    College Grad Sues School Due to Unemployment

    Wow, talk about frivolous lawsuits. The girl graduates from a small unknown school and sues because she can't find a job after three months.

    As Thompson sees it, any reasonable employer would pounce on an applicant with her academic credentials, which include a 2.7 grade-point average and a solid attendance record. But Monroe's career-services department has put forth insufficient effort to help her secure employment, she claims.
    Wow, 2.7 GPA and a solid attendance record? 2.7 is balls and I've never heard of anybody boast of the college attendance record. The fact that she boasts that shows to me she is an idiot and should start out as a fry cook.

    Due to the new forum rules im not allowed to make a one word post. But I think these two sentence are enough to not warrant a ban with my incoming word:

    Yeah she sounds like a moron too.

    She suggested that Monroe's Office of Career Advancement shows preferential treatment to students with excellent grades. "They favor more toward students that got a 4.0. They help them more out with the job placement," she said.
    I want to see what she looks like.

    Trina Thompson from the Bronx gives you a good picture.

    She's probably Native American.

    What is a 'bachelors of business administration' anyway? I've never heard of that kind of degree. Is it just what MBA's secretaries have to earn before they go to work at their companies?

    Police show preferential treatment by mostly arresting those who break the law.

    Well the first thing I would say is "Dumb Bitch" the second thing I would say is it is stupid to highlight your GPA for two reasons, 1- her GPA isn't that high and nothing to brag about, 2- I am not sure about all industries but at least in my line of work they don't care at all about your GPA as long as it was good enugh to graduate, they care about your experience and your demo reel (for art jobs) and previous projects you have worked on.

    Seriously.. With the amount of people looking for jobs right now being a fresh grad with only a 2.7 GPA is terrible. Judging by the lawsuit it's probably a bullshit major too.

    Hell I'm having a bit of trouble finding a job having just graduated with a Physics major/Math minor degree with a 3.27 GPA... I was actually the highest GPA of my major that graduated from my college this past year too. The competition is just incredibly fierce though.

    (fortunately I have an in for an amazing job with a leading photonics company coming up next month)



    edit: yea business administration. For that kind of easy ass major it's 3.8+ or GTFO.

    My GPA is 3.34 and I'm not telling anyone during interviews....

    Edit: That said, my University has done a fantastic job helping me out so far.

    I'm not a graduate student but I have a 3.64 and I still wouldn't talk about my GPA in an interview. What the fuck @ that though. How do you brag about a C(+) average?

    edit: come to think about it I'm pretty sure if you have a semester with a 2.5 average you get academic warning/suspension at my current school. congrats on being .2 above being suspended.
