I got my BA...I got options on where I go to school. I got my BA at CSU magna. 3.85 GPA. I had options when I picked CSU back in the fall of 2010. I went to Whitney Young HS. Graduated from there in 1985 with an ACT score of 27, which would be a 30 today. I picked CSU because, as a biracial student, I WANTED to go to a mostly black university. I didn't NEED to. Want vs need.<br /><br />What I WANT is determined by choice while what I NEED I must do what I have to in order to have it. <br /><br />I do not NEED to be at CSU and I judge it now to NOT be in my best interest to continue at the school. I took part in organizing the sit in today because I WANTED to, not because I NEEDED to. I could have walked away at any time and taken advantage of my options to go to other schools. <br /><br />I now have to do what I NEED to do. I NEED to protect my investment. And therefore, I will leave CSU. <br /><br />Those who don't have the options I have will pay a price I won't. The sit in meant more to those who chose to not show up than it did to me. <br /><br />They CHOSE to be victimized by Watson. They can now live with that choice. <br /><br />Deuces.Tom Painehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16968177739301957349noreply@blogger.com
