So I've had a sneaky suspicion for awhile now about something and it was just confirmed today.
My husband and I both go to the local community college: I'm in their nursing program, and he is doing his general ed classes to work towards getting his teaching degree. I've often thought that students at the college probably don't like the nursing students much. Why? Practically the whole back lot of the college is dedicated to the nursing students, in addition to dental hygiene and occupational therapist students. We've all got the newer buildings with the hi-tech equipment (nearly every classroom is supplied with computers, for example) while the other part of the campus is older and contains a lot of the original architecture (I believe the main building was built in the mid 1800s). My husband and I had a discussion about this awhile back mainly because most of his classes have been in the old main building and he agreed.
Anyway, today I went up to the local Subway to get a sandwich. I had my college t-shirt on since I've been cleaning and watching Disney movies with my 3 year old. As I'm paying for my food, the cashier, a man probably in his 20s notices my shirt and comments on it: "So you go to that school too huh?"
I answered "Yes I do, I love it."
"What are you going for?"
"Nursing."
His response which now included a sour look on his face: "Oh.....that's something I guess."
Sneaky suspicion confirmed!
