Do/ Did you like college?

For me, it seems alright, and pretty laid back. The fraternity I was vying for turned me down, and I'm looking for other activities to do there (besides drink :P), but so far it's been pretty good. What about you?

I loved it some much that I sometimes dream about the fun and wake up thinking I'm in my old dorm room... I've been out of undergrad for 5 years... It's sad, I know.

I loved college. I want to go back to college. In fact I'm probably going to. Try to go for Master's or possibly another degree.cd_rom

Had to go to community college due to my parents not coddling me and allowing me to suck on thier financial teet. I did not enjoy it. bunch of middle aged people and black people, (not a bad thing i just felt very out of place. I am very white). Had i gone through the whole college experience i would of probably loved it, (even though alot of my friends came home as know-it-all annoyances that all felt they had become drinking gods.)Hubadubalubahu

I'm at college right now. I'm enjoying it but the women are weird

I like it, I just wish I lived on campus

I feel like it would be way sweeter if I was in residency. Living at home has its benefits ($$$), but I want more of a change. So far it has been: go to class, leave, repeat. I'm not meeting new people or having the "college experience" that I think I should. I could always transfer in a few years, but I need money for that. Kind of getting ahead of myself though, I haven't even had an assignment marked yet! taylor888

You and me both, brother. I am living at home to save money, but my social life is practically non-existant.

I always thought about transferring, but it's never worth the money. Just stick in there, get your degree, and get out. I am four semesters in, with four more to go.

yes, I went to college, finished around 2007. I enjoyed it but I am sooooooooooooo happy to be done. I work less now than I did in college, and I get paid for the time I work instead of paying a school so I can bust my ass :P I actually live in the same town I went to school at, too, so the social scene hasn't changed too much.

College is great, but I almost pity anyone that thinks of it as "the good ol' days", almost as much as I pity people that say high school was the best time of their life :P

Can anyone here who majored in engineering say they enjoyed college? Always hear terrible things about the work load.

I didn't at first ,but after freshman year it grew on me.

fair enough, but in their (the posters above)defense you came off pretty damn arrogant anddefensive..."not coddling me and allowing me to suck on their financial teet" is not exactly postive phrasing of your situation :P Pretty much implies that anyone that went to college was coddled and spoiled

as for your parents, did they have the money? And did you have the grades? If yes, I would very damn wellblame my parents if they were able and did not send me college. If no, then whatever, college is not as expensive as people think and you can work and get done in 6-7 years like I did.

So far, yes. Lots of hot girls and things to do. There's even a gaming club that gets together and plays competitively.

I didn't really like college because I just found it boring and felt like I was wasting time. I did learn some stuff and I do want to go back eventually but for now I'd rather stay on a break from that.

I'm not a big fan. This is my first semester of college and between school work and my job I have very little time to do anything. It would probably be better if I didn't live at home. I am actually twice as unhappy as I was in high school. I hope it gets better. :PSF_KiLLaMaN

2 years into community college here. Not smart enough for university and I have no clue what I want to do so it would be a waste of money anyways (more so than community college). Its alright I guess, you aren't really forced to talk to other people like you are in elementary-high school which is fine with me since im not a social person at all.

Overrated, yes, but at my school, the clubs are anemic, and the only major extra-curriculars are the acappella groups and the community service organizations. Plus, you have to apply for these community service organizations and get interviewed by them before you even have a chance. I applied for one a few weeks ago (and received an e-mail stating that my "impressive" application was rejected). Living on campus was pretty much the only way to make friends, really.

I complained about not living on campus during my freshman year, but being a junior now, I really don't care anymore how dry and lonely my college experience is. Right now, I am just focusing on getting an internship for next summer and keeping my grades up. I hope my post-college life will be more enjoyable.

Hmm... well i hope it's like that. I'm going to be (most likely) majoring in electrical engineering at University of Maryland and i'm quite hesitant to deal with all the stress this major entails. I just don't want to have regrets or lack any type of social life due to my decision.

I feel like it would be way sweeter if I was in residency. Living at home has its benefits ($$$), but I want more of a change. So far it has been: go to class, leave, repeat.

^^^^^ meeee.

Im on my master degree and never had the "college experience".

People go to class, dont talk, and just leave.

Then again my major is tech stuff. If i was doing general studies im sure lots of hot 18 year old girls. But nope.

Im 28 and i plan on moving into the dorms just so i can find parties and young horny chicks.

yes,i do.

i love my college life.it is full of beautiful memory.
