    Just finished my undergrad (BA in history) two and a half months ago at Westminster College, Salt Lake City. Now I've got to figure out where I want to go for further studies in linguistics.

    I'm at a JC right now finishing up my GE. I then plan on going to San Jose State where I plan to study in their SLIS program majoring in archiving and minoring in Military History. From there I plan on going to Europe (probably to the University College London) for my Masters and then from there I plan to get a PhD somewhere else maybe...that parts tentative. I might even go to Australia for it Queensland University of Technology. It's gonna be soooo much fun

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    Wesleyan was one of the few eastern schools that I seriously considered applying to - goodness knows they expended a fair amount of effort trying to get me to come. I think I shied away, though, if for no other reason than that I would have felt horribly provincial, being just a "bum yokel" from the rural Midwest. (Not a very good reason, I know.)

    All right, I have to ask the smartass question: Are your grades that good, or are your parents that loaded? Or is it (hopefully) both?

    Master in chemical engineering at LTU (Luleå technical university).

    One year left.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

    I've just finished my first year studying for a Master of Physics degree at the University of Oxford (Worcester College).

    Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.
