Another major difference is the professors and teachers between university and high school. In university, I am required to be more responsible for my own education. Because even though we were ordered to do homework like a child. But no one came to note that we do that? Or call the parents to sue that we didn't do his homework.
In college, I find my social life has changed. Since I'm away from my parents, it's easy for me to go out anytime I want especially during at night where there was no curfew at all. While in high school my parent doesn't allow me to go out as often as I wanted.
There is no writing letters home to your parents telling them your homework isn't done or you were talking in class – and no detention.
