So... is this really the place I want to finish off my BA? Sure it's convenient, literally right around the corner... but this just makes me laugh with disdain...

Having done the SUNY (State University of New York) system before - long lines, red tape and dissatisfaction with financial aid are things I'm well familiar with. However, I gotta admit none of the above are things that appeal to me in the least. Finishing school, as quick as possible is quite appealing. But then again, so is a magic wand.

Posted by: delara at August 18, 2004 10:13 PMmeh. other options are neither economical or logical. The vast majority of my credits are from SUNY already (New Paltz, but still) and it's quick and cheap.
I have friends that work in various means there as well.. soo... yeah, meh.
