    Note to University Students

    Wow do you really let students reschedule exams? In undergrad we only got to skip if we were dying and then you repeated it with the class the following quarter. Until then you had an incomplete.

    People who only talk to you when they want something.

    Say no and mean it...I know several people like this and I am learing to say no.

    Chicken Pox Parties?

    Just as an aside, you don't have to actually be around the child, sharing bath towels or cups will usually work (not that I would advocate this, I have no opinion either way)

    losing stamina again

    You're right there is a ton of information and almost innumerable topics to research, but who says you have to finish it. There's no deadline. Maybe you are trying to go too fast, I know that for me learning about the Catholic church has been a slow sustained process with my understanding...

    Chicken Pox Parties?

    Now that the vaccine is becoming the norm, fewer children will be exposed naturally and so some moms go out of their way to make sure their kids get exposed in the early years.

    A Catholic Wind in the White House

    Maybe I'm mistaken but isn't that what usually happens on these state visits. Bush visits China, Bush visits Russia no one ever changes their policy they just say they had a friendly talk that furthers the good relationship. I don't have much faith that president Bush is going to change his mind...

    Just for fun... the Tickle IQ test

    I think Shannon's point is a good one, colleges can't trust that high school provided the basic foundation required for more advanced study. So rather than tackle the problems at the public schools, universities have essentially added another year. AP classes allow the student to prove they have...

    College is a Waste of Time

    Well I don't think college was a waste of my time....I'm just over a year away from a medical degree (an MD) and I wouldn't go to a doc who didn't attend college....would you let a surgeon with no education operate on you? Also just so you know much of my education has been of a practical...

    Social and pregnancy issues...

    What makes me so frustrated is not having to pay taxes for welfare, but that the government does such a poor job of managing those funds. Often women are punished by trying to improve themselves, if they try to earn any money their benefits are revoked....its completely ridiculous. Also I have...

    Cooking healthy food (offshoot of Food pix thread)

    If I'm not mistaken olive oil is not allowed during the Orthodox Lenten period (which we're in now).

    I finally did it.

    I know it can be very boring, hopefully you will get the help you need. Maybe try and use some time to focus on working on how you'll deal with the issues when you leave.

    I've had enough

    I just wanted to say that this frustrates me too....Ladybug seems to have similar views. People say you'll find the right person and the truth is that some people don't find a spouse (I personally know several). Add to that the fact that none of the churches I have ever been to (Protestant and...

    I gotta run, but: Tell me- who'e your favorite scientist & why?

    Well my parents are both scientists....can I nominate them???? But back to what Shannon was saying, I agree they had no idea what they were doing they just wanted to learn. Marie Curie also (I think) founded radiology and I am so greatful every time we order an X-ray or a CT scan. I have no...
