Shaw & Co. are to be duly impressed—our young hero applies an entirely different set of criteria when it comes to fulfilling his General Education (The Curriculum Formerly Known as Core) requirements. Rather than “What will I learn?,” he asks himself, “When will I wake up to go to class?” After then cross-referencing those options with his now-only-digital Q Guide, with an eye toward maximizing his grade...
