I had my full tuition covered but I still had to pay like $1200 per semester in "Student Fees" and then like 10k for "Room and Board" per year.

I wish I had some foresight re: living on campus. i didn't think about living off campus because i didnt have a car, but with that 10k per year I could have gotten my own 1br apartment off campus and a decent car. oooops.

College was fun excuse to live extravagantly on borrowed money, though. Kind of funny how parents encourage their kids to do it. By extravagantly I just mean drinking, smoking, and having anonymous casual sex.

The president of my university was pulling in 300k and I don't think I ever remember him doing anything except giving a speech at graduation where his main idea was "The job market sucks right now, so even though most of you will remain underemployed you can atleast be proud of the fact that you earned a degree."

We didn't have any frats, and we were also ranked like the 2nd safest campus in the USA. Talking like 4,000 students.

He had also been a finance lawyer that was disbarred, but had the connections to get a sinecure position with the state university system.

My college experience was decent though. I wish more money went to faculty and less to administrators because many of my professors were brilliant and very committed.
