Daniel W. Drezner: An open letter to incoming college freshmen from one of your parents

Greetings and salutations! I am not an entering college student, but the proud parent of one. First off, congratulations! Going to college is a big life transition, and I am sure that you are eager to be on your way to making new friends, learning new things and living semi-independently. Which is a polite way of saying that you cannot wait until the rest of your family is not up in your grill 24/7.

After at a year plus of parents nagging prodding you about the importance of a college education, I bet they are on your last nerve.
