Precisely! I have the unconventional view that a university is an educational experience not a social experience. I have met too many people with degrees who had a great time at university and learnt SFA.
There is a distinct advantage being the old guy; it is easy to ace all the exams and walk away with the scholarship awards because all the young nitwits blow their brains out on booze and partying.
