I just finished reading the French version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Gilderoy Lockhart inspired me to write this.

1. You can be qualified to commit medical malpractice and sue yourself.
2. By getting all of your degrees at the same time, you won’t have to worry about buying a frame that doesn’t match down the road.

This is an article for those unfamiliar with what different degrees mean. They are placed in order of attainment.

Associate of Arts (AA)/Associate of Science (AS)
Time required: 2 Years
Credits required: 60 credit hours

Bachelor of Arts (BA)/Bachelor of Science (BS)
Time required: 4 Years
Credits required: 120-128 depending on the major

This degree is still the standard. Remember your parents telling you “go to college so you can get a degree and a good job” when you were younger? This is the degree they meant.

Colleges seem to be stuck in the Cold War, at least when it comes to transfer credit. “How the hell do the Tar Heels have this piece of intelligence? Not possible! They cannot be better than us…raise the requirements!” It’s so stupid.

Because of this cave-troll logic, a transfer’s outcome is sometimes a tremendous setback. Many students have some or all of their hard-earned credits changed from academic treasure to arcade tokens, or electives. Normally, electives are the courses you take to still be considered a full-time student, waste time, or explore new interests. You have a great time spending an …

Maybe you are interested in many subjects. Maybe you are a glutton for punishment. Maybe both? Well, you better be. Students with the academic drive and talent necessary to pursue more than one major are not common.
