Where are you all planning on staying?

I will be in DC for most of the summer doing an internship with a non profit organization. I also plan to read the autobiography of the person my graduate fellowship is named after.

Please let me know if you accept. I'm from Georgia and have gone to school in SC so I too will need help getting around as well.

I'm curious about the religious experience among gay, black men. I am curious as to how their lived experiences problematize christian theology and other religious ideologies. Also, I'm curious as to how the church as a social institution can facilitate positive and negative effects on black, gay men. My current undergraduate research in studying how gay, young black men interprete scripture and how that interpretation influences their sexual orientation.

I thought it would be good to connect with other people going to Boston Univeristy in the fall of 2015. I'll be in the School of Theology.

I vote Columbia for basically the reasons everyone else said.

I got accepted into VDS with 75% tuition.

Will be 23 in the fall

It's Monday everyone. My new favorite day of the week.

Oh wow. I'll be checking my email every minute of that hour.

Where did you hear that from?

So the snow storms in areas where I am applying for grad school has caused schools to close. This further delays the admissions process. That is all.

It should be illegal for schools that you have applied to to email you crap that don't have ANYTHING to do with admissions. EVERYTIME I see the schools in my inbox I get happy and than realize it's a pointless email.

I think is this first time in my life I have actually looked forward to Mondays.

I would like to preface this by saying I am a first generation college student, so the whole grad school thing is a bit new to most people in my family. (I love them immensely and know that they ultimately mean well) Aunt: What are you planning to do after you graduate? Me: I plan on going to school for a masters. Aunt: So wait, you are going back to school? Me: Pretty much! Aunt: If you are going BACK to school, what's the point of graduating from the one you are at? Me: "......" {lost for words}
