[0] Personal Freedom [High School] High School is mandatory and free (unless you choose other options). Your time is usually structured by others (parents and/or teachers). You need permission to participate in co-curricular activities. You need money for special purchases or events. You can depend on your parents and teachers to remind you of your responsibilities and help you set priorities. All correspondence is addressed to your parents. They read it and tell you what you need to know. Guiding Principle: You will usually be told what your responsibilities are and corrected if your behavior is out of line. [College] 
College is voluntary and expensive. You manage your own time. You need money to pay for basic necessities. You will be faced with many moral and ethical decisions you have not previously had to face. You must balance your responsibilities and set priorities. All correspondence will be addressed to you. You must read all your mail, as you will be responsible for its content. Guiding Principle: You are now responsible for what you do and what you don't do, as well as for the consequences of your decisions.
