(2/3) One really good options is holistic admissions (as opposed to stricter point-based or cutoff-based systems) like this one at (also true for their admissions) graduateschool.vt.edu/admissio

how do you write "discussion boards are steaming hot dog shit invented by the most boring person in the world" respectfully for a student opinion survey?

With so much conversation about fake imagery at present, it seems the right time to talk to @DeakinArtsEd students about ethical representation and the historical record.

Great to be able to introduce them to Frank Hurley via @statelibrarynsw.

What historical records do you use?

That's my degree path now officially changed to BA (Hons) Arts and Humanities (Creative Writing). I did have (... and English Language) in the name but decided to drop that to focus on the side of things. πŸ™‚

Ah the great dilemma: do I get the house chores done or work on my homework? πŸ€” Someday soon, I'll be able to vacuum the carpet without guilt about neglecting my studies. πŸ˜‚

πŸ”₯"International students are welcome to apply"πŸ”₯

I cannot stress how fundamental undergrad research opportunities like this were for me. There are far too few open to international students, so jump at this one if you can or know somebody who might!

Pay is 3000 USD/month for a 9-week program in Seattle, visa available!

Breaks down calculus to its simplest form via the performing arts.

This is one of my all time favs.
It's also one of the funniest
zombie movies ever made.

Enjoy!
