Someone just posted a result from Columbia listed as "Other via Other." We might call that undefined...?

I'm wondering when Notre Dame is going to get in on the action.

Any guesses on whether today will show a dearth of results such as we saw yesterday?

You ever think maybe it was you, not us? Maybe we just got tired of doing all the work in this relationship!

I like southerners. I am a southerner!

Local liquor store had a handle of Jack on sale for 29.99 over the weekend. I equal good-to-go.

Because graduate departments are powered by the fears and torments of anxious undergraduates.

Is it possible that today has been so painfully slow because activity over the weekend was uncharacteristically high? Has the philosophy admissions market undergone a self-correction?

I think they're toying with us.

Seriously. What is going on out there in admissions world today? The silence is deafening.

Well that sounds like its bound to be A LOT of fun. One of my professors met him just a couple of months ago after he gave the plenary session for the EPS conference. Said he was a very nice, very funny fellow. I'd love to come to Purdue. I'm quite an admirer of Michael Bergmann's work.

Congrats indeed.

I'm not sure how much more silence I can bear...

If I get shut out I'll probably listen to "Fix You" by Coldplay on repeat for 48 hours straight.

I thought about applying to the Committee on Social Thought at one point... if only to study with Pippin and Marion.

Is your first choice Chicago Philosophy or the Committee on Social Thought?

Another acceptance in from Michigan and one from Chicago. Congratulations!

I actually didn't mention anyone specifically in my application. I opted, rather, to appeal to ND's overall fit with respect to my research interests as a Christian philosopher looking to do philosophy from within a Christian framework. Needless to say, there are countless people with whom I would be thrilled to study under at ND on the off chance that I'm admitted. I'd love to sit and chat with Gary Gutting... even though he doesn't really work in my area.

Congrats! I grew up in Riverside CA. Traffic and smog...

That sucks. Thanks for posting this. I'll know now to view packages from Loyola with a healthy skepticism. Sorry this happened.

Very cool. My writing sample was on the relationship between the realism/anti-realism debate and philosophical naturalism. Sounds like we share quite a bit in common.

So far there's been action on 4 of my schools (Loyola, Baylor, Kentucky, South Carolina) and I've yet to hear anything. I am going mildly insane.

Congrats to the Loyola Chicago acceptance! Anyone out there to claim this one?

Ha! I enjoyed this comment.

Congrats to the Michigan acceptance!
