One organization was having a blood drive. There was a Habitat for Humanity meeting coming up. There was another announcement, but not for any sort of school activity. I suppose watching sitcoms is an extracurricular event. However, it doesn t invoke school spirit, promote co-curricular involvement or teach leadership skills.
Television sitcoms are usually just an effective time-waster, a way to procrastinate.
Some people choose to take part in co-curricular activities to maximize their experience here. And there s nothing wrong with that. Instead, you re watching all the time, endlessly flipping until something interests you. It no longer matters what s on, as long as something s on. But people who come home, throw their backpack on the bed and turn on the idiot box for a night of channel surfing need to re-evaluate why they re in college.
