I know it's a challenge to balance all these things, but I have to wonder if the parents & society never expected them to, you know, DO ANYTHING EVER! It's mindboggling to me.

Texting is the worst, I have a ban on it & cells in general. Students are practically convulsing at the end of class from not texting during the time we meet. And I'm so glad you had a great SITs day! Congrats again:) Oh, the iPod isn’t even the 1/2 of it. Texting is the worst, I have a ban on it & cells in general.

Even though you didn't mention money I figured 10 years ago you could have used it too. Just like me, 10 years too late & 10 dollars too short.

I would understand if it were just me, I still get stopped by some people when I go into departments wondering if I'm lost & need help finding my instructor.

It's like how did you get into college if you're that bright. Granted, why are they in college in the first place if they don't want to do the work? I’m always so surprised by these kinds of stories.
