That's a shame. I have to ask though, was that particular college writing program just lacking, or do you think it's pretty much the same situation all across the board?
It wasn't until my junior year of high school that I learned something new pertaining to writing that I hadn't already been taught in grade school. Basically, high school as a whole was pretty boring and unchallenging until that year.
