It's a silly distinction. If you are "going to college/university," you could be going for any number of degree programs, from a Bachelor's Degree, to an Associates Degree, to a Master's Degree, or whatever. The degree program is irrelevant. If you are going to school, and it is a college or university, you are going to college/university.

Any response to "ive been thinking"
I usually quickly respond "you okay?" in a concerned tone.
Yes and no.
I have never had a lust for power. I have never had a desire to do things that people in power abuse their position to do (like nightmare islands, sex with interns, crushing minorities). I don't even have an intense desire for money beyond basic comfort (I would love to have money for a boat right now, but I'm content saving up for it). So corruption for any of that? No.
However, I am not sure I have the capability of doing good in a proper way. I can't tell if I'd be a Sisko or if I would just fail to achieve any of my aims out of not wanting to do things the wrong way (if you go authoritarian to try to make things better, is that still corrupt or evil?). The world is a fucked up, difficult to navigate place, morally, when you are making decisions for a lot of people.
So yeah, I could avoid corruption for my own sake, but I don't think I would be able to be a benevolent dictator.
To your second point:
how often I send an email with a bulleted list of issues that need to be addressed and the response only addresses a fraction of them while the rest are ignores.
I typically will reply with just the bulleted points they didn't address and then keep sending it with less and less bullets until either they answer all points or stop replying... after the third or fourth reminder email. I make sure the previous emails are in the string and never change the title.
I cut my own hair every weekend. I'm in the military, though (and no, I don't just shave it). I found that I do it more to my liking (and consistently) than the barbers I've gone to, it only takes 20 minutes, I don't have to pay $30, and I can shower immediately after. I use a 6 (3/4 inch) on top, a 3 (3/8 inch) around the curve transitioning to the sides, and then fade down from there, 2 to 1.5 to 1 and finally .5 (1/16 inch) around my ears, side-burns, and most of the back. Keeps everything clean, I always look good, and I spend about $40 every year or two.
I was just thinking, if my kids did that I would tattoo at least part of it. That would be an amazing tattoo to have.
I think people haven't gotten to the point of arguing with you because they have no idea what you're trying to say.
To be clear, I'm not arguing with you either.
I feel like "render unto caesar what is caesar's" to mean "pay your taxes. The money you're using is theirs. Your faith and beliefs aren't really part of that."
Which is really funny in the current political context.

I just started watching Voyager and got to that part. I couldn't believe she actually said the line, I thought that was a joke.
