Extra Credit

~George Washington Carver 

Personally, I agree with this statement. Many things in life are acquired by having a strong education, and "unlocking the golden door of freedom" can be added to this list. Education leads to freedom, quite frankly. If you didn't have an education, you would not make the same choices you make in your life. An education gives you the ability to make smart, reasonable, and responsible decisions. You know how to do so many things, all thanks to the education you were given. These things that you were taught has opened so many possibilities, and you may not have even known it. An education is a privilege, and what you choose to do with it can make all the difference. The best example of this is the man that once said this statement, George Washington Carver. His education led him to end his slavery and become a chemist, educator, and horticulturist. His education led to his freedom. The more you know, the better your decisions, the more freedom, because making good decisions gives you freedom to do what is right for you. Any education is beneficial, and freedom would not be possible without it.
