I think that's great, if you wanna go, do it, but I think more than a few of the kids are doing it just for the experience, not for the education (like the girls, the drinking, etc.).
Hey, it's their money, heh.

Well I had 21 college credit hours when I went into college. English comp 1 and 2. Introduction to literature, general physcology, and a computer class. Some of my friends had 30-40 hours before going to school. Some of the classes they make people take in college for their Gen Eds are kind of stupid. I went to college after personally realizing I did not want to work at a pizza restaurant for the rest of my life.
