Nobody Goes Back To School? Of Course They Do!

| | Comments (0)
"Graduate school is so different from college, you're not going back to anything; you're walking into an entirely new situation, with a wholly different set of demands, expectations, and challenges" (Lemire 43).

When I first read read the title of the chapter, "Higher Ed: Nobody Goes Back To School," I was confused and irritated.  I have been considering going for my Masters and I kept thinking of adults who have all gone back to school.  Of course people go back to school.  However, I read this quote.  The chapter title does not mean that nobody goes back to school, but no one goes back to school in the way they expect.  It is different.  It is strange to think that Graduate school would be different from college.  I always figured they went hand in hand.  It is nice to learn that there is a different structure to it, for future reference in case I decide to pursue my Masters.
