So I met with my advisor today about picking classes and we got into this discussion...
Normally when you go to college you take classes and try to finish in 4 years, depending on how well you do and how intense your major is. Due to colleges being a business, and in it to make money, they have found the ultimate plan to screw us all.
First, they encourage older professors to retire. Second, they over enrole, bringing in a lot more students than usual. This means that with less professors and more students the classes will be huge, and in turn very hard to get into. None of my friends are taking more than 15 credits, and 12 is the minimum to be a fulltime student. What this means is that since kids can't get the classes they need, they must stay an extra year to finish their degree.
They do this because they get more money from less professors they have to pay, as well as more students enrolling. Also, staying an extra year means thats one more year of tuition, housing, etc money that they get (which by the way keeps increasing). It keeps getting worse every year. This one class I need the professor retired and instead of being offered twice a year its only offered once, and is even smaller and harder to get into. Its just bullshit. How can they call it a 4 year degree when its not even possible to finish in 4 years? I even took a few summer courses. On top of that it keeps eating into my jeep lift fund. Those bastards! I thought I'd only have to take 4 years of hippie college kids now I have to go through 5. WTF.
..oh and on my way to the commuter parking lot I saw some guy who was wearing a foxtail. Like he literally had it attached to his pants. Is this some culture I don't know about?
