I definitely have more school pride being in college. I didn't like HS all that much and couldn't wait to get out of there. Also, a lot of the student body at my HS were slackers who had the "i dont give a f--k" mentality. All the wanted to do was surf. All these guys who thought they were too cool for things..never sang at pep rallies, didn't care about the school, etc. Especially in my grade. They didn't even sing at graduatioin so we sounded like crap!!!! Plus sports wise we were terrible. So that never made it fun either. And I hate how you are treated like a child in HS....passes for the bathroom and the locker, not being allowed to leave campus for lunch, having the security guards ask you a million questions if you are caught outside class--even with a pass!!! I'm sorry, but that is not preparing you for the real world. But in college most people are there cause they want to be as opposed to cause they have to be and so that contributes a lot the the pride, I think. And my school did awesome in bball and football last year and should do it again this year so that makes it easier to have pride.
