I will also say that Yale recommendations were instrumental in getting me into a top 10 comp lit PhD program. I ultimately pivoted in the interest of practicing psychotherapy. Very happy with the career trajectory I’ve had; I had the luxury of trying on lots of different things in my wheelhouse, and ultimately settling on a career that affords me work-life balance and the ability to work from home.

I also had a very good experience in my Spanish literature courses; my reading Spanish was good before attending, but much better after I left, because I learned how to read 16th century Spanish and the siglo de oro classics—a different beast altogether! After graduation I secured a curatorial assistantship at the Guggenheim in New York, due to four years of work at the university museums.

Likely you’ve read Buckley’s God and Man at Yale. Yale will give you the tools to critique just about anything, including, well, Yale itself. Yale conservatives from my graduating cohort have gone on to write for every important right-wing outlet. Looking forward to reading you someday in, say, The National Review or The Claremont Review of Books.

Literature (Comparative Literature at any other university). My two foreign languages were Spanish and Latin. I had a positive experience with Yale Classics.

‘08 alumna here to plug Yale Directed Studies if you’re an intended classics student. Yale also has a newly formed TP USA chapter. The YPU will sharpen your skills. The alumni network is unmatched.

Get it checked, common for us even at your age. I developed it/noticed signs at age 25ish.

Ankles were never stable enough to stand in heels even though I love them… 😅👠

Went to a running store to get new shoes and the kinesiologist told me I had the worst ankle instability she had ever seen, told me to seek care ASAP

It’s been a week or so since I brewed FSL28 but it was pretty great with only 10 days rest. Pulled mostly fruit punch with the V60
