This year at RWC more students than ever are prowling around, but the total amount is unknown to me. That isn’t the point of this piece. The point concerns the unknown amount of students being arrested by authorities for violation of the code of conduct. Apparently more students have been taken into custody so far this year than during any other period within memory, and most of these students are in their early to mid 20s.
There is only one case that I know the details of involving contact between a student and teacher, but the others are a mystery.
From what I could muster up, a lot of these violations are between students and faculty, and the only statement I can form from my smoke-filled lungs to direct to these hooligans would be to grow the hell up.
Oh wait. That’s right, you are grown adults, so that means you can do whatever you want, right? This makes perfect sense. I think I can see where these mature students are coming from: I have sudden urges to yell at teachers now because it makes me feel so significant.
Well, for those to whom this article applies, read this slowly (if you can read this at all) and pay attention. Oh yeah, that’s right. You are paying to pay attention, and the faculty here are getting paid to help you out in the long run.
So I’m going to pop those little bubbles of yours and send you careening down from your little worlds to join in with the adults who are talking, since mommy wouldn’t allow you to do that at home.
You are here to learn, and make something of yourself. The faculty is here to teach you, whether you like their style or not. Don’t throw a temper tantrum and just chill out, man.
