The reason high school was brought up was because one of the posters mentioned that the school in the article was a "finishing school"

how the h*ll would a high school pressure someone into majoring in something?? i have never heard of a school here doing that, they will offer guidance to you when getting ready to apply and after you have been accepted to a school, but they don't push you into a particular major. they find out what you want to do and help you work towards that. and if someone doesn't have the balls to say that s/he doesn't want to major in one thing any more, s/he wants to switch but doesn't, then i'm sorry, but s/he gets absolutely no sympathy for me regardless of whether they stay at home or work.
