#school terms

Why are universities and colleges obsessed with packing as much as possible into a shortened term? I’m trying to figure out where and what I want to get degree in, and I keep running into the issue of 6.5-8 week terms that are normally 14-16 weeks long.

That's why they say, "Knowledge is power." When I was younger, I used to never really pay attention to those kind of sayings either. Like, "Knowledge is power?" Whatever. It's like a school term or something. But now that I'm in the know, I know exactly what it means. Because the more knowledge that you know, the more power you have because you are able - you know, let's say we're right here, right? But when you learn all these things and what you're capable of? You elevate higher and higher and higher.
