1 Eugene has small regional airport. It always surprises me how 'not cheap' it is to fly into regional airports on commercial carriers. Depending on what you want to do, can be cheaper to fly to PDX and drive down.
Not everyone is outstanding
this is my favorite part of telling people I went to school in San Francisco....their response is usually, "I went to Cal, where did you go"
No. It's for dummies like me.
lol My GF told me that if she knew the reputation of my school (uninspiring Canadian university) she probably would have said no to the first date.
My kid goes there and she loves it. Going thru ceremonies next month then it's on to grad school. She did the 2 years at CC thing, I figure she saved me $55K.
yeah, that sh!t grates me, but I laugh because the ratio of cost school to current income for me is very favorable; it's typically only the pre-med kids that wound up outearninglol My GF told me that if she knew the reputation of my school (uninspiring Canadian university) she probably would have said no to the first date.

Even medium achievers. My son decided to go the CC route early in HS and ended up having a great HS experience. He didn't fret over the SAT or ACT. Only took AP history because he likes history. Almost didn't get to walk because he had a lot of truancies for surfing his senior year (total laziness as he was 18 for several of them and could have signed himself out....). I think his senior year consisted of guitar, auto shop, auto shop TA, wood shop, wood shop TA and AP history TA and a few other basket weavers.
