The first A I ever got in college, when I struggled at first, was in Philosophy. I was told my arguments were philosophically coherent and that I had the ability for it. I then made the deans list the next semester. After achieving that pinnacle, I became interested in internet forums. The rest of the college I was somewhere imbetween, basically finishing with a b average because at york college 82 is a b and 94 is an a so a 2.95 is probably over 80%. The two lab science classes dragged me down.
Naturally I was strong in the computer programming classes as an IFS major. I wasn’t as strong in networking, but improved over time. I was basically a B student in all the business classes except for accounting – where I just slid by. IFS is basically a business major with computer classes in programming, networking and database taught from a business perspective when compared to computer science.
Socially I kind of view college like this picture. Everyone kind of came from everywhere in college. The thing is that they then splintered after that.
An interesting little known fact is that a picture was drawn showing Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Lenin playing chess with signatures on it before Hitler was in power.
I’m not surprised that on paper that some of the people who hung with me in college don’t hang with me now when I realize how different our belief systems actually are.
I’m a little death metal and they’re a little country.
