Since I know poli sci is useless, i'd rather not be enslaved with a 37k plus debt burden . <br /><br />I might go back to school for technology , its far more satisfying to learn programming then what some opinionated professor thinks .Ksouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02278753263862982258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4284893230469697578.post-35743949304406820102012-03-30T00:44:16.906+07:002012-03-30T00:44:16.906+07:00Hi Ksou,
You made sense, and that's why that ...Hi Ksou,<br /><br />You made sense, and that's why that professor hated you. American academics are some of the dumbest people on earth. Though I never finished college, I have had brief stints teaching at half a dozen universities, so I'd rather hang out with beekeepers, truck drivers, hairdressers and parking lot attendants, etc., than your average professor.Linh Dinhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328959360983573810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4284893230469697578.post-72559450854732176272012-03-30T00:35:13.741+07:002012-03-30T00:35:13.741+07:00Hi Linh
I only(only!, shows how times have change...Hi Linh<br /><br />I only(only!, shows how times have changed) have 12k in debt, so I consider myself lucky that i'm getting off this scam called college . <br /><br />But I did learn a very important lesson , which I'm sure you already know, theirs a real disconnect between academics and the reality they study . During class I said even pushing for clean air was difficult since polluters can just move elsewhere( often across state lines) , the instructor proceeded to tell me that these clean air standards would become a world wide thing... Yeah India and China are going to willing adopt clean air standards that we can't even enforce in the US.Ksouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02278753263862982258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4284893230469697578.post-34571819129307695222012-03-29T18:42:45.026+07:002012-03-29T18:42:45.026+07:00Hi Ksou,

Still, it's a shame you got an F for making sense.<br /><br />LinhLinh Dinhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328959360983573810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4284893230469697578.post-31342762075540079752012-03-29T18:13:01.781+07:002012-03-29T18:13:01.781+07:00Hi Linh
Time to take that last unemployment check...Hi Linh<br /><br />Time to take that last unemployment check and invest it in some lotto tickets, that's what qualifies for hope in late capitalism .<br /><br />In other news I failed my poli sci class since I wrote a paper in which I said it would be impossible to stop global warming via congress since the republican half doesn't even think it exist . It looks like I'll be back at the end of an unemployment line soon enough, so much for my stint as a college student !Ksouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02278753263862982258noreply@blogger.com
