He should have also noticed that his power steering quit working, if it did, that is a very good guess.

I didn't notice it off the top of my head, but I wasn't really paying attention to the steering with the ****ty roads and lights going nuts, I was more worried about listening to anything peculiar. Whatever, the dealership will look at it and hopefully it won't be anything too crazy. I was ironically supposed to get a 120k huge inspection/tune up Friday when I got home, but I may be getting that done now instead.

I really do give NMU credit for their "right to try" stance. You never know who will end up finding their stride and doing really well. I had a friend of mine that came in on academic probation, but wound up finding something he truly loved and was good at (psychology), and wound up coming back and getting his masters. Last I heard, he was working as a counselor in VA and doing really well. It's sad that stories like that more often than not get hidden behind the myriad of others that involve failing out.
It also slights others of us who came in as good students and continued to do well, but got our reputations stained by these types. :(

I had a friend in that kind of situation at UMass. The brought him in under the continue ed program his first semester ( he initially got rejected) but he could live in the dorm, get a meal plan, basically appear to be a regular full time matriculated student. After he did well his first semester he was admited right into the university as a regular student. For years they always used him as this great example of the program (pretty much for students on the cusp).

He was the kid in his that his Guidance counclor basically told him not to both applying to college, now he has a masters and he manages fincial aid for USC Law. Now bad for a kid "too stupid to go to college".

And if he had gone to community college I am pretty sure he would just be a a manager at mcdonald's.

I was an academic casualty at tUMD, went back to school as an adult and earned my AA, BS, & MA degrees. Maturity is a wonderful thing - or so I've heard. :)

I don't like you very much. :mad:

I wasn't there altho I hear they played very well. I was watching Lil play Middle School on D (:eek: ) which he hasn't played in a few years. Acquitted himself well and was told he had 'an outstanding game' from the coach who never says anything. He is now panicking that he will be stuck on D:p

What the heck was all the trash talk in here last night??? And I am not in the mood to go back to reality. Vacation wasn't one for me at all.:(

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!! moanin' monday is here
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 95: A USCHO Retrospective

In my major if you dropped below a 3.5 you were out. We started with 90 and ended with something like 33. No wiggle room there.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 95: A USCHO Retrospective

Morning!

First day back to work after the long vacation. Email sucks as expected.

Actually, I don't have anything nearly that old in the fridge. (I checked.) I do probably have dust that is older than here in places that are hard to get to -- like under the fridge. :)

S'upp y'all....

I am tired. I could literally fall asleep right here in the research library.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 95: A USCHO Retrospective

Got to JFK on time, even though we left about an hour late. Go figure:rolleyes: They schedule Syracuse-JFK at 1h44m. Its a ~43 minute flight. Oops, that's math.

Speaking of math, part of the reason we were delayed was the gate had checked 46 people into the plane supposedly. We were on a 50 seat canadair regional jet, with 5 seats empty. The gate couldn't understand how that could be, so we literally did a 1st grade roll call. Ridiculous.

Around JFK until 11, then off to ATL on a 767-300. Should be fun.

bored.

Had to be at work at 7 today for inventory. Problem is we've laid off a big percentage of union workers so I've sort of just been standing around waiting for them to count parts.


ctf, go to class and learn how to study. I had to learn how to study when I got to college. For me, that just meant doing the assignments and maybe a practice exam or two...but that was far more than what I was used to doing in high school.

I thought my 2.6 first semester was crappy....I feel better hearing all these academic probation stories. I eventually learned to put some effort into learning and went to at least 60% of my classes. Got 3.5 or higher after my first 3 "crappy" semesters.

Maybe I'm different, but when I hear stories of hand-holding classes like ctf has to take, or even advertisements about schools with small class sizes I don't see how that helps. For me, and my chosen career, I'm glad I went to a big school where many profs didn't even know my name. Taught me how to teach myself.

Nursing, right? Those programs are insane. I believe for my roommate, she has to stay above a 3.0.
