When I was in high school, my parents always told me that the only way I was ever going to do anything in life is if I went to college. NOT going wasn’t even discussed. You had to go to college if you wanted a job. If you wanted to work at McDonald’s or Wal-Mart forever, then fine, you could skip out on college - but everyone knows (at least according to my parents back then) that working at Wal-Mart wasn’t really a job as much as it was a sentence to the worst life ever.
Well, I went to college, and I even did my parents one better and went to graduate school. Armed with both a BA and MFA, I was certain I could pretty much get any job I applied for, and would get paid 35K at the minimum.
Ha. Ha. Ha. And I’m not alone. Not only have most of my friends with MFAs scrambled to find anything to pay the bills post graduation (working at Borders, in a file room…with freaking MFAs!!), but it seems like degrees in general are losing the battle to inflation. Read More »

Being a college student, good grades and the hopes of graduating just aren’t cutting it when it comes to my personal motivation to get out of bed in the morning. What is my motivation, you ask? The chance of seeing a quality side-boob picture online!
The classic side-boob is not quite porn but it’s just naughty enough to put a smile on the face of any boob enthusiast browsing both Internets. Without further ado, let’s salute the 20 girls who have rocked the side-boob best.
Who is #1? Find out after the jump! Read More »

I’m broke and lazy - are you broke and lazy? Of course you are. You’re a college student (or a big fan of college-related material if you’ve found yourself reading this).
To many, “college student” is synonymous with “too busy and too broke.” Even if you’re a part-time student/full-time worker it’s assumed that you’re a slacker. So instead of slacking off on ultra-cool college websites (…) how about you get off your ass and start preparing for your trip home?
Oh, you need help? Sigh…OK.
Just sit back and let COED do the dirty work of providing simple-yet-important travel tips while you reap the benefits. Lucky bastard.
Book your flight early
It’s surprising how many people don’t follow this all-important rule. Call it being a member of the A.D.D. Generation or being too busy with schoolwork, but there’s no excuse when purchasing a ticket home is just a click away. Read More »
