Why College is so Good.

I complain a lot about college and all the money it costs and whatever, but seriously, in the long run, it rocks. A couple of weeks ago I had an Accounting professor talk to us about how much we should study per credit hour. Now, my major is accounting and it really clicks with me, so I might put in about one to two extra hours a week in studying for that class. I have a 99.9%. He stated that we should be studying at least nine extra hours for his class. I'm sorry, there is no way I could study that much for that class even if I wanted to. As he stated it, my tuition was a sunk cost because I wasn't getting out what I was paying for it. In my opinion, I pay to learn the material, and when I know it so well, I'm not going to study it again. Learning it more in depth is an option, but then I'll just do that in the next class. I don't know your opinion on this, but do feel free to express it. I would love to learn more about what other students think about this. Thanks everyone!
