One of the common lectures is about school and our future. The pressure to get into a good college starts way before you go to high school. In fact, college pressure starts the moment you get into junior high. All of a sudden you have to worry about taking advanced classes so you can take advanced classes in high school. Students seem to have a silent competition for grades.
College causes our youth to have many social restrictions.
I personally think that we are young and should enjoy it while we can, but homework prevents us from getting the most out of our time at home. Instead of going out, some weekends are spent at home, working on some pointless report. Because we are too worried about our grade point average dropping. Some students even freak out if they get a GPA below 4.0. Fear is the ruler of our minds when it comes to schoolwork.
