    (non adult directed activities aren’t counted at all)

    I guess this closes certain avenues of BSing the system but also, wow that feels crazy arbitrary and unfair. Damn, it makes a lot of sense that this would be some kinda unspoken rule of what counts.

    Not to be too conspiracy-brain but it really fits that notion that modern schooling exists solely to subsidize corporate recruitment.

    “We made our own film/robots/fundraiser/business!” 👎👎

    “I did several months’ worth of free labor for a wealthy multinational conglomerate!” <br>😎<br> 👈👈

        Cool. I agree. Was just covering my butt online, I suppose.

        Especially because I don’t want to come off as anti-education or anti-intellectual, but the gatekeepers to that education are so beyond corrupt at this point.
