So true. I knew several people who would borrow way more than they needed and would use it for certain living "expenses", like a car, or fraudulently, like one poster on here stated, so he/she can buy investment real estate. I took out a loan one time. I needed $2,000, I was offered $6,000. I took the $2,000 and even that I regreted.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
