HOW ARE YOU GOING TO PAY YOUR UGRAD DEBT? GUEST BLOG BY VAL. BACHELOR

Students are asking the $21,000.00 question -  how do I pay off my college debt?  $21,000.00 is the average amount a student borrows to pay for college. Here’s my question: why aren’t student loans receiving the same attention, same care and the same forgiveness as every other loan in America? Right now, over 80 % of college students graduating this year will do so without a job. As a result, a record number of college graduates are having to move back in with their parents and take jobs that under-utilize their skills to pay bills and their debt. But, sadly, we have no choice.

Decisions are being made on the economy – decisions that are affecting us right now and will continue to affect generations to come.  As young leaders, this is our economy and it needs to start working for us. It’s time to stop asking questions and start doing something about the current situation we are in.

Students played an integral role in movements that fought for social justice and shaped policy that helped working families. The civil rights movement and the fight to end apartheid in South Africa were successful because youth stood up against the injustice here and abroad.

This is our time.

Right now there are thousands of people across the country fighting for an economy that will benefit working families and students. We as young people need to be at the front lines of this struggle or else the cost of college will continue to skyrocket while the dream of a promising career will never become a reality.

 What can you do? Start by Clicking here to sign up and  stand with students from all over DC to demand Congress starts creating jobs for us. As DC-area students we are at ground zero of this fight. We need to come together with a unified voice so our voice is strong. We are the leaders this country needs and we will fight for our future. Also, follow us on twitter: @whatisourfuture.
