Choosing a College

Froda asked:


…choosing a subject you’re really interested in but that may not promise a good career? Or choosing a subject that you may be less interested in, but one that will guarantee a good job?

All through much of my college, I missed all of the fun in college life because I had to take care of my uncle dying from cancer(who was my step father). Now he is dead and I have finished college and entered corporate life. I from India. I know workplaces in USA are strictly used for work. However in India some workplaces have a college kind of environment, with clubs, TGIF parties, dance competitions and the like. Now when I have to choose jobs, I’m inclined to choose the workplaces offering this college kind of envionment because of what I have missed during my college life. Because of what I have missed I have few friends and lack the ability to make friends with strangers. I feel only by putting myself into college kind of workplace I can correct the faults in my personality. I have chosen to decline the job offer from an excellent job because it doesn’t have this environment. I’m not able to go against my heart. Is this attitude of mine correct?

I am sorry, but I am a very hard worker in society, I work 2 jobs that I do my very best in and I still go home every night and do things that are expected of me! College is not for everyone! I dont get why everyone thinks that the only successful people are the ones that go to college! I did horrible in High School so what is the point in spending 1000’s of dollars to go to college when I know that I possibly won’t succeed and will probably wind up dropping out!? I think that the way American society is built today is messed up! People have different choices, different lives, and I see no reason to criticize people for their decisions on how they plan their future! I guarantee that one of my jobs I have right now pays better and I have better benefits than some people that spent 10 years in college so please explain to me why it is considered “lazy” or that one has no interest in their future if they choose not to go to college!?

Well, i’m going to a CC and i haven’t chose my classes yet.
I was wondering should i just do all of my general education and transfer, or should i fit in some business classes too? i want to get a Bachelor’s degree in the future for Business because i’d like to open up a coffee house.

and i was also wondering if Nutrition fits under General Education or Humanity at all?

thanks.
