    A Demand for Fairness and Equality in Higher Education

    Have you ever dreamt of a world where education was free? Or possibly a world where everyone was

    given equal opportunities to succeed? This ideal world, this utopia, should be the world we live in; however, that is

    not the case. In our world many students cannot afford higher education, even less those who are victimized because

    of their race or ethnicity. Did you know Hispanic and African American students have the lowest retention rates of

    students in the whole country? According to a report from Elizabeth Taylor, author of the article Minority Students

    More Likely to Attend Community Colleges, In Massachusetts only 6% of the Hispanic population attended college

    and subsequently only 5% of the African American race attended college. We demand higher education become

    more accessible to all students, but more specifically to students who are victimized and put at a disadvantage

    because of race and ethnicity in comparison to others. We petition for a stop to the relentlessly increasing

    tuition rates and create a truly neutral environment for higher education.
