@sdkb01 @AsleepAtTheWheel I agree that what I’ve said above can be perceived as selfish, but I think not! Of course, who doesn’t want their share in life’s stronghold of financial stability and success? I am all for learning for the sake of learning; I merely mentioned pre-professionalism because I do think as part of a college it’s important that students are able to write persuasively and think critically, but also be given the chance to exercise those skills outside of the classroom. I’m someone who is looking to pay for college myself as I’ve grown up in a hard neighborhood and my family isn’t all too well off, so the whole career-oriented aspect of a college and how well they will be able to prepare me for the future is something that retains heavy weight in my school choice. But, nevertheless, thank you for the input!
