  1. So I've been doing summer school at my college for like a month now and I've decided college sucks and I hate it. I was wondering if any of you had any
    A. Advice
    B. Funny college memories
    C. Complaints

    Idk also hi I've been gone for like ten years how are u guys 
     
  2. wutcha going to college for?
     
  3. funny stories? one time i had the flu during finals week and i collapsed out of my chair and passed out in the library while trying to write a political science paper.


    ...college sucks.
     
  4. I dont think he was asking what you're playing in college, unless you're majoring in basketball
     
  5. College is for snobs.

    -Republicans
     
  6. Oh haha sorry that's what my scholarship is for so that's my usual answer but I wanna major in marketing right now
     
  7. Marketing is not too bad. I'd get the core classes (english, math, and so on) out of the way first then decide on major towards the end. A lot of people change plans mid way through college. I went for civil engineering, but ended up going towards mechanical engineering. Chem classes were a lot of fun though but it depends a lot on your professor as is every other class. Try to research your professors before hand. Read reviews, pick ones that know their stuff and are decent graders. When I first started college I got a guy who didn't speak english and another with brain damage that really effected my college experience and grades early on.
     
  8. Yeah the first two years I don't get to pick my own classes at all which kind of sucks but hopefully my academic advisor knows what she's doing haha.

    And yeah my prof. right now sucks he's like so moody and pretentious. I feel bad because our class is filled with internationals and then freshman so most of us are learning this stuff as we go and that's not what he expected to be having.

    The thing that sucks too is I guess some profs. Have beef against student athletes and think we are lazy and have everything handed to us so I'll have to be super careful if I get a teacher like that too. Student athletes actually have it so hard
     
  9. Just drink your problems away.

    Apple juice, of course!
     
  10. The economics teacher I had was actually the most pretentious teacher I've seen. I remember he made fun of a girl during one of his lectures for having a cheap model of phone and then kicked her out of his class after she started crying. Told her to not come back on the way out.
     
  11. Ew that's so rude and annoying he's an economics teacher he should have known times are tough
     
  12. He spent a lot of class time recruiting people for his golf team and checking his stocks everyday. He didn't teach much since he read off of slide shows that were available for free online and used YouTube videos.
     
  13. I never understood how this scholarship system works in USA. If your college teaches for marketing, why would they give scholarships for basketball? What has one to do with the other? :? .
     
  14. You can still get an acedemic degree. But schools offer scholarships for sports because sports bring in money when the teams are good. The scholarships usually pay for the student's acedemics so they play said sport and take acedemic classes.
     
  15. Yeah they basically pay for you to come play a sport and make them money. In return you get a small amount of hand money and then all your college expenses paid for. It's basically a job.
     
  16. Yup
     
  17. I'm majoring in Fine Arts

    - Liberals
     
  18. College isn't for everybody 
     
  19. Start an illegal gang and take over the college. Use the Dean's office to co-ordinate your drug smuggling operation.
    Profit. Schooling no longer needed.
