Transcript:
Mom: "Home from class already?" Luann: "I have a ton of homework" Mom: "Really? On the first day?" Luann: "Gotta figure out my timing, plan where to park, rethink my wardrobe..." Mom: "Ah, the first week of college is all about logistics" Luann: "Those college-prep classes in high school were useless"
Do they teach pre-college students how to deal with the challenges of attending college today? Like time management for one. Or, how to check out the college campus. Or, how to get along with your room-mate, etc. That wouldn’t have helped me as my first class (and most all of my freshman and sophomore classes) was in the evening and the community colleges I attended did not have on-campus housing. However, I sure could have used an Intro class on how to research and write assigned papers! (I had a college prep class my Junior year in high school, but I could find nary a note about how to go about this!). I guess Luann has learned the hard way, but perhaps that is just the way she needed to learn about her new life as a college student! ;)
