[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your son needs to get a job. Most people I know had part time jobs in college and still did well. I worked about 15-20 hours per week as an office assistant for a small CPA firm for my entire college career. I still took a full course load each semester, graduated on time and got a great job.

However, the fact that hour husband is so controlling that he won’t allow you to spend $100 at your own discretion is a separate problem. [/quote]

OMFG. People need to understand it’s a different world now. [/quote]

I work at the University of Maryland, and interact with students, admissions staff, advising staff, and senior leadership every day.

Tell me exactly how it is such a "different world" that getting a part-time job isn't feasible or beneficial to students. I'll wait!

Some of the most successful students and young alumni I know worked at the student paper, as interns or graduate assistants in the college/school dean's offices, front desk at the health center, etc. Many students chose Maryland over another school because they knew that hopping on the Metro and being able to intern or get a job in D.C. was invaluable.
