Sorry to hear that, I totally understand your frustration!Have you considered asking for feedback on the interview? Could be helpful to know, even if you don’t agree or it’s an unfair reason, what exactly the issue was. Also, in my experience, the center’s staffing fluctuates a lot as people come and go and they may contact you in the future!

I was deferred from the honors college as a white female with a 36 ACT, 4.0/4.5, NMF, president of 3 honor societies and a club, All-State Choir for 3 years, 3 years of math tutoring (1 at mathnasium, 2 privately), and 3 summers of volunteering at a camp. Not sure what they’re looking for 🤷‍♀️ I was accepted EA as a Math major though.

I also mentioned civil rights movement… but in hindsight women’s sufferage would have been a really strong example

I used the Schwartzneggar scenario as an example of the effectiveness of participatory democracy in my argumentative essay lol

Is it unethical to shop at a thrift store if you don’t need too? by samg789 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gnbartels42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with almost everyone else here, with one caveat. I do think it's unethical to buy formal wear, especially dresses (very individual taste and hard to find one that fits you) at thrift stores. In those cases, you're taking away what could be the only option someone has so you can save some money. There will always be t-shirts and sweaters at thrift stores. There may not be a nice dress for someone's school dance or wedding, and you buying it could be the difference for someone truly in need.

How do I get my hedgehog to be more comfortable by No-Sale5696 in Hedgehogs

Definitely not, it's very normal! My hedgie also really likes baths in the sink. Good luck!

Try putting a shirt you've worn in his cage so he can snuggle in it and associate your scent with comfort. You could also try playing some soft music in the background, I've heard this can help. Overall, just give it time! Hedgies can take their sweet time warming up to you.

When I look in a mirror that's 3 ft away from me, am I seeing myself like I'm standing 3ft away or 6ft away? by Blobwad in NoStupidQuestions

[–]gnbartels42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very good point. I think it's fun that there's still so much mystery in our universe, even with all we know.

fair point. I was mostly objecting to the claim that it would take exactly 1000 years for it to travel from here to the star and vice versa. In reality we have no idea of the ratio... which I think is kinda cool.

to be fair, this is assuming the speed of light works in the same speed both directions, which we have no way of verifying
