text: These students are hiding from the world with their college lifes and are afraid of the real world.  No matter which college you attend, they all are nothing like the real world.  Also, these students are probably the homeless people you'll see in a decade or so.  Most people run out of funding for schooling eventually...especially without the education behind them to find a good job.  Why would anyone possibly want to spend extra time in school?  It decreases their earning potential (there is such a thing as "over-qualification"), adds extra anxiety (exams, grades, etc.), takes extra years off of their life, makes them that much farther from retirement, and they won't earn as much over a lifetime because it's less time in the job market.
