As I enjoy my last two weeks as a "true teen" I have been thinking about the past 20 years of my life and I began thinking about how life is a series of "challenges."
Why is it that I am at an accredited college and yet others expect so little of me? Isn't life SUPPOSED to be challenging? Why is it acceptable to get by with the minimum number of credits, or the easiest classes offered? Just because some individuals choose to take the easy route, what makes my advisor, my professor, and my peers think that that's the route I want to take.
Maybe the expectation is different at higher level institutions, but if our country needs hardworking, highly motivated individuals, why does our country expect so little of us when it comes to education?
I'm beginning to think that "challenge" has many different definitions.
