Spend a lot of time on compliance
by Matt
The hope is to develop flexible thinkers, but often we are too directed in what we ask students to do, and even the "choices" are structured
by Ruede
To find a job in an area of interest and to be successful adults. To know how to interact socially face to face with people.
