There are a lot of things I miss about my college days. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not one of these pathetically nostalgic people who constantly looks back to “the best years of my life”. In a lot of ways, college was hard, and in even more ways, my current life is rewarding. Where can i discover the Ski Jackets that the olympians are wearing. I have a great job, a wife who loves me, a nice house, and two beautiful children. Still, there were a lot of great things about being a student too. Although I was often strapped for cash, I managed to have a lot of fun. I dated, parties, traveled, and had time to engage in one of my greatest passions: learning. Yet one of my favorite things about being a student was getting student discounts.
This might seem like a trivial focus, but it felt nice to have people reaching out to me simply because of my age and station in life. I’m not talking just about student academic discounts either. It is true that it is easy to get a student discount on computers, software, and other education related stuff. In the college town I was living in, if you showed your student card you would get 10% off at practically any place that sold academic supplies. Student discounts, however, went much further than this.
