The Freshman Phenomenon

In the wake of that last, rather depressing, entry, I add this. If you've ever thought that college wasn't haven't the eye-opening effect on your life that you'd hope it would--as if anybody really wants their eyes opened--rest assured that you're not alone.
This article suggests that most students don't undergo much awakening in their first year of college. It also indicates that at least one professor has pretty much given up on trying to make that awakening take place. That's the spirit, Prof!
