If you want to be a "serious" student, then go to Cal Poly Pomona where there are basically no distractions at all. Even if you go to a "party school", you can still be a "serious" student, it's not liked you're forced to party every day. Yes, you go to college to learn, but why not have some fun while you're at it since it's basically your last years before moving into the working world. And it's not like these party schools have a 80% dropout rate either, most of these "party" students seem to find the right balance between their education and socializing. |
i totally agree with you...i meant, you're being the person who you are, whether serious or party, it's YOU who control yourself. Besides, like nate said, cal poly SLO is not a bad school at all, so i don't think there's anything wrong with partying/socializing
