Every time I mention music she responds, "then Y in the hell I'm paying 4 that private school?" music was the reason i left college (and i did go to music school during my college hiatus, although it was not a degree program). if that is what you would rather be doing, you won't get as much out of college because you won't want to be there. of course, there are a lot of colleges with great music programs. you could do that. a psychotic is someone who just figured out what's going on | |

Keep your grades up and then your parents can't complain about much. If you really want to be a musician, you'll find a way to make it work.

That's the bliss of education in the U.S. There's Junior College where you can take classes with a good teacher:student ratio and figure out what you want to do without the University fees. It's more affordable. You can then transfer and finish a Bachelor's degree.
When I took Western Civilization at the University it was stadium level. Great professor, kept the class under control. For mandatory classes, the student volume is high, thus the animosity. Most of the other classes weren't that crowded. Except art history. That was a pain in the butt. Always had talkers around me. This was before cell phones. | |
