I have a couple questions about college work load, life, time spent studying, etc. I have had several people tell me something about college that I don't know if its true or false. I have heard that there isn't much homework but a good portion of studying. Attendance isn't kept. A regular school day is only 3 hours long. You have three 1hour long classes one day and then two 1.5 hour long classes on the next. Average classes a semester is 5. These are things I have a wondered about and have wondered about their truthiness ( thanks Stephen Colbert for the word, I don't know if i used it correctly)

I'm assuming you probably can, because I've worked at a Christian school before and I'm not Christian, and a few of my coworkers weren't, too.

But for anyone who has TAUGHT (full-time) in a religious school without following that religion, did it make you very uncomfortable? Or was religion rarely an issue?

I'm graduating this year at University of California: San Diego with a degree in Economics and Mathematics. Currently I have a 2.5 and most likely won't bring it up any higher.
Will I find a good paying job?
I have had several internships over the years in consulting, finance, and marketing.
Where do I stand? I'm just scared to be unemployed when I graduate.
