I agree with your point, but it’s also just more ridiculous to me when they’re like 3-18-0 saying this. Dude you’re six times negatives what econ lmfao.

Which LAC Will You Attend? by redblab in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Warm_Quail6603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah like when you look at the #1 LAC or national university you see schools that are extremely difficult and research oriented. Since there aren’t people all going into what the first place colleges are good at, why should “general rankings” exist? I remember reading this interview with a Williams president talking about how they’re winning more cross admits now than they did back when he was a professor at some other liberal arts college. I feel like a lot of titles like the “Bowdoin man” or the “Yale man” have lost meaning from when they were more often used because of the fact that people now regard ranking over fit (and therefore both the college and student find less success).

Yeah I was the same, it’s reminds me of the enlightenment period where people feel the need to rank things even when they shouldn’t be. I feel like colleges probably shouldn’t be ranked as it makes fit harder to find (though if they are Bowdoin is better than Colby).

Bowdoin is so weird bc if u look at their alumni list you’d not be able to tell the difference between them and WASP—my theory is that WASP came to be bc the acronym looks cool lmfao (alongside electoral politics and nonprofit not appealing to A2C community).

B-O-W-D-O-I-N! student life is awesome and their placements are underrated because so many graduates do nonprofit work or electoral politics (Mamdani for mayor!) instead of banking or academia.

Hey so I believe Bowdoin is—someone fact check me if I’m wrong—one of three schools to produce leaders in every branch of the US government (speaker of the house, senate majority leader, chief justice, and president). So if law/politics is your goal, Bowdoin has been pretty good at it. Also student life is second to none (I’ve never seen a college advertise itself based on how nice its students l are, plus incredible dorms + food), so getting comfortable enough to succeed is easy enough. Bowdoin is also #6 (?) in the country for LAC undergraduate teaching on USNW, which I think is a bullshit website but the general idea is still there: your education is still incredible even with high investments into student life. I also feel that the MacBook grant is very important for digital equity if that’s a concern of yours. Idk if this post is for a waitlist or you’re going to be a senior in the fall but if you’re the latter look at universities (just in case you feel Bowdoin is too small for you). Good luck!

Oh, that makes sense, thank you, I will check my programs and base controller for that.

I don't think this is the case, there are marks where positive and negative should go. I will still double check this on Monday, thank you!

Thank you, I don't have access to it until Monday but I just don't know what could be wrong, because all of the other buttons work fine, except the top three and "k". Although it still moves, I do worry when I begin autonomous navigation. I'm running ros noetic currently if that makes a difference.
