Advice?Originally Posted by Ken96z
(1) Leave Rockford. Between 1979 and 1995, I lived in Rockford (across from Guilford HS) and Belvidere (lived near Riverside and Olson). That's 18 years of my life WASTED in that dipshit town. (It's a decent enough place to raise a family, I guess ...but if you're the one being raised there, it blows chunks.)
(2) If you're transferring to NIU and currently living in Rockford, you're either attending RVC or Rockford College. Stop that immediately. RVC will ultimately lead to your downfall. I graduated from Belvidere HS ...I know the damage that Rock Valley can do.
(3) If you're reading this and you still live in Rockford, then go back and re-read number 1. Leave Rockford immediately. I don't care if you really like CherryVale Mall ...it pretty much sucks. I couldn't give two shits about the lame ass go-kart track, the mini putt (they closed Arnold Palmer!) or Magic Waters. Just leave. Try not to look back. If the town council sees that you have successfully escaped their trap, you will likely be shot on sight.
(4) Go to NIU. Though people may make fun of it (state school, Corn Palace, po-dunk), it's actually a decently well-respected university.
(5) You cannot major in web design. NIU does not offer a major in web design. If you want Comp Sci, start memorizing math formulas. And learn Game Theory. It'll help. If you choose Comp Sci - Applied Computer Science, you'll have to suffer through Accounting, Marketing, Management and Finance. Try not to ask actual Business majors for help because they confound you. Also, they probbaly do not know what they are doing.
(6) Might I recommend a major in OMIS? Operations Management Information Systems is a good area of study.
If you have any other questions ...ask.

Awsome dood thanks for the advice.. Yes anyone who lives in rockford knows it sucks if you dont think it sucks , u belong here. My sister has already graduated from NIU and has her Bac in Psyc and is almost done with her Master in Psyc so shes been pretty helpful in this also. I know totally what ur talking about RVC thats where im currecntly enrolled ... It is leading to my demise! Im losing my motovation real quick and Ive only been there a semester and a half. I graduated from Boylan last year and I did fairly well their so I know im college bound.I just dont know about RVC . O I figured the web design was a no go but that OMIS sounds interesting. Any more info on that ?Originally Posted by traubenberg
Thanks Again

Toooooo many stories... Anything from flooding the floor(I wasnt directly responsible), to jammin Hendrix thru over 500 watts 'o power LIVE(guitar, a few amps) in the elevators at night. Its nice to have power outlets in the 'vaters. (Very responsible) ..
