Yep but the ones you'll meet going out at the clubs aren't the crowd you're likely to take home/form a lasting relationship with...more often than not they're either slags or already attached

And secondly - If its Uni, call it uni.

College is something dropouts go to if they can't get into a sixth form and school is a miserable prison for people who can't drive, drink or smoke yet.

A university is a very different animal, and deserves to be differentiated as such, in my opinion.   Yep - it is THAT much better

 my School doesnt have a Sixth form and there is nothing wrong with going College. University comes after College.

[wEvil]

You're absolutely correct - there are many sixth forms that are terrible compared to some colleges.

And i was kind of joking about everything except the school and uni parts.

School is that bad, nothing more than a bad excuse to socially condition everyone and in my experience the "teaching" empowers you to learn very little of value.

I.E, it's a total waste of everyones' time.  An outmoded, outdated concept from the victorian era.

Uni is that good.  Albeit there are some things to iron out, such as the laughable loans system and allocation of resources to each department plus general administration problems, however generally speaking it allows you to learn whatever you want and learn it pretty damn quick.

It annoys me a great deal, then, when i hear attending University to be called "going to school".   Its a very demeaning referral.

[Redfang]

I'm not wanting school to start, even if there are some good things in it. Lucky I don't have to go to school for almost one and half month.

[CODEDOG ND]

ummm...I like school.  What?  Do you guys actually listen to the teachers, study, and do the homework!?!?!?!

I find school very easy except maybe english, but I hate that class anyways and I never read the books in there, maybe that is why I made a B in there last year.  And those exams are stupid and pointless.  Give me a study packet for english and math so I can remember what we read and borrow some sparknotes or ask the math teacher to help me on every question on one of those damn packets and I'm good to go.  History, is easy and last year I read my U.S. History book twice before we finished it once.  And the other classes, as long I don't get into trouble and go to ISS or AEP, or miss more that a certain number of days...well...hehe I'm excempt.  That and if you make a certain percentage on any End of Course Exam you are excempt from those classes as well, and that is why I only had to take two exams this year.

What's the difference between a college and a university anyway? I thought the words were interchangeable...

And that's completely healthy

A college is relatively small place that does A-levels.  A university is a big place that does degree courses. But a sub-section of a university can be called a college.

Shrike, you're nuts. There is no way in hell that I'm gonna go back to school, without having to bring in a small portion of the army to get me out of my house.

No s**t Sherlock  

"We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or men of science." --Rockefeller's General Education Board (1906)

The public Schools Systems in both Britain and America were started by industrialists to condition childeren to be better workers and consumers from an early age, as well as to give a chance for Prigs (think along the lines of Bush, Ashcroft and Robertson) to shove their political agenda down the throats of the future generation. Hell take a look at America's Abstinence only education program.


I consider it a great personal achievement and measure of mental strength for someone to come out of a Public/State school not a consumerist sheep, intelligent and with thoughts of their own.


If you want a good read, read The Underground History of American Education by John Taylor Gatto; Teacher of the Year 1991 or check out his website.
