You can pass those around.
Someone with no education
beyond high school...
...can expect to make about $20,000
a year in the current job market.
Now, that being said,
over the next four years...
...you could either
spend $80,000
...or I could make $80,000.
Are you saying
you don't want to go to college?
No. I'm saying that
it is fiscally irresponsible...
...for me to go
to college. You know?
Are you huffing?
Oh, God. No.
Are you high?
You're huffing grass?
No. I'm not huffing, Mom. I'm
not stoned. I'm completely fine.
In fact, I'm more clear and
level-headed than I've ever been.
Okay, cut the crap,
Bartleby.
Society has rules.
And the first rule is
you go to college. Mmm-hmm.
You want to have a happy and
successful life? You go to college.
If you want to be somebody,
you go to college.
If you want to fit in,
you go to college.
Well, you know what? Maybe
I didn't get into college.
What do you mean?
I didn't get accepted
anywhere.
Oh, Bartleby.
Damn it.
I knew he should've started
preparing for college in junior high...
...like his sister.
Now, she's got a shot.
I've got a shot.
She's got a shot.
Listen, guys.
There are plenty of successful
people who didn't go to college.
Albert Einstein,
you know.
Pocahontas never
went to college.
Corey Feldman
and Corey Haim.
They had a great run.
Both Lewis and Clark.
Suzanne Somers. Bono.
I need to go
check on the cobbler.
"Check the cobbler. "
Glug, glug, glug.
You know, I really don't care
what Sonny Bono did or didn't do.
You're goin' to college.
I told you so.
You were adopted.
Everyone...
I would like to propose
a toast to our graduates.
To the Class of 2006...
...may the next four years
of college...
...be the best years
of your life.
Hear, hear.
Mom.
Hey.
Hey, man, what's up?
What's up, B? How you doin'? What's up?
Dude, I swear,
if one more person tells me...
...how excited they are to go
to college, I'm gonna lose it.
Oh, man, I heard about the scholarship.
That's insane. You're one of
the best receivers in the state.
Uh, the best. And, uh,
no knee, no football, man.
That sucks.
What are you gonna do now?
I have no idea.
That makes two of us, pal.
It's fine, it's fine, it's
fine, it's fine, it's fine.
Hey, Rory. What's goin' on?
Oh, hey. What? Fine. Nothing.
Um, I... I didn't get into Yale.
I did... I didn't,
I didn't get into Yale.
I didn't...
I didn't get into Yale.
What? I can't
believe that!
Well, there's no room
for Rory at Yale.
Too many rich kids
with mediocre grades...
...and well-connected parents
this year, I guess.
No room for Rory,
who's been working...
...since first grade
