternative schooling that leads up to college would better keep creativity in tact.  Therefore i conclude that schooling does kill creating but it isn't college that kills it.
