PHOTO: Chris Wellhausen&lt;\\/figcaption&gt;&lt;\\/figure&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Let&amp;#8217;s face it: the real key to the good life is figuring out a way to snowboard on someone else&amp;#8217;s dime. For the pros, it&amp;#8217;s all about sticker placement and logo time. The jobless call it &amp;#8220;funenployment&amp;#8221;. The trustfunders have mom and dad and until the ripe age of 18, we all have the pleasure\\/horror of high school keeping us afloat. But it doesn&amp;#8217;t last forever, and eventually you&amp;#8217;re going to have to do one of two things: either endure the hell of getting a job, or find anyway possible to hustle your ass right back to school.&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p style=\\\"text-align: left; \\\"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The best part about going to college (besides the ragers, co-eds, cheap season passes, sleeping til noon, etc) is that it&amp;#8217;s the last time of your life when snowboarding everyday and partying every night is fully accepted; at some of these institutions, it&amp;#8217;s downright mandatory. Plus (unlike high school&amp;#8230;), you have the freedom to choose where you want to go.&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p style=\\\"text-align: left; \\\"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Which brings us to the next step: where the hell do&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;em&gt; you go? The schools of the Rockies, Northwest, etc hold some pretty epic terrain \\u2013 no debate there. But for the college-bound really looking to live the snowboard life, it&amp;#8217;s hard to beat the vast community of sons and daughters skipping classes on the East. New England especially is home to a number of colleges and universities dedicated to keeping snowboard culture alive and well. The hard-working heritage of the region has led its youth to create something truly special from the roughness they know and ride everyday, while their pride, attitude and true grit-love of snowboarding is damned inspiring. Just one hit of the ice coast and you&amp;#8217;re hooked \\u2013 the experience of attending one the East&amp;#8217;s finest snowboard schools will forever change your perception of &amp;#8220;higher education&amp;#8221;.&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p style=\\\"text-align: left; \\\"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Here it is: The best snowboard colleges of the East Coast.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;-AH&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p style=\\\"text-align: left; \\\"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
