So, then make the rule that it must be from an accredited institution.
I’m pretty sure UoP is accredited. Requiring a degree seems a little too far. A lot of people don’t need them and they are expensive.
Maybe require community service? Everyone at my high school had to do community service hours to graduate.
See, I think it has to be something that's going to lead to lifelong contribution from the individual. Community service is great, but it doesn't achieve that. I agree with you about college, but I am not sure what a 3rd good option is.
I think my 2 options would stay on the table and I agree we need a 3rd. The military may not be the lifelong impact that I was talking about, but if you're willing to fight for me, you deserve citizenship. College doesn't guarantee success, but it greatly increases the odds. I don't know what a good 3rd option is.
