If it’s a program where they can attend for free or at a bid discount (which most of these are), it’s a great way to save on college costs.

Good point, I didn't think of that.

For the most part, though, this girl sounds like a serious case of OCD.

No doubt she wants to "change the world," is politically correctly "progressive" and has her eye on "government service."

Why am I not thrilled at what she might do with her life?

....No doubt she wants to “change the world,” is politically correctly “progressive” and has her eye on “government service.” .....

I didn’t see any references in the full article to any such sentiments on her part.

The article does NOT mention that she wants to “change the world” or go into ANY type of government job, womyns studies, or community organizer type program. My guess, she will go into a hard science/engineering/medicine and her intellect and obvious work ethic will get her (and possibly society) far.
