You know what fosters a learning environment in college? Fine, you're right. I skipped far too many classes to know what best fosters a learning environment in college, but I do know what doesn't and it's an 11 year old asshole that's smarter than everyone else in the room. Feeling inferior is without a doubt the fastest way to get a group of hungover co-eds to call it quits on studying. I know this because I took AP Chemistry as a senior in high school and the rest of the class was made juniors that were far more intelligent than myself. Bet your ass I struck a deal for a guaranteed 'C' before that semester was even halfway over, because feeling stupid doesn't make anyone want to be smart. It makes you want to murder the know-it-all showoff that's about 8 grades above his age range. I don't think I have ever considered bullying an 11 year old but if that little fucker showed up in my 8AM freshman Calculus class back in the day I wouldn't have lasted two weeks before I silenced him by threatening to steal his TI-83. You think I'm going to start an e-mail chain with a condescending, pre-pubescent genius when I need help with my organic compounds? Ha! That'll be the day. Rather scare that little brat right back to the 5th grade classroom he came from. Go outsmart your peers but don't try to bring that high brow bullshit up the educational food chain, because the big fish will eat you alive...or more likely toss you in a campus garbage can.
