My dad once told me this story when he was in college.He was in an huge class lecture hall with 1,500 people. The professor instructed them to look to their left and to their right. One would drop out of college because of grades and the other would drop out because of homesickness/disinterest in college.
Lately, I've been thinking about the concept of college. I do not understand the point. Faculty put on their fake, smiling masks giving us the illusion that we can be whoever we want to be with hard work. But, don't be fooled! You need to pay 30,000 a year with no actual guarantee of being the dream person that is built up in the head.
We have to take all these pointless Gen Eds and regular classes, spend 12-16 hour a semester, come so close in having a spontaenous combustion, and constantly worry about the future, it seems like it isn't even worth it.
This just proves another point: money does make the world go round. Money speaks louder than minds. That's all this world has come down to.
