<p>Start preparing your livers now.
Go Greek. If you're a guy, take the hazing. It'll be over in 10-16 weeks.
Get a fake ID and enjoy Midtown from the start.
Don't bother with pre-med or engineering your first year. Go business or telecom.
Learn early that C's get degrees. Connections get jobs.
Go out on nights you shouldn't.
Nobody gives a damn about what your GPA is or what club your in.
Skip class to go to happy hour.
Have as much sex as possible.
Gamedays in the Swamp are the best days of the year. So blackout and not remember them.
Make the best friends of your life.
Take advantage of college. It's the best damn years of your life.
Good luck y'all. Go Gata.</p>
<p>Haha omg I love your bluntness.</p>
<p>Definitely disagree with most of this…</p>
<p>Look, a comedian!</p>
<p>“Go Greek. If you’re a guy, take the hazing. It’ll be over in 10-16 weeks.”
- then you can drink and act like a tool for the next 4 years. smart.</p>
<p>“Learn early that C’s get degrees. Connections get jobs.”
- no need to respond to this…</p>
<p>“Skip class to go to happy hour.”
- so waste your 20k? that’s smart. you’ll go far, kid.</p>
<p>“Take advantage of college. It’s the best damn years of your life.”
- shouldn’t be.</p>
<p>this is probably the stupidest thread I have ever seen on CC. Congrats bro.</p>
<p>Am I the only one that doesn’t hate this post!? </p>
<p>Y’all need to lighten up! </p>
<p>
Actually, you’d only be wasting at most $15 dollars IS and $45 OS. 
The individual can determine if its worth it or not.</p>
<p>
<br>
<p>
Wait, who’s the tool? lol</p>
<p>Skipping class to go to happy hour wouldn’t cost $20,000. Skipping every class you ever enrolled in for the entire year…would cost $20,000…and get you kicked out :D</p>
<p>@2013 Yes, I’m going to USF, but it’s not just about the money. I have certains goals an experiences that I want out of college an USF is the only school where I can get all of those. But getting about $10,000 back the first year is a big plus. 
Really excited for this fall!</p>
<p>jcold9 - Don’t post while drunk. </p>
<p>And LOL at 4 years in Gainesville being the best 4 of your life. Have you ever been out of the state of Florida?</p>
<p>lol, you know i guess I was a little harsh 
guess I slept on the wrong side of the bed. I was joking about the greek thing though, i know there’s more to it, that’s just a bonus 
i was actually planning on possibly even rushing. </p>
<p>i still think his advice is a little wrong though 
not everyone wants to rush or go to football games</p>
<p>Ok, what jcold9 said is, for the most part ridiculous. I’m going to respond to each statement individually.</p>
<p>“Go Greek. If you’re a guy, take the hazing. It’ll be over in 10-16 weeks.”
-If you want to rush, do it, but inform yourselves WELL about the frats/sororities you’re interested in, so you know what you’re getting into. If you think you can handle the hazing, go for it. In some of them, it’s not that bad/non-existant. If you don’t wanna rush, fine. It’s not something that everyone is suited for and it’s not a huge deal if you’re not in one. As with any organization, there are advantages & disadvantages of being a member. It’s up to you to weigh them.</p>
<p>“Get a fake ID and enjoy Midtown from the start.”
-Yes, do enjoy midtown. I personally wouldn’t encourage a fake ID, but since many people will get one anyway, try your best not to get caught.</p>
<p>“Don’t bother with pre-med or engineering your first year. Go business or telecom.”
-Do pre-med or engineering if you believe that one of these is a field that you are interested in or passionate about. You most certainly won’t succeed in these fields taking the easy way out (at least not all the time).</p>
<p>“Learn early that C’s get degrees. Connections get jobs.”
-C’s do get degrees, but for those of you who want to go to grad school, aim as high as possible for your grades; the adcoms will defenitely frown upon applicants with C averages. Being well-connected will get you jobs, though.</p>
<p>“Go out on nights you shouldn’t.”
-NO! Be responsible, find the right balance between the social and academic aspects of your life. If you strongly feel that you’re underprepared for an exam tomorrow, but only have tonight to study, BUCKLE DOWN AND DO IT!</p>
<p>“Nobody gives a damn about what your GPA is or what club your in.”
-Your classmates & friends may not care, but the university and grad school adcoms will. For grad school, your grades & ECs are VERY important. Also, if you’re GPA drops too low, you will fail out of college, and have wasted a lot of time & money striving for degree you never earned.</p>
<p>“Skip class to go to happy hour.”
-I would never encourage this, but if you do, make sure it’s during a period during which nothing important happens (exams, quizzes, review sessions, etc.)</p>
<p>“Have as much sex as possible.”
-Be smart and be safe. </p>
<p>“Gamedays in the Swamp are the best days of the year. So blackout and not remember them.”
-Drinking is one thing, but DON’T blackout. These are times you will want to remember if you’re a very social person or a huge football fan. If you’re not interested in football games, that’s fine, but my point is: you want to remember all of the good times, so try to stay at least a little sober for all/most of em.</p>
<p>“Make the best friends of your life.”
-I couldn’t agree more.</p>
<p>“Take advantage of college. It’s the best damn years of your life.”
-Overall, I agree, but balance and responsibility are key in both academic success & personal enjoyment. Don’t waste too much time, and don’t make stupid decisions. What you do with your time here will significantly impact the course of your life (especially for those you not pursuing any postgrad education).</p>
<p>I’m assuming this is a joke thread, nothing to really take seriously guys</p>
<p>People get butthurt really easily</p>
<p>I couldn’t tell, but I’m sure some moron will take it seriously and actually follow jcold9’s advice.</p>
<p>Well, good looking out rs0525. Last thing we needed was a moron to follow this advice! :rolleyes:</p>
<p>This advice isn’t even bad! Let loose and do things you probably shouldn’t do!</p>
