Do You Guys End Up Teaching Yourself Everything?

I went to U of Chicago, and had a similar experience; I found myself skipping lectures just to learn material on my own. I got sick with mono my second year and dropped out and I just can’t convince myself to go back. My parents will pay my tuition, but why bother? I do miss my old friends though; it was nice to be surrounded by a bunch of other smart, hardworking people.

Recently, I’ve been teaching myself college. I’m hugely insecure about this decision, but with what it costs to do college the traditional way, it seems to make the most sense. And there are so many great learning resources out there, too; thanks world wide web.
