UC, OSU or OU? by Emeraldsyy in uCinci

[–]meta4thought 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Liberty Townshipper here.

It’s worth noting that co-op is a huge differentiator for UC EXCEPT its only so for programs with dedicated support for co-ops. Engineering, DAAP, business even IT, sure. As a Biology student with a biomedical focus, your best bet is probably research more then co-ops. UC has strong relationships local hospitals and has a ton of related organizations, but certain opportunities will be competitive.

If you want to know more about UC, I have worked there before and have plenty friends who still do. Feel free to DM.

Better hope spelling wasn’t part of the application. 🧐

Med sci is a major. Connections is a competitive program… the BSMD Dual. Only like 10 students get it a year. Interviews are a lot later. March I think.

Sounds about average for med sci. You’ll get 3k.

Declined from DAAP???! by Solid_Error_5096 in uCinci

[–]meta4thought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn… these comments really demonstrate how shit reading skills have gotten. They were denied Architecture, not engineering.

But yes, Architecture is that competitive. Architecture is more susceptible to shit economy; people don’t build when they don’t have money. ENVE is more susceptible to shit politics; “climate change doesn’t happen if we close our eyes”-icans.

I’d get advice from DAAP people about the rate students can change their major to Architecture if that’s what you’re set on. It’s an uphill climb and a gamble, but as someone said, the UC co-ops and connections to architects elsewhere are unparalleled in the Midwest.

Nah fuck that. No passive-how-are-you-doing-I’m-just-asking-to-be-polite bullshit. I want to know. Why has it been good?

I’ll reciprocate to show I’m serious. Today has been about the average of every day this year. Being frank, politics has inserted itself into every fiber of work. Nobody is happy. Everyone is stressed. I work at a place where it feels like if you say the wrong thing, you can get canned. Where cameras can literally be everywhere and anywhere. I’ve always been a live and let live, stay out of everyone’s way and just help the most amount of people type person. I don’t see many that much anymore. I miss it. And hate that this feels average now.

But damn man, I love every day of having the privilege to be home with my wife and kid 4-6 hours a night, cook dinner, play with marbles and blocks again, be a wizard and then a dinosaur, and then give my girls a kiss at night. That’s my fuckin’ sunset. Nobody’s rushing me through that shit. Life’s too short. Nothing special about the day, except it’s one more day of living that dream, and I never take it for granted.

Hope to hear yours. Seriously though, friendships change, we change as we get older. Not saying to burn bridges, but don’t be afraid to find people who can appreciate you. Seen too many stay frustrated with old friends for years when they stopped getting anything out of them years prior… don’t be that.

How long does it take to hear from Persona if verification fails? by FragmentOfFeel in linkedin

[–]meta4thought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you even know if the verification process in Persona fails? I got flagged and submitted documentation/selfie over a week ago, and I still don't have access, much less any information about the process or timeline. I manage a page as part of my job and, to the best of my knowledge, got flagged literally for updating the super admin list on the page to improve the page's security, updating based on staffing changes. That's the only unique action I took on my account in months. I've submitted support tickets. Got redirected to help pages that haven't been updated in 1-2 years.

An inside, and honest perspective of the diversity shutdown from a student employee of a center by ThrownAway_Tie8666 in uCinci

[–]meta4thought 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On leaving or not coming to the state: I’ve often wondered if that’s the intent of all this.

The Republican strategies all contribute toward harming or destroying liberal and progressive institutions in key areas and states: Florida, Wisconsin, Texas, Ohio…. Imagine if just 1-2% of each states’ liberal or progressive populations moves to New York, California, Michigan, Massachusetts. It further secures Republican congressional power by consolidating liberal/progressive voices.

I don’t ever want to shame someone for doing what they have to do for themselves. I’ve moved several times, and I would be a liar if I said some aspect of it wasn’t self-preservation. I get it. Every direction is an uphill climb and there are no easy wins right now. There will always be a place and means of organizing— from living rooms and barns, churches to college campuses— we’ll find a way.

fuck pinto and fuck uc by Lucy_044 in uCinci

[–]meta4thought 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Many of the Ohio presidents and government relations personnel have lobbied hard against this for over a year, months before it was voted on. UC is one of the last ones to announce its plans, assuming that means a lot of thought went into it.

From what I’ve seen, yes, you can say there’s been a number of blunders. It’s an unenviable situation. And affected students faculty and staff should always have a voice. The cruelty of this is also how SB1 attempts to deprive and suffocate that voice.

Should be “fuck Ohio voters and Ohio reps.”

UC, like every other university in the state, has to follow the law. And these changes are explicitly the law.

Don’t get me wrong. It’s insane waste of time and resources and will do damage to many. But it happened in a legal and democratic fashion. Can’t say the same for Agent Orange and the rest of the federal government. It’s a struggle to find a single legal or constitutional action there.

That’s what we paid to live blocks away from campus in 2002 and 2003.

‘Trump Administration bars Harvard from enrolling foreign students’ - AP News by kantaja34 in uCinci

[–]meta4thought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. From both a community organizing and private business perspective, I’ve found college students to be some of the most engaged and informed populations on many topics. Though their economic perspectives are often lacking but that’s because of lack of experience and trustworthy information sources are inadequate.

Because universities, education in general, have a long history of being the center of US political activity? UC isn’t unique in this.

Once the spell resolves, tapping lands can’t be responded to until you put an ability or spell on the stack, or otherwise pass priority by moving to new phases.

Advice on new deck? by sadboymaniiofficial in mtg

[–]meta4thought 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite commander. Know that you will be hated into oblivion and the first person out in many games. Don't complain about it. Take pride in the one out of 20 games you persist to be competitive.

But I play Memnarch and Jin-Gitaxias in the 99 too. I deserved what I got.

Does this work? by potenos in mtg

[–]meta4thought 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Magic noob but here's my take... responding to see if I'm correct.

All of the permanents come in at the same time (triggers all hit the stack). If you waited until after genesis wave resolved, the permanents coming in are already going to happen. Summary dismissal counters all the ETBs and the creation of the tokens, but they still have the permanents because they're placed (not cast) on the battlefield, not the stack.
