10 Tips for College Students


Our society today has programed high school students to either go to college or get a job after graduation. Many parents stress that going to college and getting a degree is the key to "making it" in the real world. With such an emphasis placed upon higher education, many freshmen enter college not really knowing why they are there. When asked why they decided to go to college many are unsure responding with a simple, "that's what I'm supposed to do" statement. Without a little guidance, this uncertainty can lead incoming freshmen to fall off the deep end...partying seven nights a week and completely negelecting their academic obligations. Need a little help figuring out this whole college experience thing? Check out these 10 tips for college students. Even if you're a college senior, they're worth a look because hey, you still have a few semesters left!

I like your blog, but I have to say I wasn't crazy about the 10 Tips for College Students link. It sounded to me like a college student wrote them in the respect that they had better things to do than go to class all the time. I feel strongly about attendance, and it seemed to me that the person who wrote the article had a great time with their college experience, but is that experience one they should suggest to others?
