Benefits of Privatization and Trade Schools

As I explore the benefits of privatization for the analytical essay, I am keeping in mind the topics which I would like to explore. For my final research project I would like to discuss the benefits of alternative education institutions, such as technical high schools and colleges, magnet schools, and colleges such as Naropa University and Full Sail University. Full Sail is an example of a Private for profit institution which gives the students the option of studying topics such as film, entertainment business, music production, etc., something which cannot be found at other colleges. Without privatization, this would not be possible.

Research Topic

For the semester, I would like to focus my research on the difference between a traditional University (i.e. Rutgers) and more alternative places of continuing study. I would like to look at technical colleges and universities with more alternatively focused areas of study such as Naropa University in Boulder Colorado. Technical schools and integrated universities, like Naropa, provide a hands- on way to learn. I feel, and plan to argue, that schools which encourage courses more tailored to the individual provide a much more beneficial education.
