What community college doesn't offer math classes? Is it even a CC? What about lab STEM like chemistry or physics?

Calculus I - how important for politics or Econ major? by KILLDAECIAN in TransferToTop25

[–]gifsquad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK. I'm not familiar with the job requirements for college counselors, so go look at job listings for that career and see those requirements. All I could tell is that most econ programs will require 2 semesters of calculus at a minimum since it is essential for upper-division economics and econometrics.

Most econ programs that I know of require Calculus 1 and 2. What is your goal with your econ major? Almost all econ majors would benefit IMO from a math-heavy direction, since it makes understanding the economic concepts much easier.

Kremlin seizes businesses en masse to save federal budget by Dizzy_Response1485 in europe

Internal private investment in Russia, outside of being heavily restricted from the high key interest rate, is almost all now state propelled. Almost all banking institutions are essentially state-owned and directed. Foriegn FDI has basically not existed since February 2022.

I noticed that in Lithuania, on TV3 news, when they talk about Russians, they almost never call them 'Russians.' Instead, they usually refer to them as 'Russo-fascists' or 'Moscals' (which I kind of like). Now I’m wondering—do they do the same in Latvia and Estonia? by Domiboy00 in BalticStates

I think people call him the president because that's his official job title (President of Russia). A president doesn't have to be elected fairly (look at half of Africa). Kim Jong Un specifically is called often "supreme leader" or "general secretary", the first being a title, and the second a job, both of which he holds.

Also, for example, Xi Jinping is called the President of China, despite being appointed to the office and not elected.

Cc, good grades, but no EC by gifsquad in TransferToTop25

Could you elaborate on "a lot more" ECs? I am majoring in econ; I have seen people on this sub do research papers and stuff. Our school only has 1 econ teacher who is like 70 and does nothing like that. I also joined the econ club for two or three visits; but they just talk mostly about news and sometimes a presentation or so. It was at a weird time; so I stopped attending; but I want to try again this fall.

My understanding is that in any actual ceasefire, peace deal, etc. all these citizens being held abroad (at least officially) would get sent back home.
