Basically. Before I started college, my mother firmly believed I could pay for it by taking a summer job.

I mean if you or everyone around you did it, why would you think anything different? She probably ascribed the student loan crisis to lazy millennials.

2 yrs community college is not the right way to do engineering

the right way:
>know you want to do engineering IN HIGH SCHOOL
>research each discipline IN DETAIL
>complete as many AP courses and tests as possible
>secure a full ride or as close to one as possible so youre not stuck in community college, because it really actually is for losers
