Grad school? Who me?
It has been 11 years since I set foot in a classroom, well to be taught. I've done contracts in schools before, but that's different. This time I am in the graduate educational Technology program at NC Central University. Grad school seems like its going to be a breeze. I have alot of experience with the hardware and software used in classrooms nowadays, having done consulting work NCCU and a few other schools in the area in the past, in addition to my corporate experience (same equipment, older kids :-)
One interesting thing that I've experienced thus far is far less books than undergrad, and so far all my professors emphasize "There are right or wrong answers" unless of course you don't know and can't talk a good game. My goal is to finish in a year and a half (by challenging several of the lower level classes) and graduate summa cum laud? (glad I don't need to know how to spell it to get it). Wish me luck!
And you know some things change, but some things stay the same. This time I was able to register for class and financial aid online, so that saved tremendous time that during my undergrad years were spent in long lines in the summer heat. The things that stayed the same...My classes got dropped over the weekend before classes start and I had to re-register (but online though-yay) There were still waaaaay more women than men on campus.There still plenty of hot (but young and insecure) women (well, girls) baring pretty much all that they legally can. Straight out of a rap video wardrobe, that can never seemed to be pulled down (to cover) enough if they are not met with curious eyes. Funny and sad, first time away from mommy and daddy and they choose to go that route. You thought THAT would be cute? There should be a message board where parents could see the result of efforts. Well, maybe not that harsh, because some of that is growth, or a "phase", then after realizing the the kind of guys that "all out there" revealing clothes attract, things change.

It is sad, and in a few years...my 13 year old will be going to college...she eyeballs that type of "wear" when we go to the store, but she knows better than to ask...and I wonder sometimes...when she goes off to college will it be all out clothing war? I'm hoping my teachings will stick, but the way women dress these days, I'm afraid she'll think that mess is normal.
