No, I don't think young people today value their education as much as Sara does. Today education is more of an assumption than a choice. It is a prerequisite for nearly all occupations, unlike during the early twentieth century. Sara saw it as an open door for a multitude of possibilities. She dreamed of owning a nice house and buying nice clothes, etc. With an education, it is possible to obtain an occupation to allow her to be financially liberated. Also, she enjoyed learning about topics she was interested in, mainly psychology. Today students learn simply to get a degree which will then help them get a better, higher paying, job than their rivals. Mainly, the situations in America have changed.
