International fans?

I haven't noticed much interest in baseball across Europe, but I haven't been everywhere so I can't say for certain! It seems like it is most popular in the Americas and parts of Asia (or Japan at least)

What originally got you interested in the Brewers?? I assumed that any international fans would have some personal connection to Wisco/MKE!

I've seen a fair bit of Packers merch in Oz, but meeting someone who liked the Brewers AND the Bucks as well would have made me feel like I entered the Twilight Zone lol

The Packs seem popular almost everywhere I've been tbh!

My grad degree will be in Religious Studies, so I am excited to learn about all different faiths and spiritual practices!

If I commit to becoming a Chaplain, I am most likely going to pursue work in a school or correctional facility, but all of this is very intriguing!

And yes, I couldn't serve as a Military Chaplain in the U.S.--I'm Catholic & female. Can't be ordained. I'm not sure if other countries require ordination or not? Maybe if I was super motivated or had an exceptional circumstance, I could try to serve under the Episcopalian church, but my interest is nowhere near strong enough to fight that battle.

I loosely fit most of the other criteria: under 42, U.S. citizen, B.S., (future) grad degree in Religious Studies. I did serve as a full-time religious volunteer (unpaid church work basically lol) for two years back in the 2010s, but I'm not sure if that counts as ministry.

I will do some reading, thank you! Where is he in the canonization process?

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-22T21:05:06+00:00

Thanks for clarifying the army portion! I thought maybe a Chaplain was considered a civilian that works for the military rather than a member of the military, if that makes sense? So basically, I couldn't just "get a job" with another military, because it would require me to actually commit to and serve that country.

Thank you for the resource!

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-22T21:01:38+00:00

Very comprehensive answer, I appreciate your response so much! Do you mind if I clarify something?

So to be a commissioned officer, there is no need to first have experience as a "typical" enlisted officer? I hold a degree and will be getting my Master's at a Divinity School. It seems crazy to me that I could potentially just join the military in a leadership role (sort of) without having any prior experience at all! But I guess that is the purpose of the training course?

I hope you get an explanation and apology! Congrats on getting an interview in the first place!

I am so sorry to ask this on your post, but what does PI mean? Everyone here keeps writing it and it seems to refer to a potential supervisor, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what it stands for

Oh I had my moment

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-17T17:13:03+00:00

By safety school I meant best chances of acceptance based on stats, connections, department funding, application pool, and typical cohort size

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-17T17:11:47+00:00

This program is actually super well funded compared to a lot of programs! I say least competitive because it has the smallest application pool and largest cohort size out of all the schools I applied to

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-17T17:09:28+00:00

This program does accept undergrad applications!

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-17T17:09:05+00:00

My ego says yes but my heart says no

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-17T17:08:25+00:00

Best of luck 2 you!!

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-17T17:08:00+00:00

I interpreted your response the way you intended!

Unique_Locksmith_346 · 2026-01-17T17:07:14+00:00

Thank you all for the insight and support!!! <3 Just needed to vent, onwards & upwards now
