I don't like this bill, it's gonna mess things up for us students. Why do they always gotta change stuff? It's gonna make it harder for me to get my degree, and that's not cool. I wish they would just leave things alone sometimes. Short term, this bill is gonna cause a lot of confusion and stress for students like me.
