Congrats, @OP! I made the list once in my college too - felt good.
DDeelicious
Well done! I'm a single mum of 46 and am back at uni. It's hard work, keep it up!

It is but we've got one heck of a motivator!
DDeelicious
Yes indeed.

Omg I am 46 I do not have 46 children lmao
BeTheDeeBag1
To those asking why it looks the same as there Uni, there are 3 prominent Student Information Systems. Your school uses the same one.
Jedmonds91011
Is this Citrus College's student portal?
nspooky2nme
It's a Florida college by the numbering system
D3VI4N7
That portal is used by tons of colleges. It's the same portal as here at UIUC.
TheCuratorofAsscheeks
Wow congratulations! You passed intro classes at a community college! Would you like a fucking trophy
baconsmellsreallygood
History and Intro into technology sound like classes where if you kiss ass to the teacher theyll push your grade up
Ilikeyogurt
Wow, aren't you the social butterfly? Hopefully, you'll never have to work full time, take care of kids and a house by yourself. Oh, God (1)
Ilikeyogurt
Help you from getting into a community college because you are too good for that huh, snowflake? This woman wrote a sentence and posted (2)
Ilikeyogurt
Yet you need nothing more to tell she's 10x better than you. Go ask daddy for a new car or drown in booze, whichever fits you.
Tifandi
sad because you didn't get one? So instead you chose to be hateful? Get off of her cloud man :b
IPoopAfterDrinkingCoffee
Wow hard to believe with all those difficult classes
Ilikeyogurt
Oh, surely you could've done better given the full time job, being a single parent and taking care of a household. Please.
IPoopAfterDrinkingCoffee
I could have. You want a medal for doing high school level math? Give me a fucking break
Ilikeyogurt
Please, you don't know what you're talking about darling. Do yourself a favor and shut the hell up.
Ilikeyogurt
I doubt you even know how to wipe your own ass, really.
DirtyHybrid
As someone living outside the US, what's the significance of this?
rubbarz
Nothing. Its just a cool good job you get from the college.
AyAyRonn
The Dean has two lists - one of people he likes and one of people he hates. OP made the good one.
JustBecauseIRockDoesntMeanImMadeOfStone
Santa. You're thinking of Santa.
AyAyRonn
Well now we're just being redundant.
PreciousPotato
Question from non-American here: What are you studying? History, Literature, Technology AND Math?
Kirshna
Education basics. A teacher of some sort, I'm guessing.
DrJim
It's a liberal arts school. It's meant to give you a broad base education and then delve into more specificity in your major
motherofpibbles
I actually am najoring in Secondary Education/Englush-Language Arts. That Literature class is a prerequisite for the University program

They are in easy ass intro classes. Probably a freshman or sophomore
JustBecauseIRockDoesntMeanImMadeOfStone
You are an ass. Maybe you should stop with this internet thing and have an actual life and learn some compassion, you complete tool. Jeez!
ToxicPineapple
52 cumulative hours, definitely a sophomore.
Ilikeyogurt
Man, this is a single mom working full time and back doing something to better herself. 1. It's hard af to pull that off no matter how (1)
Ilikeyogurt
"Easy ass"an intro class is. 2. This woman is fucking proud of herself as she should be.Save your shitty opinions if they only serve to hate
eatyourmeat
Not my fault she decided fucking without a condom was more important to her future than I valued it.
Ilikeyogurt
You're what's wrong with society.
motherofpibbles
Thank you Ilikeyogurt
Ilikeyogurt
You're welcome. My mom did what you're doing and I've seen the colossal amount of effort you have to put in to achieve this. (1)
PreciousPotato
Thanks. But why should you waste time and tuition for an intro class in subjects you don't intend to study later on? Like, yeah, I want /1
HitlersWetDream
Most school (like mine) required "core" classes to be taken. Also could be electives because you need a certain amount of credits to graduat
bananerbread
Because they're required gen Ed classes. All degrees have them.
KrombopJr
Because American College is stupid and make you take and pay for a bunch of bullshit classes you don't need.
HitlersWetDream
It pisses me off that I'm paying for a class that I know I won't ever use in my major or intended career path
PreciousPotato
Especially because this is stuff that should be covered in school, critical thinking included.
zeroofshadow
thats the difference between college and a trade school, one is to be 'well rounded' and one is to join the work force properly
PreciousPotato
to become an engineer, but first I need to pass that course in literature. :P I thought that's what school was for. ^^
Cheomesh
That's extremely common in the US.When I started college for Comp Sci I spent more time doing gen-ed than any computer stuff.
NotSureIfSatireOrOpinion
I was told that many of these courses, particularly those related to math, were required by state or federal law in order to obtain our <
NotSureIfSatireOrOpinion
< degree and for the school to maintain accreditation. Six months of my two year degree were devoted to things not related to my major.
Vatricidal
American education is profit minded. 120+ hours, 4 or 5 years, to graduate but typically only 30-60 hours for your major. There's no >
baconsmellsreallygood
Also when you transfer you are given clean slate in terms of GPA. Best decision I made so far (2)
Vatricidal
Incentive to specialize; that's what you pay tens of thousands to go to grad school for.
baconsmellsreallygood
That's why ppl should go to community college to knock out the gen eds dirt cheap then come to uni to actually get into your major. (1)
asquiiiiiiisha
It's called a Liberal Arts education, and it's traditional in most US universities. The idea is to make you a well-rounded critical thinker.
PreciousPotato
... should and could be taught in school. Oh well, our system isn't perfect either. Bit cheaper, though.
TheMysticTomato
I mean I'm kind of glad it's a requirement. It makes more well rounded graduates. English classes make you a better writer and its good for
TheMysticTomato
everyone to have a basic knowledge of history. Those are about the only unrelated ones you have to take. Sometimes a fine art.
TheLingoBingo
In most European countries gen ed is covered more than adequately in high school and university is for actually learning a specific field.
zachtidmore
Gen Eds, man. They make you take a series of General Education classes that may have nothing to do with your major. It's required
BleakMidwinters
And it's required because the school receives more revenue that way
FridayNightRamen
Is that standard in american universities? In Germany this would be pretty abnormal.
ChetTheRocketStedman
Congrats. This looks eerily like the exact same layout and color of my universities online portal.

Most universities purchase and customize a software called Banner, that looks just like my uni and comm college class rosters.

It's almost as if universities purchase software solutions from 3rd parties rather than reinvent the wheel...

Man what a good idea.. imagine if more that two universities did that .. ..

At my university it usually means you are in some high percentile like the top 10%.
