Going away to college can be a real eye-opener, depending on how you were raised. If you didn’t have much responsibility growing up, getting to class on time and doing all your work might seem next to impossible.
And that’s what these tweets are all about: learning things almost IMMEDIATELY in college that you don’t learn in high school.
Do any of these look familiar to you?

Welcome to college. Where every single person is smarter than you except for the 3 people in your group project.

Yesterday a girl walked into class with an iced coffee and my prof told her she couldn’t have it so she just walked out and never came back and I can’t stop thinking about it

8. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

11. That’s not helping.
Multiple choice in high school:
a) not the answer
b) DEFINITELY THE ANSWER
c) not the answerIn college:
a) could be the answer
b) oh this one could be too
c) doubtful, but what if I’m wrong and it is the answer?
d) vague option that could also be right— Catie (@ckauffman20) December 10, 2018
12. The crying alarm.
i just saw a guy in the library cry for five or so minutes and then his phone alarm went off and he just? stopped crying? and went right on back to work

14. Way to go!
My first college test I got a 68 and actually cried in the classroom.
Today I got a 52 on an exam and I took myself out for chicken tenders

15. Just keep it professional, okay?
half of college professors are like “you can know nothing about me except my name” and the other half are like “and that’s why my wife left me! anyway what’s up with y’all”
