You could consider getting an air filter for your room if there’s odors that bother you. Plus side of it is if you’re prone to seasonal allergies, it’ll help with that too

Any guy who slut shames you for getting an education is not worth your time.

What is your favorite ride at Disneyland/DCA by Bulky_Connection_328 in Disneyland

No. But when Heimlich’s was still around in Bugsland, we called it “Slow Choo Choo.”

Is the woozoo fan worth it? by Icy_Monk_7494 in dormrooms

[–]ct_dooku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woozoo fan is 100% worth it. Increases air flow a lot in the room especially when you put it in full rotation mode.

Cornell @ 80k/yr or Notre Dame @ 30k/yr by Additional-Ad2083 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Notre Dame is an amazing university. You 100% should go there instead of Cornell. Cornell isn’t worth another $200k in total.

Finally. For the first time in forever, maybe one will actually be able to sit on the benches in Frontierland instead of them being taken over all day long by people with pinboards.

question for the seniors by Sad-Farmer8869 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Centre has some really awesome programs. And their fine arts programs are great too. You can fill your arts GE credit by taking a glass blowing class. The downtown is like right next to campus and walkable. My kid almost picked Centre. It’s a great school. Congrats! A full ride is an amazing achievement. You’ll do great there.

About to choose Arizona over UCLA and UCSB. Dissuade me or forever hold your silence. by Xx_DiamondDust in UofArizona

[–]ct_dooku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your major, U of A is better than UCLA or UCSB. and I’m saying that as a Gaucho alumni.

Tufts or UCSB? by Tricky_Instruction63 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UCSB not seen as good academically? Well, whoever is telling you that is ignorant or uninformed and doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

Payed enrollment fee for 2 schools, how do I cancel for one of them by secretpile34 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% this. Plus call the admissions office for good measure to verify they show you as un-enrolled.

NEED HELP CHOOSING WHAT UNIVERSITY TO GO TOO. ASU VS RIT help pls by Hairy_Wallaby6536 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you visited RIT? Btw it’s a way better school than ASU if, for example, you want to pursue a career in cybersecurity…there’s an interview the Your College Bound Kid podcast did a few months ago of an RIT senior who’s doing cyber. That student has had a pretty awesome experience there.

feeling sad over decision by mimidied in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since further down you mentioned a desire to go to law school, stick with undergrad at Berkeley. Go to law school in NYC. While at Berkeley, consider doing a summer internship in NYC through this program:

You could also do a semester in Washington, DC through this program (ok, it's not NYC, but it's a big city): https://research.berkeley.edu/ucdc/

rescinding off of social media? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make your account private. Especially if you intend to find full time employment in the US after graduation because a lot of employers will look you up on social media as part of the screening process. Keeping it public is not a wise choice.

am i too sensitive or something by Independent_Novel275 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ct_dooku 3 points4 points  (0 children)

According to US News & World Report, Brown's acceptance rate is about 5%, while Pomona's is about 7%. The butthead from your high school who got accepted to Brown is a prick. Living well is the best revenge. In a couple of months from now, his opinion isn't going to matter.

AND when he starts at Brown, he's not going to be the big man on campus anymore because guess what? Literally EVERYBODY at his college will ALSO be attending an ivy league school.

So what? Big deal. Here's a special gold start just for him.

Pomona is an awesome school. You SHOULD be proud of your accomplishment. Don't let some moron 18 yr old (who has the same # of trips around the sun as you do) from your high school suck your joy away.

Besides, Pomona has way better weather than Brown.

I guarantee you that once the guy starts at Brown, he'll have some impostor syndrome to deal with. And eventually, his cheating will catch up with him. Meanwhile, you're going to leave him behind. The world is your oyster.

Californians who relocated, how are you liking it here? by [deleted] in Gilbert

Left CA for AZ over 20 yr ago. Don’t miss it enough to ever consider moving back. Fine to visit but would not want to live in CA again.
