I said: “I worked hard obtaining my engineering degree from one of the nation’s top universities. Lots of partying too. Could have gotten the degree in half the time at a fraction of the cost without the added benefits of the fun country club. Wouldn’t have preferred it, but others might.”

You said: “I believe you stated specifically that you wished you could have gotten out of school in a shorter time but wasted the time partying and were blaming the school for the number of years you took to graduate. I will go back and get your statement if you insist.”

So, I never said I “wished” for anything like a shorter education (in fact, I said I “wouldn’t have preferred” a briefer college experience.)

I never said that I “wasted time partying.”

I never was “blaming” anyone, including the school,although obviously their policy foreclosed the options I think should be available to others.

So, you entirely mis-characterized my points. You owe me an apology. I would equally accept your simply buzzing off.

Perhaps I was influenced by your previous post:

However, other are far faster, cheaper and more effective ways to achieve the same ends...You don’t need to send kids to a party country club to have them learn the essentials to be a productive adult.

You are obviously saying that the "party country club" is to blame for wasting the students time and then you say that (for your case) it was your partying that was the reason for the time it took you to graduate. Can't have it both ways.
