Senioritis Timelines
Senioritis Timelines • Delusions of completion or accomplishment • believe they have arrived at a point to which they are still travelling. • Confusion of certainty with contingency • mistaking a "maybe" for a "for sure" – especially conditional offers of admission. • Rule disengagement • inability to recognize rules with which they have long been familiar. • Course dispensability • reduction in perceived value of courses not directly related to university entrance • Extra and co-curricular substitution • withdrawal from school-related academic studies, extra-curricular activities and school spirit events and replacement with ‘fun time’, socializing and of course ‘grad parties’.
