punk academia is:

coming to class gripping your coffee or energy drink as if it were your lifeline

letting anyone copy your notes if they ask, but keeping the messiest notes ever (despite trying to keep them neat)

raising your hand and correcting the teacher/professor when they fuck up during a lecture

sharing your marked up copies of leviathan, the communist manifesto, and the republic with anyone interested

casually debating with your friends

worn out oxfords or combat boots

dark circles under your eyes

doodling on your quizzes (even if you don't think you're any good) so you don't have to be the first to turn yours in

never being afraid to fight against the system when it's flawed (also never being afraid to fight for somebody's rights)

stress. so much stress.

(part two. y'know the drill - add shit!)

What do you mean you've never had imaginary interviews in your head where the interviewer would ask you deep questions about life, love and human existence and you would give even deeper answers and the audience would give standing ovations and some people would even tear up????

The 20's are upon us, so let's bring back going to university in suits, smoking in cafés while discussing academia, wearing bold red lipstick everyday and getting absolutely drunk on weekends while listening to jazz
