I was unable to record this video due to COVID-19. My roommates departed from Gainesville amidst all of the events happening in society. I was unable to record this video that was not my Web cam, therefore I made a script for my Elevator Pitch #2. Therefore, I provided my first pitch at the bottom of the screen.
"Hello My Name is Jake Norman. I have a proposed government subsidy for qualifying students allowing them the opportunity to receive discounted college tuition based off of their prior qualifications. These students will be given the opportunity to receive government funded aid for their hard work in High School. These qualifications will include: Qualifying GPA, Standardized testing, athletic participation, club participation and involvement in their community.
By allowing these students the opportunity for a government subsidy, we will create a "kick-start" environment for these students upon graduation. Many young professionals are put at a savings disadvantage after graduating, as these professionals spend the majority of their full-time checks paying back their student loans.
By giving these students this opportunity to ignite and kick-start their careers after graduating, we will incentivize the opportunity for these students to give more effort to their academics in high school and become a more well rounded person."

Hi jake,
ReplyDeleteI think your idea is great and would allow for students to have an opportunity they would not have had before. It is important that we are allowing the new generation to thrive without the weight of student loans as soon as they get out of schools. Starting this process in high school would provide the proper background to let students choose what colleges they want to end up going to which will help them in the long run.
Hey Jake,
ReplyDeleteI think that your idea is incredible, I think that many students would need some help like that to have the opportunity of not having to worry or work many hours just to pay for it. I think that it is important for students just to have to worry about study or work just a few hours to make some money.
