<p>My D’s first year advisor was very hands-off; she was one of those “I’ll sign anything” types. Her major advisor told her every semester that she had too demanding of a schedule and advised against it. My daughter insisted, got good grades, and then went through the same thing the following semester. Because my daughter was in an interdisciplinary major, she got wrong advice from her major advisor, time after time. (Who ever heard of a neuroscience major being advised AGAINST taking Calculus? I can only surmise that a psychology-based one doesn’t need it.) I’m obviously very critical of the advising my D got. She should have switched advisors but is the type not to want to hurt someone’s feelings.</p>
<p>I’m shocked that only 25% complete Latin Honors requirements. That means that almost everyone who completes them gets Latin Honors.</p>
