Pastoral Resources

I didn't finish college, which is really weird because they awarded me the Alumni of Distinction recently.

At one point in college I was so shy that I'd drop out of a class if asked to speak in front of other people.

Coming out of college with a degree in fine arts and painting isn't worth much any more.

I never took my SAT's. I never applied to college. I moved right out here and jumped into the thick of things. Whether that was the smart move or not, I'm sitting here talking to you now, so it paid off.

For me, college wasn't a breeze. I had 8 o'clock classes, I worked from 3 to 11 at the Settlement House. On weekends, if Northwestern Bell needed me, I'd troubleshoot for them, and I had a steady girl. God!

I knew in my gut that there was something wrong with a system that couldn't fire its incompetents, and I had my share of incompetent college teachers.

At times during high school and college I wished to be a sportswriter.

College campuses were once a hotbed of political activity.

I worked as a lawyer; as a member of the teaching staff of a technical college; and then I worked principally as legal adviser to Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist German Workers Party.

It was 1967, and the hippie thing was happening. I got into experimenting with drugs while I was in college in Michigan.

I have a daughter who is a sophomore in college and another who is in the 11th grade of high school.

College is a refuge from hasty judgment.

The preparation I had in college was the most valuable.

Americans are the only people in the world known to me whose status anxiety prompts them to advertise their college and university affiliations in the rear window of their automobiles.

Instead, California is one of only 10 states that provides in-state college and university tuition to illegal immigrants. That's grossly unfair to a legal high school student who moves out of California for a year, then returns to attend college.

Hospitals are closing across the country due to the burden of illegal immigration, college students find that summer jobs have dried up due to illegal immigration, and wages across the board are depressed by the overwhelming influx of cheap and illegal labor.

It's clear enough that there was substantial fraud in Ohio, thus delivering the Electoral College vote for President Bush.

If you don't give your kid freedom to make choices with money, including stupid choices, he'll make plenty when he gets to college.

The ideal college is Mark Hopkins on one end of a log and a student on the other.

I was a student at Columbia College, actually, in the Architecture school. Paul would drive in from Queens, showing me these new songs. I can't remember us working it out.
