　　Lessons for Success in College-That ActuallyMake Sense

　　Most students know what it lakes to be successful incollege because some genius cold them already. Buthere's the news flash: The prescription probablywon’t work. Why? Free advice is usually forgettableadvice. And guess what I'm offering'? More advice. But guess what'? It is sensible andforgettable.

　　Lesson l: Be honest about your abilities and goals.

　　If you don’t want to go to college, then don’t go. You will only be frustrated and miserable.Forcing yourself to attend college will kill your motivation, It fakes dedication and persistenceto finish. If you are dying to work as a poodle-groomer after high school, then do that. If youdo go to college, be sure you are prepared. The stunts you pulled in high school might not goover so well with college professors. If you were undisciplined before college, you will likely beundisciplined in college and you will likely not meet your main goal-which is to graduate onLime. Don't make a career out of being a college student. The pay is awful.

　　Lesson 2: Figure out the college zone.

　　There are many different types of colleges and universities from which you can choose. Thebetter your academic record, the more choices you have. Each college or university has aspecific mission or purpose. Knowing what that purpose is isn't vital. But you do need lo visitthe campus and talk to some professors and students in order to determine if that particularinstitution is right for you. The school you choose should fit you.You shouldn't try to fit theschool.

　　Lesson 3: Don't dig a big money pit

　　The cost of higher education continues to go up. n is likely that you will acquire debt in orderto finance your education, Fine. But be wise. (Getting admitted to a college or university doesn'tnecessarily mean you can afford it. The truth is that you can get a good education at a cheapschool. Prestige is beneficial; however, what really matters most is not the school itself but theprofessors who teach there. The job marker for college teachers has been saturated for years.It is not uncommon to find PhD’s from prestigious universities teaching at small state collegesand community colleges. So, it is very possible to get a first rate learning experience for afraction of the cost. Of course, you've probably heard that student loan debt is "good debt."If it is so good, try missing a few loan payments and sec what happens. It won't be all hugsand kisses.

　　Lesson 4: Know that the money is in the major.

　　Yes. You should major in something that you love. Sometimes, doing what you love does notpay the bills. If your first love is money, then preparing to enter a field that will provide you withopportunities Io make money is very pragmatic. The trick is to find balance. Major in somethingthat you love and that brings you the amount of money that will allow you to be comfortable, ifnot rich. By the way. capitalism requires only a few rich people and many not-so-rich people.Which group will you be in?

　　Lessons 5: Get the experience you need to get the job you want.

　　The degree that you earn will not be enough in today's competitive workforce, You will needexperience and you will not gain experience until you get a job. No one will offer you a jobbecause you lack experience. You know the cycle is cruel. However, there is something that youmight not know: While in college, you can offer your labor for Free as an Intern or volunteer.Your pay is the experience you gain and the relationships you establish with people in theworkforce, You become more employable when you know someone who knows someone whoused to work for someone who is now the boss at the place where you applied for a job.

　　Lesson 6: Learn how to fail.

　　The reason most people do not succeed is because they never learn the art of failing. When youaccept the fact that failing is a part of success,then you are, less prone to fear failure. The fearof failure makes you anxious about taking risks. You should not interpret these comments asan excuse to fail courses-although this does happen sometimes. I'm advising you to learn to beresilient in spite of the obstacles you encounter. No guts. no glory.

　　Lesson 7: Develop a critical imagination.

　　You should attend all of your classes-not because all of your professors will be live!y andinspirational teachers. Most of them won't be. You should go to class to learn how to thinkcritically and use your imagination. What do I mean? Learn to investigate, analyze and questionthe ideas that you encounter in the various courses you take. More importantly, learn tochallenge those ideas and try to discover new ways to think about them. How? All you have todo is use your imagination to develop those ideas. If your idea is different, quirky,weird, orwhatever, stick with it and be passionate about it. That idea distinguishes you from the crowd.Don't just think outside the box. Ask why a box is necessary and who does it belong to andwhy can't you have your own.

　　Lesson 8: Don't become an island.

　　The years you spend at a college or university will offer you opportunities to meet a variety ofpeople and develop lasting friendships. Use this time to your advantage. Every day you spendon campus provides you with a chance to network. Keep a list of the people you meet andwhere you met them. Catalog their contact information and keep chis information updated. Iknow you are probably thinking that most alumnae associations take care or this stuff. Don'tcount on it. Do it yourself. Always remember, an old acquaintance is better than noacquaintance at all.

　　Lesson 9: Don't graduate.

　　You will forget most of what you learn in college before you graduate. Knowledge that is notused regularly dies very quickly. Don't think that once you graduate that your education is over.The world of work changes constantly and you will probably find yourself being retrained onthe job or having to go back to college for refresher courses. The workforce will teach youeverything you didn't learn in school and much more. Don't be surprised at how embarrassinglydifferent these two worlds are and how much you have to learn and relearn. Life is aboutlearning, and it will never allow you to graduate. So don’t do it. Don't graduate. You can forgeteverything else, except that.
