      Perhaps those who attend a more rigorous univerity than Platteville or UWM might find school and their coursework a bit more challenging.

      Or would your supposition be that all comp sci is the same, regardless of university. If so, you are even more stupid than i thought.
      I was assuming we were talking about the majority of students who weren't Engineering students at MIT. Yes in a rigorous program at a big competitive school there are more important things to do than work. I think my program at a small school is too much for 25 hours. A real dynamo might choose to do it though.

        Dude no way. 16 hours of that could be done during the weekend. One 4 and one 5 hour day during the week would be a peace of cake.

          Partial thinks he has the wisdom of a thousand sages.

          People tell Partial he doesn't.

            False. I think people should strive for excellence and give life every ounce of effort they have and work hard. It seems everyone else wants to settle for average. All of my ideas have a common theme of hard work and improving your life both financially and educationally. They're progressive and would require the average idiot to CHANGE into something greater.

                Oh don't get me wrong I agree with you that college kids too often don't put themselves in good financial situations. But I'm in a tough major, I don't like having to deal with getting off of work when I have a big week at school. I pay for my own tuition, have zero debt, and I don't need to work part time during the semester to do that. My time is better spent elsewhere than at a low paying job in Platteville.

                Your standard marketing major at whitewater has a lot more time on their hands than me.

                • Joel I've seen how much time you have on school. Yeah, it sucks during busy weeks, but most of the time its very doable. I have no idea how you don't have any debt (actually I do), but thats something very, very rare.

                  You're right about Platte though. That's why I spent a semester driving to Dubuque. That was really shitty for the 10 bucks an hour when paying for all the gas.

                        I stockpiled in high school and I have a lot of scholarships. I didn't own a car until December and I worked full time at good wages every summer. Plus I went to Platteville where the tuition and cost of living is cheap.

                          Why the hell would you bitch about 61 hours? I am sure you work WAY more than that if you're as high in some company as you imply.

                          However, one can't deny that thats a lot of credits and if they're only going to go to college for 3 years, than they'll be making the big bucks earlier and with less loans will be in much better shape financially.
                          Most people don't work 60 hours at their job. Get serious.

                          You show a shocking lack of understanding of the real world. hours have steadily decreased since the 1900s.



                          GAME, SET, MATCH...time for you to go home. Perhaps the satellite tour.

                          BTW, who said anything about my position at my company? Big assumptions from you. I've always been a work smart, not hard guy.

                            You have hit upon something that Partial just ignores...more important things to do than work.

                            Must people need a break, to recharge their batteries. Thus they need some free time. That isn't a bad thing.

                            Also, going to college is more than just academic. It is learning to live on your own (something partial can't handle), meeting new people and learning to get along, attending sporting events, having relationships, etc.

                            The point is that most people don't work more than 40-50 hours per week. Partial would have students working/class/studying 61.

                            • That's why you're a loser Ty. I work 35 hours a week while going to school full-time M-F and chill and relax all weekend.

                              As for me not being capable of living on my own, the guy you're quoting was essentially a suitemate of mine for a year with some other guys.

                                60 hours is NOTHING in high paying jobs. All the managers and leads at my company easily put that in. The rest are hourly employees so they do not.

                                Just recently you defined success as a Lawyer, Director of a company, Doctor, etc. You think those people don't put 60 hours in a week. LMAO. You're clearly not very high at a company if you work 40 and call it a week
