Challenge for the poker obsessed, lazy college student

[Keystone]

So I started my winter quarter much like many of my other quarters, by not attending class and playing a lot of poker. I realized long ago that it is not really necessary to attend class( I attend a large public university where it is rare that a class is mandatory attendance, also many professors lecture according to the book). So I came up with a challenge for myself. I am going to attempt to graduate without attending another lecture for the rest of my time here(2 years).

So far I am about 7 weeks into this and I think I am doing all right. The best part about this is that I have UNLIMITED time to play poker, drink, surf, and skate.
The rules are simple. You cant attend class at all unless there is a quiz, midterm, final, or if problem sets are due. I am sure this is stupid to many of you, but I am having the best time of my life. So who's with me?

I guess you are not in engineering.

sounds like a great way to not learn.

im in engineering and i can say it is doable at my school. (you wont make all A's, but you'll pass)

in fact, there are a great number of people who do something very close to this in all the engineer disciplines at my college. they occasionally just go or attend reviews, but other than that they are just as lazy or worse than what you specified

Sounds like a great trip report, but I wouldn't do it.

not really.
back in my day i had some teachers who just read from the book and were extremely boring. so basically if yoou just read the [censored] and do the problems on your own you might be better off.

Sad thing is, even when I went to the lectures I didnt listen anyways, so I stopped, I did alright.

I am, and I havn't been to a class since 1st year.

OP, this is a great way to go through school if you can manage it. The amount of free time you have is just amazing. My run started out of a love of sleeping in.

I am a Management Science major. Basically it is an Econ major,but focuses a lot more on the calculus side of Economics. It's not engineering,but it's not communications or art history either.
