[_] What do? Anonymous 01/28/18(Sun)20:08:02 No.3311631
I'm going back to college after having been out for seven years. Classes start tomorrow and I'm
extremely nervous. What should I expect?

Zoology. Hopefully, it won't be too hard. My main worries math (because I'm awful at it) and
mingling with people who are basically fresh out of high school.

Cool! Good luck, Anon. Don't psyche yourself out, man. Just go in with a healthy dose of
optimism, a strong desire to learn and better yourself, and maintain a good attitude and you'll
do well.

I had more of a trade-like job for the last few years too (electrician and later manufacturing).
I'll be sure to make another thread once I get a feel for how hard this major is.

Just mentor/tutor your younger peers and you'll be fine. They're bound to want/need advice from
someone who's lived some real life the past few years.

the trick is that you don't actually have to do this.
Not to any meaningful degree, anyway.
Younger kids, they're mostly going to be dicks to you.
You should just accept that as fact.
What I've found from the older generations going back to college, is that they often have familys
and jobs to be getting back to, and don't have the free time to dick around on campus that the
average college student has in excess.
Kids fresh out of high school are more or less still in their diapers. College is a glorified
daycare for them. Only after their junior years do most of them get their shit together and
realize how real everything is.
This also means that older students are less likely to fuck around in general, and more likely to
be a reliable partner in any group situations.

remember, a social life is optional
