A lot of college students don’t even come to class. I think, maybe half of the students drop of out the university completely. Of course, this might not all be due to immaturity. They might just feel that the blue collar workforce has more to offer.
A lot of it is immaturity. For instance, older students who go back to school later in life are often great students, work very hard and have low rates of dropout. They are simply more serious.
When I was in my early 40′s, I met this 20 year old girl. I was worried about the age difference and I asked her, “Am I too old?” She laughed and said, “Oh no! You are perfect! All men are boys until age 40.”
