Start a new Degree program “GovTeat”.
:)
Unfortunately there is a big demand for those majors in government.
My kids are in two of these! My son is in Aerospace Engineering and my daughter is in Biomedical Engineering. Both go to Purdue.
When my daughter got cold feet her first year, she called me to change majors. I told her okay, but she’d have to pick a less expensive school. But she had grown so affectionate for Purdue, she decided to stay in her major. Now in her Junior year, she’s glad she made the choice.
I joke that these two are my retirement plan! Don’t anyone tell you that the environment you’re raised in doesn’t matter. Education and thirst for learning doesn’t happen in a vacuum.
I am a graduate of State University of New York College of Environmental Science & Forestry
SUNY ESF for short.
UNH is The University of New Hampshire.
Resident instate tuition is $26K , including room & board.
Did she go to the U Colo. school of mines?
That is a very well regarded school. congrats!
I’m going to print this out for my 17 yr old son. He informed me that he is no longer willing to do his daily chores on our small horse farm so I informed him that he needed to get his ass out of bed this morning and find a job if:
A) he expected to eat,
B) he expected to utilize the electricity I pay for the house and especially the TV,
C) walking around money,
D) buy his school supplies and clothes.
He just stood there with his mouth open and stared.
So I go up and did his chores for him and let his candy ass sleep in until 6:30. Then drug him out of bed and had him hit the bricks at 7:45. I even had to tell him that most places were open at either 8 or 9 in the morning.
Actually what we are trying to convince him is to stay home and take all his basic requirement math, science, English courses at UNH Manchester, NH. Then transfer into Worchester Polytechnic or MIT in his junior year.
He is smart enough to get into WPI without a problem. Not sure if he can get into MIT. The one thing about living in NH, there are many world renowned universities within a 2 hour drive.
However, SUNY tuition is still a great deal, all things considered. I think it is still in the $13K range. It is almost worth moving to states like California or New York just to take advantage or their inexpensive college systems.
I don’t think so.
Very proud of her and her older sister, heck all three granddaughters. The oldest sister has a masters in mechanical engineering and works for a petroleum co.
Their youngest sister will be a senior at Baylor this Fall. Not sure of her major. I’m thinking public relations.
Let me show you some pictures.....(g)
