High Schools versus Colleges High schools and colleges are both foundations of a fundamental future, but while similar in many ways they are also different in many others. Students, who have enjoyed high school for its fun lunches and flexibility, may have nothing of the sort when going to college. While high school lunches are filled with everyone that they may have been associated with, when going to college lunches may become a very brief and unsociable event. Centuries of educational evolution have brought fourth different aspects in changes. Change is inevitable, on the other hand some similarities will forever accompany education. These similarities and differences include the people, schedules, and cost. Students, whose whole high school career has been surrounded by familiar faces, do not always get the luxury of being accompanied to college by the same people. When beginning college, the differences between the two institutions are obvious. The nice, sweet old lady that was called “librarian” is now replaced with a student worker. The principal that used to walk up and down the hallways to make sure that everything was in order is now replaced with a president or dean whom is rarely seen. Although the differences may be obvious, the similarities are instant.
