So do I. Soon I will qualify for the geezer tuition exemption. Then if I have any steam left I may choose a major and go for some more degrees. I watch my fellow students as much as listen to the lectures anymore. Try to pick out the few who are getting it, usually about 4 in 30. It's great to see a light suddenly go on halfway through a course, because that means there are now 5 getting it. If 1 of the 5 is an American, that would be a plus; usually it is foreign students who are getting it, esp. in advanced courses such as math and tech.

What do you see?

65 - "What do you see?"

I see that 90% of the students in the techonological courses in our local college (Lamar), which few Americans have ever heard of, are foreign students.

I wonder how so many foreigners hear about this school, when so few Americans know about it.
