you get paid 8 or state minimum wage, and if you make more than that you're ass is getting laid off and replaced with one of the hundreds of people willing to work for 8. My friend who was making 12 just got laid off and replaced at Isupply yesterday.

Every now and then Rawr manages to come up with a post that makes me think he should run for elected office. As for me, I paid for a year at Christopher Newport University, didn't do so well, so now I am paying to get my general education classes out of the way at a community college.

That's the smartest way to do it, get the general stuff out of the way at a cheaper community college then transfer to a 4-year university. I've gotten a 2-year degree and am working on my bachelor's now, and also had 2 years of just partying/not studying in college which wasn't great (but it sure was fun O0)

Pretty much what I did my first year, sure was fun... Going to try to transfer back down there, but this damn history paper is kicking my ass. Anyone got any tips on comparing Roosevelt and Wilson's foreign policies leading up to WWII and WWI, respectively?

No, but there are websites that will write you a paper "as a guide" for a fee.

I had a scholarship for a university, but opted to attend a community college. Not only was it cheaper (even with the scholarship), but fit into my schedule better, was easier (most the classes dont have much of ---- to do with the major anyway), classes were smaller, and I could get away with more.

Was hoping more along the lines of decent reference sites (Not Wiki) with some primary sources. But yeah, community college is a lot easier

lol i think i wrote that paper when i was in college. Your schools library doesnt have a search engine for scholarly articles, etc?
