Teens Don't Apologize for Being Smart 12/29/2009
![]() There's a story going around that a college in America, is asking smart college graduates to sign a paper stating that they only did fair in school. Why would a college ask students to do this? What's the big deal about being smart? Someone who feels inferior because your intellect may be way above average or genius has issues that must be resolved. It's not your problem! The audacity of the "powers at be" of a college to ask students to "dumb themselves down" is beyond my comprehension. Is this the future for teens? It's almost as if America is punishing teens for being smart. What has happened to this country? Where did we go wrong? How do we fix America and get it back on track? You may not know the answers to these questions, and I may not know the answers to these questions, but the people of this country better wake up today before it's too late. Teens, you are the future. Do you want a future that includes college administrators that will dumb you down? Everyone is smart in their own way. You can be book smart, street smart, artistic smart, and people smart. If you're book smart, don't apologize for it. College and university may not be for everyone. However, that doesn't give you a free pass to slack off if you're not doing well in high school. Do the best you can because that is what matters. Take pride in you and your work today and your future will be bright tomorrow! Comments Your comment will be posted after it is approved. Leave a Reply | Teen BlogWelcome to the Teen Blog!
