| I think that is the problem with my generation and generations younger than me. They don't know how to meet new people. |

| Eh. I never made connections in school. Everyone was interested in getting to their own class or quickly formed cliques |
| Hummingbird Meadows |
| @Red, I have experienced that too. But, overall people didn't talk to each other at in-person classes either. I would always try to talk the students I sat next to and would be given the weirdest looks for trying to socialize. XD |
| Red Horizon Ranch |
| I also enjoy online classes for the flexibility, but I miss the networking aspect. You really have to go out of your way to make connections in my experience and its...very hard |

| @Ven, I mean COVID taught me that I thrive in online learning. I prefer teaching myself in my own time. I live at home too because housing is too expensive and I struggle with roommates because of my autism. |
| Stormsong Manor |
| There are multiple factors at play. COVID boosted the online learning environment, the economy is shit so kids are living at home with their parents longer, etc |
| Stormsong Manor |
| The social skills are almost nonexistent and mom/dad do everything for everyone. I'm not blaming the students but that's how it is |
| Stormsong Manor |
| The students here are not what I remember when I was in college doing my bachelor's about fifteen years ago. We had online classes but COVID really made them explode. I lived on campus and was super independent. This is a commuter school with no on-campus housing and I swear to god these young adults are babies |

| @Red, radiology tech (taking x-rays). I love what I am learning and enjoy practicing at clinicals, but my experience with the school has been horrible. I can't transfer. There are only 2 other schools in the state that have this program. One is far away and the other is just as crappy. |
| Red Horizon Ranch |
| Truly terrible...what are you studying? Can you transfer? You absolutely deserve the bare minimum out of your teachers |
| Hummingbird Meadows |
| @Red, it is. My professors won't even answer their emails so I have no way to contact them. The classes are mostly online so you are just kind of stuck. |
| Stormsong Manor |
| I'm taking advantage of working for a university by going back to school for my MBA |
| Red Horizon Ranch |
| I have some interest in teaching...I wouldn't want to full time. Potentially just an additional thing to do along with a clinical career |
| Hummingbird Meadows |
| @Ven, sounds like you are at a good school! I have no respect for my instructors and wish I could be paid to have their job since none of their work is original. They steal it off the internet. |
