College Free Write

I thought that Rick Perlstein's essay was a little difficult to understand some of the points he was trying to make.  He believes that college is not as good as it use to be.  It was difficult to relate to any of his points because I currently am a college student and love it and find that the college experience is amazing.  I liked Weinger's essay more because he made very good points and counterarguments.  I agree that college is different than what it use to be, but not in a negative way.  I agree with Weingner's statement when he states, "It is simply the signs of a new reality he does not understand and therefore rejects."
