C's Get Degrees

One night one of my partners friends came for a visit, and before this time I had only had a brief conversation with Jill so I knew not really of how she was. Jill is a character and is definitely worthy of a blog post. All three of us are sitting on the couch chatting, and talking about college. (You know, whats your major, how long have you been going, is it hard, do you like your teachers...etc.) As the conversation keeps going Jill looks at me and my partner and tells us someone told me the greatest thing, and I remind myself of this, "C's get degrees, this guy says to me one day, and I say awesome so what do D's get? Nothing, then I will just try harder next time." This is the perfect way to explain college, class is not always fun or easy, but simple fact remains, C's get degrees, and a C is not a fail its an attempt at a hard class or one that is not easy to explain to your friends. Usually if you have a hard time explaining something it is a hard task in general. Just know D's don't make degrees, and C's could be B's with effort and sometimes sleepless nights, cranky coffee mornings, possible tutoring sessions, and hard exams. Now, reading it like that just do your best and try to get that degree for your dream job, but don't forget C's get degrees.
