I went to a community college too. I was told in the first few weeks, most of you will drop out, and not transfer. This tenured Ph.d was quite a jerk, but he was right.
I transferred to a four year university, and got that rediculious degree. I look back, and there was so much b.s., involved in getting that degree, I'm suprised I finished.
I finished because it was better than working full time. I had this beautiful, competitive girlfriend who I just couldn't be with anyone without a degree. I'll never forget the look on her face when she asked me, "How do you feel about getting a degree?" Honestly Ingrid(yes, unbelievable blond) it was a waste of time. In four years, I had maybe eight classes what I really felt were worth the money.
If I was to do it over again, I would have picked a degree I was interested in. I picked business administration . I thought it was the safe choice. I was wrong.
I went to graduate school for a year, and dropped out due to health problems, and I didn't believe the mantra they were spewing. I did pay back that 10 grand. I'm glad I payed it back because I need to file a chapter 7 soon.
(If anyone currently going to a community college reads this, hang in there. It will get depressing. Your buddies will fill your head with stories about epic parties at their school. Just finish those general education transfer courses. I actually had a great time in CC. In Anatony, and Physiology classes, I dated a lot. It was loaded with nursing students.)
