The other day I dragged my friend aside and forced him to fill out his graduation application. He's known for some time that he'll be graduating in December. I've only just figured it out.
What could possibly hold somebody back from graduating? Paying back student loans? As scary as that may be, I think $42 a month is feasible.
I worked in the 'real world' and trust me, all the phonies and fakes that infiltrate the campus are there, too. They graduated and got real jobs.
Thinking about my own situation, I can't wait. I'm almost ready to drop the whole bit now and go seek my fortune. A degree? My father, who holds a Master's, always said a degree got him nothing. My mother, who never finished her degree, thinks all her life's failures are because she is degree-less.
But, better safe than sorry.
