My wife and I are child free, and 34 years old, and will remain that way. We have no interest in children, which is a good thing because school loans, traveling and careers do not mesh well with rearing offspring. It is annoying when people bother you about having kids all the time.

My wife and I also do not want kids, so this is not an issue for us. I think every person is different, some people could handle having kids during grad school, and others may not.

I lived in Macomb for 3 years with my wife for undergrad. I thought it was very safe - we lived a couple blocks from campus in the Turnberry Village Apartments, within walking distance. Let me know any specific questions you have. Very small town, 20,000 including dorms. Cost of living is average, our apts were nice, like 735 for a 2 bed 2 bath. Mostly fast food restaurants and ma and pa restaurants. They do have a BWW. Weather is snowy in the winter and pretty hot in the summer - like 80-90's. Fall snd spring are nice 50-70.

Yes they are allowed if they are 150 cc or larger in certain states, this was Illinois. We sold it because we were moving to two different states to go to separate grad schools. Yes, the cheap Chinese ones are not made well. Regarding the classification, yes in Illinois it went by engine size, so hers was technically a motorcycle for licensing purposes.

I bought my wife one of the bulkier cheap chinese brands (but still cheap plastic), a new 150 cc for 1, 000 in the Chicago area in 2009. She went on the highway with me when I rode my motorcycle. It got up to about 60-65 mph - it was a little shaky at 65 (vibration).

I grade them as they come in, they are on blackboard as .doc files, so I grade them with in-text comments. I try to get them back to the students as soon as possible. They take forever to grade, even though they are only 2 page essays, because of the horrible grammar. It is an intro online class with 70 students, and I am the sole instructor.

Absolutely. With facetime and all that these days, I don't really feel too far away. Also, summers, winter break, and spring break I will be in Fargo with her. I like being older in grad school it is interesting when you are the same age or older than your professors.(Sorry for typos on my original post, I hate autocorrect on my phone).

I am 33 and I started my MA this semester. I have been married since 2010 (together since 2006), but we live apart for grad school. My wife Attends NDSU in Fargo, ND for her MA, and I attend UNL in Lincoln, NE. It is hard living apart (she has the cat, and I have the dog), but as non-traditional studenst I feel like we handle the rest of it better because we have life experiance, unlike the kids that come right out of undergrad at 22. We do look young, so it helps when relating to others in the program that are in their mid-20's. Any questions about applying, GRE, etc - just ask.

Everyone is different, and well as has different time considerations (pet, family, child, husband etc), but it is healthy to take time for yourself. You can't run on empty, so to speak. It is not good to study when you are really tired, because it is less likely you will retain the information, than if you were alert.

Wasn't talking to you.

Pears, I just wanted to tell you I absolutely love the grumpy cat icon.

Usually you have to withdraw by the withdrawal date (in my school it is March 31st) in order to get a W on your transcript, instead of whatever grade you have/will have otherwise. Late April is pretty late, and I think you will get the grades and not a W. I would just explained being overwhelmed with outside obligations on your SOP when you start applying to grad school in a couple years. I am sure many other people have some of the same type of issues regarding withdrawing.

I was in one of my graduate certificate classes where we bring our laptops. I have my email open all the time, it popped up, I read it a couple times to make sure it was real. It was hard cause I couldn't yell. I just emailed people.

Heading to University of Nebraska - Lincoln for Biological Anthropology MA with a concentration in Skeletal/Forensics...

Anyone starting at UNL this fall?

Here is a pic of Toby, I forgot to add it...

I have a dog named Toby, since 2003, before I met my wife. She is like a daughter to me and will be with me throughout grad school.

I'm 33 and married, and starting an MA program this fall. I started my B.A. in 2008 at 28 and finished in 2012 at 32 years old. My wife is also 33, and is starting her M.A. this fall as well, although at a different school in a different state.

It took me 5 years including all but one summer 2008-2012. I went to a community college my 1st 2 years. I received 2 associates degrees, an AAS in Criminal Justice, and a AA trasfer. I studied abroad in London my first summer of 2008, and the 2nd summer of 2009 I took 3 classes. In the summer of 2010 after I graduated I did a summer study class for forensic anthropology at the University of Tennessee Knoxville through my community college. I was 12-16 credit hours through the regular semesters. When I started my undergrad it was the fall of 2010. I was signed up for Forensic Chemisty, I changed to Law Enforcement the next semester, and changed to Anthropology the next. I realized my passion was Forensic Anthropology. That put me a little behind changing majors twice. I also double minored in Zoology and Law Enforcement on top of my Anthropology major. I graduated in fall of 2012 with a 3.99 gpa at my university. I was full time my whole undergraduate career, because I started at 28 I wanted to get it done ASAP so I didn't feel behind. I did an archeology dig/field school in the summer of 2012 as well. I had a couple credits from when I tried to go to school after high school, but I basically started fresh at 28 when I started in 2008, I am now 33 starting my masters. I graduated community college with 84 credits of all A's and a B, and my university with all A's and an A-. School is easier as a mature, wise person with real life experiences.

I am going to UNL in Lincoln NE, and my wife is going to NDSU in Fargo ND. I will go to Fargo and stay with her for spring break, winter break, and summers to work on my thesis and spend time with her. Basically I will see her 140 days out of 365 days a year. We see this as an investment into our future and to be able to do the careers we are passionate about. We think it is work it. We are 33 and have been together since 2006, and married since 2010. We have lived together since 2006 as well. Everyone is different I guess, we like traveling and college, and we do not want kids, so it works for us.

I am finding it hard to rent sight unseen for Lincoln NE this fall 2013. I am a non-traditional, 33year old married student, with a dog. My wife will be attending grad school out of state in Fargo ND though, so it will be just me and the dog. I don't want to be near loud partying undergraduates, but i don't want to be really far from the school either. Does anyone reside there now? Could you give me a heads up for neighborhoods to avoid and ones that are good for quiet? I am told to avoid North Bottoms because it is a loud. partying undergraduate atmosphere. Any advice would be appriciated. I am looking for 400-600 in rent, and my dog is 45 pounds, and a shepard mix.

I was accepted at UNL as well, but for Biological Anthropology. I don't see many UNL people on this forum.
