So, Raz is thinking about going back to School

[derspiess]

Just don't shoot it up.

Universities do trigger warnings or whatever these days to prevent people from getting angry or offended.  Situation: fixed.

I do warn you guys, if I start  going to school you'll won't be able to partake in my wisdom as much on this board.  Just so you know.

That's a chance we're just going to have to take, Raz.

Doctor said I should take a full schedule which I don't think is wise.  I think I'll take Yi's advice and take one class either English or History.  History would be easier, English would teach me more.  I can take a class as a "visiting student", but it won't count for anything.

Why dont you talk to you doctor about your concerns and see what the doctor says.

I did.  She simply said she didn't want me graduating at age 80.  The social worker (who sees me once a week), agreed with me.  Besides I don't have that much cash on hand.  I have a little over a grand.

Good luck to you then 

But on the theme of not graduating when you are 80 why not start taking a course for credit now?  Also, make sure you recieve whatever accomodations you need.  One more thing to talk to your doctor/social worker about.

If you only have a grand, then it seems like the better option to me would be to try to get a job.  You can then have more money and possibly afford to pay for an education.  Also, don't let anyone trick you into taking out a ton of loans, especially not to some fake for-profit 'university'.  You'll never get a job with a degree from one of those places.

This is a fairly well respected institution.  My dad got a degree there.
