The math-science death march. Now that is a perfect name for it. It's exactly what I lived through and why I changed my major halfway through college from chemical biology to art and technology. Why, you might ask?
- being pushed through a system that treats you like a number (In two years, I never met my advisor or received any guidance from faculty)
- having your entire college career already planned out with no wiggle room or a chance to explore other interests (until the very last semester where there was one free elective)
- professors who spoke English poorly
- classes that were taught straight from books with no added knowledge or insight
And the list goes on and on. For all those who managed to make it through, more power to you. But it wasn't until I switched majors that I started enjoying the academic aspect of college.
