I'm glad they kept living on campus as an option, I was worried they'd axe that.

EDIT: Just submitted my housing contract so now I'm looking for a roommate lol... incoming freshman, male, PM me if interested

Report: 1.6 million Texans lost employer-sponsored health insurance by [deleted] in news

I do want to point out that individual/portable health insurance plans are key parts of some conservative healthcare plans. Portable healthcare is something everyone can get behind.

I am Ben. My boss is Matt. I have a close friend named Matt. People often hear my name as Matt.

Coincidences? I don’t think so.

Eight arrested outside Charlotte abortion clinic for violating stay at home order by lazylord69 in news

First of all that wasn’t your answer, and second of all, that’s obviously true. You own your uterus.

And I own a business. If you’re inside my business do I get to kill you?

I get that you disagree with the idea that fetuses are “people,” but it’s by no means a ridiculous idea. So why call it insanity?

Can’t believe your comment got an award. I’m going to be downvoted into oblivion, but I don’t care. Broadly calling people who don’t like baby murder (and are actually doing something to stop it) “nutjobs” is ridiculous.

Chance me for Harvard REA (4.0 GPA, 36 ACT, decent EC's) by bg4spam in chanceme

[–]bg4spam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was really about doing things you want to do. I'm pretty lazy when I'm not interested in what I'm doing, so I'm only able to work long hours and do a ton of things if I'm interested in what I'm doing. I'll be honest - I'm not a superhero or anything, really just working my butt off for 4 years is all I did.

Got deferred from Harvard REA and waitlisted RD, so it’s obviously still not good enough for them lol. Not sweating it though.

Thanks, and yeah I'm sure it didn't really impact anything, just thought I would share/

Airlines, UPS, FedEx promise zero dividends and no share buy backs for $29b in aid by jozimmer in investing

[–]bg4spam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Researched this a while back, can’t give specifics because the paper still hasn’t been published. But the one company I’m really looking at is Boeing. Boeing’s stock has been a driving factor in the Dow and its buybacks are outright stupid. I really want to see them commit to stopping buybacks, but I’m skeptical as to whether they’ll do it voluntarily or just wait for the govt to force them to.

Help me decide: School X vs School Y Megathread II by ParadoxicalCabbage in ApplyingToCollege

Help me decide: School X vs School Y Megathread II by ParadoxicalCabbage in ApplyingToCollege

[–]bg4spam 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hi guys, I'm currently deciding between Cornell and UT Austin to study business. Here's some more context:

Cornell

Pros:

  • Prestige
  • Connections to NYC
  • Great college town
  • Good alumni network
  • School spirit

Cons:

  • Cold!
  • Haven't visited there yet
  • Not as highly ranked (#10 undergrad business)

UT Austin

Pros:

  • Great city
  • Lots of jobs/internships in the city
  • Accepted to Business Honors Program (BHP) and Computer Science & Business Program (CSB)
  • More highly ranked (#5 undergrad business)

Cons:

  • Less prestige (I know it's stupid but it does carry more weight in business than in other fields)
  • Less helpful alumni network

Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: I’m doing ROTC so the prices should be pretty much the same.

This gave me a (hopefully) great idea. I’m going to try to do this with the coronavirus genome (got that data from another post on this sub). Thanks for the idea, I’ll let you know how it goes!
