thanks grad cafe, I am somewhat consoled!

Are our departments lying to us about not knowing!? Today, in the context of a discussion about rejection in a professionalization seminar, our director of graduate studies made eye contact with me while saying 'if you don't get a SSHRC, just keep on trying! Keep on trying!' When I chased her out of the room later she insisted that she has not received any information and will not know before me. (Though I know that last year my friend found out from the department secretary.) Does she know I didn't get one but is sticking to some confidentiality rule, or was it a cruel coincidence!?
