Value of a College Education
There was never a time when expert
knowledge was so highly prized and so highly
compensated.
High wages for untrained labor will
tempt many a young man to discount the value .
of a college education. But such an education
representing the work of four years, viewed
merely as an investment of time and of meney
is equal, in earning capacity to an estate of .
^more than $50,000.
. W'hat estate comparable with this can the
parent of average means hope to give or leave
to his son? What young man can acquire
that much value in the same time at any other
business.
Education fits one for a life whose pos
sibilities are limited only by his capacity and
character. Eventually for the untrained' there
awaits the slavery of ignorant and undirected
effort. ,
Clemson College brings within the reach
of every young man in South Carolina the ben
efits and possibilities of a technical education.
At Clemson College a boy from thp humblest
home in South Carolina can prepare himself?
for a high place in the service of his state and
nation.
