Essay about large univ vs small college

My essay about “Is a large university better than a small college?”

(My first essay (Please just read. Do not proofread.)

From my experience, a large university is better than a small collage.

Firstly, a large university enables students to have broader viewpoints by communicating with students who have different interests and skills. A large university has several faculties, such as engineering, agriculture, and economics. Universities are the only place where people have time, energy, and change to exchange ideas with one another, without thinking about the social ranks.

Secondly, graduates from large universities have advantage in finding jobs. A large university has a lot of graduates in the business world. This means there is a strong tie. For example, some companies prioritize students of specific universities because they feel the corporate culture fits with such students. After entering a company, graduates from the same university tend to communicate more with those from different universities.

Thirdly, a large university will survive for more years. It is very pitiful if universities that we graduate from disappear. In Japan, many universities and colleges cannot gather enough students because of low birthrate and the existence of too many universities. They are on the verge of abolishment. Most large universities are famous and prestigious enough to gather students. There are great number of graduates who do not mind donating to continue the presence of the university.

I am a graduate of one of the large universities. More than 25 years since graduation, there is no influence of my university on my life any more, but I am proud that my university is still as popular as at the time of my graduation.

(My second essay (Please proofread. I rewrote my essay by myself)

My experience indicates that a large university is better than a small collage, as a graduate of one of the large universities in Japan.

First of all, the existence of several faculties in a large university, not only one or two, enables the students to communicate with those having different interests and skills. This helps the students nurture broader viewpoints through idea exchange with one another, without thinking about the social ranks. I would not have been able to take advantage of getting acquainted with engineering, agriculture, and law students.

Secondly, the fact that there are a lot of graduates in the business world has a positive effect on students’ job-seeking activities. Innumerous number of graduates have a strong tie, resulting in more frequent communication with those from the same university. Some companies prioritize students of specific universities because of ease in working with such students.

Thirdly, a large univertisy has less chance of abolishment. It is very pitiful if our universities disappear. The low birthrate and the abundance of universities in Japan recently plunges some universities and colleges to the verge of abolishment. On the other hand, the fame and prestige that most large universities have still enable gathering of students. Even if large universities become less popular, there are graduates who do not mind donating money to continue its presence.

It is true that various merits of small colleges are widely recognized, such as homey (?) atmosphere and concentration of students of the same interests. However, the above-mentioned superiority of large universities make them surpass small colleges.
