Like I can afford that, and like I can just uproot like that anyway. It's almost certainly too late to transfer this semester, and anyway, I have a lease that lasts until next June, which means I have to do another year at least at Greensboro doing something in the department.



The Latin Teaching one.


I think Davidson has a good Latin program, IIRC


There's definitely no way I can afford a private school, and they have a general Classics degree, not a Latin teaching one.

1: There's these things called "student loans". Also, TAP and Pell grants.
2: You're a college student, there really isn't much uprooting involved.


1: Which there's no guarantee I'd get enough of.
2: Losing all the connections I've spent the last two years making, leaving my boyfriend in another state, finding a new synagogue, not to mention I'd be leaving the clubs I'm an officer for in the lurch.

how much of the education dept is left?


I dunno. I've e-mailed my advisor and am hoping to figure that out. With luck, maybe current students will at least be allowed to complete the program, but who knows?

Sorry to say you may need to wait a bit to figure it all out, when the announced cuts filter down to the how's and whys At the school level. Definitely need to chat with the advisor

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

1: Of course not. The only guarantee in life is that it will end.
2: As I said, not much. There's other synagogues, the clubs are just clubs, and moving doesn't mean losing connections - it means making more.

At the next meeting I'll ask how far the lizard people in their underground laboratories have progressed with the ultimate superflu. Thanks for reminding me!
