Can you imagine losing your graduation day? Losing your Prom? Your Spring Break? Losing your final sports season? Losing your last chance to earn a scholarship? Or losing the opportunity for a fond farewell to lifelong friends? That’s what the Class of 2020 just endured. But the hits keep on coming for them… Now, they arrive at their college campuses only to find them empty with life moving to online education and social distancing. The experience of venturing out into “college life” is lost on this class. They won’t be able to attend the homecoming game, the pep rallies, the live music at the local venue. College is not the same for the Class of 2020. If they decided to enter the workforce instead of college, then they were welcomed by record unemployment and civil unrest across the country.
With all this unfair treatment, the Class of 2020 deserves a break. If Bernie Sanders believes he has a plan to pay for college for everyone, then I believe the wealthiest nation in the world can certainly pay for one year of college for the Class of 2020. We at Inspire America would like to open the campaign for United States Department of Education to grant every member of the Class of 2020 high school graduating class a one year waiver on all college tuition fees or vocational training program fees to licensed US institutions.
