Field trips? This isn't elementary school anymore. In college, you aren't going to get field trips, except for possible traveling during winter term. And no, your decisions aren't more important that ours. Subbie year is a rite de passage, of sorts. You earn the (ever so slightly) more rights and responsibility you get as Freshmen. You are preparing for an actual high school experience. And don't bring up the homework. We all survived cutting edge without any major injuries, and you guys can too.
