Is it worth studying something you love in college, or something that'll be beneficial for you in the workforce?
I really enjoy art and writing, I just don't think I could make a stable career out of either. I'm alright at computer science and programming, which has many job opportunities, especially since it's what everyone's turning to now, but it's not something I love or would enjoy learning. Do I...

Right now I'm a running art student and I have decided that I want to be a concept artist. I am thinking about going to Digipen in Redmon WA but its expensive. Is it worth it to go to art school, or should I try to start working right away? I have a lot of motivation to go far in this field,...
How do I ensure that college allows me to grow and become the person I am, but doesn’t change all of the things that I like about myself?
Next year I’ll be going to college, and while I am there, I fear that some of the things that I like about myself will change due to the environment I will be a part of. For example, in college, a lot of people attend parties. In my four years of high school, I have never, other than birthday...
