The Pros and Cons of Moving Home After Graduation
Monday, March 29, 2010While I may be on spring break, I'm aware that those of us on the semester system have a mere 4 weeks of class left before summer. For the graduating seniors, there are probably many outstanding questions to be answered. A big one is: "What am I doing after graduation?" Another one is, "Will I have to move home?" My post-grad plans are solidified by now, but we've received some advice by the way of Her Campus, the female-version of HackCollege (maybe?).
Some girls gravitate back towards home out of convenience. Others make the move in order to save money. Could moving back work for you? To help you figure it out, postgraduates and college seniors shared with [Her Campus] some pros and cons of moving home.
While I know that most of the readers of HackCollege are dudes, the advice put forth by this article reaches across the gender divide. Maybe we should organize some sort of soirée between the two sites. Ladies? In the meantime, take a read.

Wow, I didn't know that HackCollege was supposed to be "male"...?? Now I feel weird
-a girl
Yeah, I'm also a girl who reads this site...but I guess I'm not welcome. My bad. I'll just go to one of those fluffy pink "girl sites" and talk to my girlfrenz about like, shoes and stuff. 'Cause after all, it's pretty unfathomable that our pathetic ladybrains would want to learn how to, I dunno, HACK COLLEGE.
Jeez.
Haha. Oh you gals know I'm just kidding. It's not supposed to be either or, but the numbers don't lie.
Where're the numbers from? It's possible that the male readers are just the ones answering surveys, posting comments, etc. Self-selected samples.
Though saying that a site that's generally gender-neutral is "male" is not exactly a good way to keep your female audience, or make women feel welcome in a dialogue you're creating...
Well! its better to move back to your home, your parents can guide you on what to do after graduation and they can advice on how to get a job. It's a better way to budget money and spend time with the family and to think of your plans after graduation on what to do with your life. Please visit my blog.... Oidale's Blog thanks a lot....
I've been out of my parents' home for so long that I couldn't imagine moving back.....could've been a better option, though, right out of school. It does give you a chance to save up money for a new place :)
