gollark: Anyway, the convention here is seemingly to live near university while going there and shove some of the cost onto student loans you're forced to pay back for 30 years, so commuting isn't a huge issue.
gollark: I could just be lying in a convoluted way.
gollark: I may want to do engineering of some form, which does not work well remotely.
gollark: Anyway, I'm *hoping* that by the time I end up going COVID-19 won't be a huge issue and they'll actually be able to have in-person lessons and activities and such.
gollark: Interesting.
