GRAD STUDENTS BE WARE!!!
if you are planing on going to grad school here are some tips to keep in mind as you progress in your endeavors for "higher learning."
1. if for some reason you get any corrections or alterations on a paper or report. Make sure you list whoever added so much as punctuation as a co-author. If you don't, this member of whatever will have grounds to bring you up on charges of misconduct or even plagiarism. But that is their total and complete right.
2. schools that preach suicide prevention probably have a problem with suicide. More than likely it is due to the insane amount of red tape it takes to get done with the programs they have set up. Here at tech we had a student kill themself with only a month to graduation... and they also had a job lined up.. and a good life. You want to know what probably did that poor guy in? All the bureaucratic BULLSHIT!! you have to go through here to get a fucking degree! The fact that you cant get an answer for one question without being in 3 different buildings and maybe 4 or 5 different offices. The number of times you have to print out a 150+ page document for different people is just fucking retarded... but that's what the school wants..
and you wonder why there is a push for suicide prevention...
3. The professor is always right. no mater if they are wrong by 5 or so resources. they are still right and you have no grounds to question them. Also along this strain, there is no way to question professors outside of the class room for conduct or behaviors towards students or the way they conduct a class... again see the professor is always right.
no matter fucking what.
4. if you dont have the knowledge already, it will not be given to you. If you dont have a solid understanding of what is going on in a subject its your own damn fault and the teacher is not to be held responsible for whatever you dont understand. You will be held responsible for anything that doesn't make sense or is confusing even if this is the first time you have ever seen it. The professor is not to be bothered with such crap.
So just a few things to keep in mind as you head into the amazing realms of "Higher learning".... higher learning my fucking ass....
