Buz and Stif barely squeaked through high school. Still, with diplomas in hand, thanks to Drakesville High’s lax grading policies, they’re in a mood to open a few cans of beer. What now? Stif, a high school league basketball star who didn’t make it into the majors, doesn’t think much about the future. He figures he already had one. Buz, though, the thoughtfull one, has put his brain power to work. There aren’t many job opening in Drakesville that don’t involve hamburger flipping, and it would be even worse in N.O., so why not go to college like everyone else? At nearby Peabody State University, admission is easy and everything is paid by your student loan. With a college degree in hand, their job prospects would be fantastic! After only four years tons of girl friends would be totally impressed! So why not go for it?
