Student Loans
The chosen viewpoints that I have chosen are the New York Times and The Journal of Economics. The New York Times focused more on reducing student loans. It did not provide much information, such as the different types of student loans and it can affect a student in the long run. It also focused more on opinion rather than facts. The New York Times doesn’t specifically explain why students take loans and do some take too much or too little. They explained what is considered in order to receive a student loan. The Journal of Economics explained the rise of student loan. They explained how college is used as an investment where sometimes you lose and sometimes you gain. Journal of Economics have data and graphs that explained the rise of student loans and the money that most graduates can make. The Journal also explained on why some people do not attend college and if they do the reasons for dropping out. Both articles were good but the Journal of Economics provided more information than the New York Times.
