I should have gone to a private college...

I've probably said this before, but I'm gonna say it again...

I should have gone to a private college because there, the professors maybe would give a fsck about me and my career...

At my current public college I am nothing more than a number. And while some professors really do care about their students, most are there not to teach, but to do research. I've got a couple of teachers that are so bad, I can almost guarentee you that they have brought in over $100,000 to the engineering school and that is the only reason why they are still there...

It gets really annoying now that I am finally in specialized courses for my major. I'm mean these schmucks, while they do know their stuff, can't convey any of it to their students. And the administration won't do anything about it because said teacher just bought them new office furniture with a recent grant...

I wish I would have seen this coming freshman year... Now I'm too far in to get out... :\

Well, I did go to a private college ... and, I can say this ... the professors do care. Sometimes, too much. As in, I don't make it to a class, I get called at home, asked if I'm ok, if there's anything they can do ...

It's nice, but occasionally annoying.
