News Time and Place: Tech trek
Posted by TL Pixley on Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 1:02 PM
I saw Taylor Medford walking down the street on Centennial Olympic Park Drive. He looked like bags with legs. Taylor is about to enter his sophomore year at Georgia Tech and he was just arriving in Atlanta for the summer, walking from the MARTA station to his Tech housing. The worst part of college for Taylor? “I thought I hated French in high school but I hate physics so much more, I never thought I would hate anything more than high school French. But I do. It's Georgia Tech physics.” The best part of college for Taylor? “The freedom, being able to do what you want, taking the classes you want and not having your nagging parents wake you up every morning and tell you to go to class.”
