I read an entry from my classmate’s blog, Don't Mess With
Texas, It's the Law and her entry is about how Proposition one will be
passed which means a Medical School will be built in Austin. Her entry can be
found here. During my high school years, I have always wanted to
be a doctor and seeing as how college is very expensive, I wanted to stay here
in Austin since it will save me a lot more money but the problem was that there
were no medical schools here in Austin which meant that I would have to
transfer soon. This was just the thought I used to have but I no longer have
anymore because I no longer want to be a doctor. However, I still want to be in
some kind of field relating to the natural sciences.
I think that the proposition one is a great
idea because it will influence people to pursue their medical career since it
can be a better access for us Austinites. My classmate mentions that there’s a
medical school in Houston and it benefits that city’s economy. I think that’s
great and Austin should do the same since this country’s economy is in need of
help anyways. I also agree with my classmate that this state will also benefit from
it by getting more healthcare workers. Being in the healthcare field is one of
the most important careers because it will always be needed since there are
people who will need to be taken care of daily. I also think that it’s great
that this proposition also wants to help improve healthcare here in Texas since
this state has one of the poorest healthcare systems in the nation. Along with
my classmate, I am excited to hear that this proposition will bring great
things to this state.
