"Higher" Education

College is not all it's cracked up to be, folks. Really, after being at UC Davis for over a month now, it's quite obvious that college is nothing but high school with more drinking and more drugs but less studying and no parents. True, there are exceptions to this generality. However, a majority of the people I've seen devote their time to "all play and no work".

Honestly, why have we come to college? Are we not here first and foremost to learn, to educate ourselves for future careers? Of course recreation is an important part of any person's life, but it simply seems that many of the students I encounter place very little weight on their schoolwork. What a pity.

I look forward to Christmas break.
