Why do people think college is so great?

because everyone around me thinks college is important, and I dont see the point, I know what I want to do in life and it has nothing to do with learning academic bull**** all day. It locks you in, forces you to stay in one little spot while you take all those cles on one little subject then be a good little boy and take a job, that locks you in to that one place forever. I study and study but apparently 74% is not good enough for my history cl, the professor has a propietary grading policy where you must get 21 on each test. Not a point lower. I have a 20, and I tried to retest but the testing center said I can't because I don't have a yellow slip and well.. you need a yellow slip "thats the rule". So now I fail probably. Government burahracies are so great, nothing like a bunch of people sitting in a testing room doing nothing getting paid tons to do a job Wal-mart would pay someone $5 for.
