High School Life

I spoke today to two classes of high school juniors.  The topic was the college financial aid process.  I am reminded once again how un-hip I can be.  I want to be clear.  The students are fine.  The teacher was great.  I, however, do not translate well to the 14 to 17 year old cohort.

To find the school I had to use Google Maps.  This is a school in the same community as the college which employs me.  I should be embarrassed.  At least this time I asked in advance for the school's street address.  The last school I visited I assumed there was only one high school in Garland, and that its name would be Garland High School.  I was wrong.  So wrong.


On the way back to campus I stopped at Whataburger and picked up a large diet Dr. Pepper and an apple pie.  I don't usually leave campus during the day.  In fact, I don't usually leave campus when the sun is up.  It was nice.  I should do that more often.
