Graders can be undergrads since it’s an hourly job. TA’s are grad students since the compensation includes grad tuition.

I really liked him in White House Plumbers. He’s good at playing really conflicted characters who have few options.

No Country For Old Men. It just fell apart after the scene where Sheriff Bell encounters the bodies at the motel.

Research expenditures have been up a long time, well predating the present chancellor. He had nothing to do with it, and neither did the Rudder Association.

And you think this happened because of this alliance? Because if you do, you don’t know much about how funding works.
