How to use college in a sentence?

1. Kevin Downey:

   She gave up a college education that people would give their right arm for. She gave up her youth. She gave up her friends. She gave up her close relationship with her family, why ? Because she believed she was building a technology company that would change the world. That's our story.

2. Jessica Lahey:

   Every single time we turn around and say, 'I'll just do that for you' or 'Here let me help you with that,' we are saying to them, 'I don't think you can do that for yourself,' and that is really damaging over time. We create a really helpless culture of kids so that now when I talk to college professors, they say these kids show up to college unable to handle anything on their own.

3. Sean Clegg:

   This upscale vs. downscale, college educated vs. non-college educated divide really correlates to vaccination too, don't think about it as just a Democrat vs. Republican fault line, think about it as a fault line between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated. When you draw the line there, you bring a lot of independents with you and even a few Republicans.

4. Valerie Adams-Bass:

   This is important because most Black children are taught by White and other non-Black teachers who often assume Black children are low achievers or dislike schools, black children are also overlooked for AP courses and other opportunities that expose and prepare them for college based on racial bias. Having more Black history knowledge meant youth had high career aspirations, perhaps in spite of teacher perceptions.

5. Mo Brooks:

   In a general sense, how it looks like we're headed, it looks like we're gon na have valid objections filed to the number of states on January 6, and we'll probably know sometime on January 7, after all the speeches and votes have taken place, what the Electoral College returns are.
