what would you say is more important in school, the knowledge that you receive, or the grades that you earn? because to me, the knowledge seems rather useless, there's rarely any real-life applications and chances are you'll forget most of what you learned over winter break or the summer. grades, however, measure your "ability" to learn something, which is something that can't really be forgotten and may be forever essential.

however, my friend tells me that you should seek knowledge rather than just a grade because you can continue to use that knowledge outside of the class, while the grade is related only to the class itself. so what really is more important, grades or knowledge?

My son is 21 and graduated with a 2-year degree from a community college. He is entering a state university under a special program where he is going in as a Junior. He didn't get to apply for on-campus housing until June, so he didn't get his choice of an apartment or suite. They have put him in a dorm, sharing a room with 1 other person. Thankfully, I don't think it is one of the Freshmen dorms.

He's very focused, non-drinker, non-smoker and very mature for his age. What are the chances of him not getting frustrated with dorm living and sharing a room? What can he expect?

In elementary school, I remembered learning that saying, "How Come" was always improper. Instead, "Why" should be used. Is this still true today, or is "How Come" now proper English?
