They rejected you by e-mail???? Holy crap--that's lame.
I did get in, after Jared and I had told both of our parents we were moving to Indiana. I had basically ruled them out, but I got an e-mail yesterday. 5 years, tuition + annual stipend, and the department nominated me for a supplemental university-wide fellowship. I'm still in shock. I go up for a visit in a couple of weeks and I'm scared out of my mind that they're gonna realize they made a mistake.
Yesssss! The only question is what to wear for said bull riding adventure.
And you have to come visit, because at the moment Jared and I (me especially) are trying to make you jealous by looking at several houses, all built between 1900 and 1930. Yay for historic, affordable neighborhoods close to school!
i'm still waiting to hear from university of toronto. my application was listed as "under review" as of last friday. i've heard nothing at all from u of chicago.
eee i'm excited for you. what specifically are you going to do there?
They have one of the best programs in the history of medicine, so I'll be focusing on medicine within the scope of modern Germany. Just the thought of starting on my Ph.D. so soon is awesome yet utterly terrifying...
I just heard from Vanderbilt two days ago, so I'm sure you'll be hearing from toronto and chicago pretty soon--i look foward to congratulating you!
that sounds pretty awesome. i just got through doing readings on the american eugenics movement. in which i learned that german eugenics laws apparently borrowed a lot of language from a piece of legislation passed in the great state of virginia.
this social darwinism capstone is making me distrust and despise science.

I'm definitely in for a trip to Nashville to ride the bull.
