Ms. Snark's youth astounds The Professor....
Unless you have opted for a five-year major, there is absolutely no reason why you should take more than four years to graduate from the ivy league or four-year community college.
Sigh...
The Professor's classes are filled with lumps of useless pale mall-rat flesh, flunking out and accomplishing nothing but a party life.
The Professor's recommendation for incoming freshmen:
Before setting one foot on campus, write an 500-word essay, specifying your goals and aspirations for the next four years of your life. Be totally honest, no BS, please.
Show your pearls of wisdom to your parents. If they yank the checkbook from under you, then they're doing themselves and you a favor.
And if you are lucky, there may be a few mall-rat jobs left.
On a serious note:
Why bother going to college if your heart is somewhere else? There are less expensive ways to grow and mature--though, these days, The Professor does not recommend the armed services, unless you are prepared to kill and/or be killed.
De tasselling corn over the summer might offer a few insights.
If you like working with your hands and dislike reading books, then why on earth would you want to waste the next four, five, six years of your life, bumbling around in the ivied halls?
