ThousandsHardships

Got into the food science PhD program at UC Davis as their top choice candidate. My supervisor was like, "Your grades are decent, you're an in-state student, and you're a girl. Of course they accepted you." Umm...thanks? I'd like to think that they reviewed my application in more detail than that and based their decision on my accomplishments rather than my location and gender.

Really? I haven't heard of anyone who can confuse sociology with psychology...
