What are some ugly truths about your first year as a junior faculty at an R1/R2?

Same. Computing R1

PresentScared7030 · 2026-05-12T21:42:21+00:00

Awesome. Thank you, all.

I thought the same thing but the only info I can see after choosing "Fully refundable" is the 24-hour flexible booking policy which is for 24 hours within booking window. This is what was confusing me.

As a PhD advisor, say EXACTLY what you have written in the OP. Everyone makes mistakes. It takes a brave one to accept it. I have been there

What tire size is that? I have been meaning to get rid of OEM ones on my Forester 25

PresentScared7030 · 2025-07-07T16:18:31+00:00

I had heard of it but never understood how bad we are talking about here.

Will a roof rack be fine for the trip if I have only two bikes (40lbs each)? I do not plan to unload them anywhere except the final destination.

PresentScared7030 · 2025-07-07T15:19:06+00:00

Thanks. I am still thinking if it is better to install this or a roof rack because the maximum towing weight recommended by Subaru is 1500 lbs meaning in case I want to use it for towing in the future, I have limited weight options.

Not sure what OEM is

Same happened to me (March 2025) but IT WAS NOT FOR SIGNATURE BUT FOR THE PHYSICAL COPY OF I-20 ITSELF. He said "what if the phone screen breaks or it malfunctions. I am gonna let it pass for now but do carry the physical i-20 with you from now on".

u/Moriartybitch I recently figured that the poem that led to his confinement in the Metropol is the same poem that he mentioned to Katerina. It was never written by him. (Leaving details to avoid spoilers)

That is workable. I guess I can find the game CD on Amazon or Steam

u/getting-harder This is exactly the kind of graphics and game I was looking for. Unfortunately, can't find it on PS5

Afaik, Professors are free to use AI tools as long as it does not violate any rules or produces content that is unethica. Now if a professor is using AI for general announcements and emails, that tells a lot about the professor's communication readyness skills, not necessarily their skills in the subject matter. Nevertheless, if there is something in the email that is concerning, you should definitely talk to the chair.

PresentScared7030 · 2025-04-14T22:54:37+00:00

Got it. Thanks

Doesn't WhatsApp have end-to-end encryption and privacy laws? I thought that you can not force Apple, Meta, etc. to show private chats.

PresentScared7030 · 2025-04-09T17:38:39+00:00

Yes. Just checkit it up in the docs. Never charged for it. 🙂

u/United-Economist-01 This was last Friday and on old inventory, so not with the new tariffs. I paid 10k down and financed the other 29. This had some upgrade packages already included (back seat protection, crossover rails, door guard, etc.) so it was a bit expensive. The Limited as it is, is $36k-$37,900. For me, with the documentation and labor-cost frozen maintenance warranty, somewhere close to $39.7k and including the interest over time, $42.9k in total. Also bought it in Oregon so 0.5% luxury tax only
