What wisdom can our elders pass on to us through the internet? What type of Medusa professors can we avoid by forenotice? What tricks can we learn from the experienced about slipping into class after "a long night"? Not having been there yet, we must rely on the few books available, the "old college-days" stories of our parents, and, most invaluable, the true, word for word interviews from 9 College students and 4 college bound students. You won't find this kind of information on college websites, or in pamphlets, brochures, or guides, none of that glossed over crap; this is the real deal, candid stories done right.

Nice. It's nice to know what current college students think. Their opinions are more valuable than any other source, seeing as every college or university will only say good things about their institution.
