Just Your Average 68-Year-Old College Freshman
“This is not high school.” is a mantra we heard often. Professors routinely warned that we’re responsible for chapters not covered during lectures.
At the beginning of the semester they would give a running countdown to the “drop date.” Up until then, students can drop a class without getting an “incomplete” slapped on their transcripts. I bailed on Philosophy of Religion—the sheer amount of work required by fifteen credit hours was more than I had expected. I didn’t get a refund on tuition. Unlike most students I don’t have to explain my drop to my dear parents, may they rest in peace.
