  1. I got accepted into UCI and GaTech for PhDs starting Fall 2016. For UCI, I got accepted into the Informatics department as part of the Donald Bren School of Computer Sciences and for GaTech I was accepted into the Human-Centered Computing program which is prat of the School of Interactive Computing (Its one of the branches in the Computing School). I have PoI's in both places, and am being flown out to GaTech in two weeks to visit with faculty and students on their dime. I am super torn on which school I should attend. First off, I completed by B.S. at UCI, so I had that going for me when I applied. I also already live in SoCal, and so does my partner of six years. But I want to make sure I make the best decision for my Doctorate. I've heard a lot of back and forth between friends and family. I do not want to choose UCI simply because it is more convenient. My partner is planning on attending UCLA for a Masters that takes 2 years. This doesn't bother me so much, since we have agreed that if I take a PhD offer out of state they will follow after their Masters is complete. Having been together for six years, two of which were long-distance before, we are pretty confident we can make it through a possible two more years. My biggest concern is, of course, which is the better school for studying and doing research in my areas of interest? Which are: Social Media, Social Computing, AI and Games research. I do a lot of research in the affects of toxicity with the forward movement in the IoT. What do you think?
