I went to community college and did well enough to get into a real university( University of Florida). The biggest shock of my life was that in most cases my community college teachers were superior to the processors at Florida.

I had a chemistry professor that refused to go easy on us because, "I might have to work with some of you one day." As teaching was his night job.
