"So it is with colleges. Colleges differ, but they're nothing like the stamp of destiny so many imagine them to be. People aren't what some admissions officer decides about them at seventeen. They're what they make themselves.
Indeed, the great advantage of not caring where people went to college is not just that you can stop judging them (and yourself) by superficial measures, but that you can focus instead on what really matters. What matters is what you make of yourself. I think that's what we should tell kids. Their job isn't to get good grades so they can get into a good college, but to learn and do. And not just because that's more rewarding than worldly success. That will increasingly be the route to worldly success."

*Claps*
Heh. My English AND American Government teacher both basically said the same thing. Its not so much the grades that matter. They don't. Just more rather what you get out of it, what the processes of working teaches yourself as a person (and basically what you said yourself). And while somewhat hijacking what you said, I'll take the time now to gloat about my relatively solid teachers for seniors... ^_^[/rambling]
Mm... page 490, folks. Almost time for 'The Third' to say 'bye-bye'...
Edit: *Goes to finish hw*

It's not tradition, it's what you said we should do.

Well isn't that how some traditions start? We've done it for the last two, I'm pretty sure.

All you need is a personality and social capability, otherwise referred to as street smarts. The people that can't step up to this life socially aren't going to be the future CEO's and all that.

Lyle, Slick is actively thinking he wants to come to my college next year.
How awesome is that.
