Sidney and I are driving down the road late one evening, headed to a late closing for work, when we pass the community college I graduated from last fall...
"Mom, there's your school!"
"Yes, it is."
"Remember when you graduated high school? And I was there!"
"You weren't at my high-school graduation. You weren't even born yet."
"Yes, I was! I walked on the stage with you!"
"That wasn't my high school graduation, that was my college graduation."
"Oh..."
"....."
"Mom, when are you going to go to a real college?"
And thus Sidney continues to procure the stereotype that MECC is not a real college.
Way to go, kid.
