[QUOTE="NECowboy, post: 1378496, member: 25360"] I think one of the biggest pieces of advice to kids going to college is don't listen to your professors. Universities and professors seem to have this liberal agenda they indoctrinate and push hard. How that got entrenched in academia I do not know but because college kids are so gullible it's dangerous. College kids then forget what the real world is like and where they came from because they are in a bubble (in the real world you don't stumble into class in your pjs at 10 am, play games on your iphone during class, take an afternoon nap, then party til 2 am - you WORK!!! Professors hardly work and are insulated from most of the pressures of the economy by tenure and their beautifully manicured campuses and $$tudent loan debt so they can afford to be liberal hypocrites. By golly though that same professor will complain that their low 6 figure salary is not high enough, that they should be able to spend even more time on their "research" (free trips to Italy to "examine and analyze" women's rights is post-modern Italy) again all financed on $$tudent loan debt. While they encourage the student loan debt ridden kids to go work for Americorps, dedicate their lives to volunteering and low paid feel good liberal jobs, or continue their studies at University X's grad school and continue to finance their low six figure salaries (where 1000 phDs compete for one liberal arts professorship job). I didn't fall for any of their games and was not gullible like my peers. I worked a lot of hours outside of school both as internships to give me a leg up on a real world job and to help pay for the same. I was always aware that college was not the real world and that the real world did not owe me anything. The sooner kids, adults, etc learn this the better our country will be again!! [/QUOTE]
