A great thread with comments that I would not have fully understood 30+ years ago but certainly do now.

I would add:

getting up in the morning. Unless you work nights it is fair to say that workers are a day animal and college students nocturnal.

and

hat work requires less pure abstract brain power and more consideration of interpersonal issues. Not much discussion of Nietzsche vs. the Book of Job in my office but lots of consideration of how to get someone to work (play?) nicely with everyone else.

I think colleges should have a required course to study Dilbert to prepare students for the work force…
