breadth requirements

Share definition Flag
When colleges require students, who may be spending tens of thousands of dollars per year on tuition, to take courses outside their majors in order that they become "well-rounded". Wonderful if your last name is Rockefeller. Hard to justify if your poor mother is scrubbing floors to put you through college.
Breadth requirements are things such as Physics majors being required to take classes in Medieval Literature, or Art majors being required to take Calculus.

liberal education requirement 

Share definition Flag
A class required by the higher education system. It assists no one in the completion of any type of degree. The knowledge is forgotten once the class is complete and the money you spent on it is wasted because the class benifits no one at all.
College Student 1: "Hey man what liberal education requirement class are you taking?"

College Student 2: "I'm taking a chemistry lab because when I get my accounting degree I'll have to mix chemicals....a lot."

College Student 1: "I would rather just throw the money into my toilet and flush it down then take these ridiculous classes."

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
