Case Study Chapter 3
She should remain in college because its only her first year. She should at least finish taking her pre requisite classes and then by the time shes done she should know what shed want to do by then.

What concerns me most about Nicks behavior is that he is selfish and only thinks about his self.
No I do not agree with Laurens decision to start skipping classes because Nick is clearly only thinking about himself and how lonely he is. He shows no concern about Lauren skipping classes and having her grades drop because of this.
