    I also got my rejection for the PhD :-(

    :( Got several journal, conference, book publications, 6 years of RA experience, 5 years as a high school teacher... Guess my low GRE scores really hurt my applications.

    Berkeley is my dream school... and the dream ended with a generic rejection letter. Now it's only NYU and UCLA left - just hoping that there will at least be one acceptance out of my five applications this year.

    But anyhow, if I end up receiving nothing, I will try again with a stronger application next year!!!!!!

    Hi! I've been lurking forever but keeping up with the day to day on the forums...but I can't stay on the sidelines anymore. 

    I was just admitted to UT Austin for their PhD in Education Policy and Planning. I haven't heard anything from UPenn, Vandy, and Harvard, which I assume means no. (All those applications are still in the submitted stage, which is weird, but whatever). My last school I am waiting on is University of California, Irvine, and it's still "under review'...

    Looks like I'm a new Longhorn!

    Congratulations on your UT Austin offer! I thought Harvard has released their offers and rejections already? Many of us have heard back from HGSE.

  3. One year a long time ago, there were penguins who didn't wear hats when swimming. This made their mothers livid. "Unacceptable!"  Frightened, they screamed, "Bears!" Nobody seemed convinced so instead of going swimming they tried juggling. Their mothers tried everything they thought would teach her a skill. However, she couldn't even make oatmeal without disastrous results. So, the penguins gathered money (obviously) trying to purchase a bear.  Towering over them, a grizzly beast danced, devouring all bears with such ferocity that even God enjoyed it. Afterwards, God congratulated the penguins and applauded them.  "You did it!" 


    Suddenly, the grizzly beast started dancing vigorously.  There was an acromantula nearby. It challenged the preconception that magical mushrooms were magical.  Sparkling, the magical mushrooms were spreading throughout town. Nobody with pyromania thought grilled cheese would spontaneously erupt into nine identical squirrels! Nevertheless, the penguins elucidated the benefits of sparkling water from Iceland. Suddenly, Iceland exclaimed, "Enough!!! No more penguins. Kill all of the arcades on Monday because King Arthur suffered from sphenisciphobia." Tragically, everyone forgot lasers cure bug madness, meaning none of them stripped the violet beast of his powerful jaw bones. So while some arms spouted Kool-aid, others chopped nuts. This phenomenon halted commerce.  Together twenty-five yellow dragons danced sporadically inebriating all anger gods, while academics drank champagne profusely.


    Who were they? Snotty undergrads eating free Tetrahydrocannabinol Chlorate. Homicidal kittens emerged from congressional hearings purring rhythmic improvised melodies, infuriating the associate professors who stripped them intermittently of all credentials. The incredulous kittens meowed like dragons farts. Except Bruno, who mewed like tinkling bells. Understandably, one chicken farted. Then, surreptitiously, two giraffes killed the conspicuous dragon. Audaciously, someone belched "RAWR!"  Startled, four punks flew down from the Appalachian, a bit wide-eyed, and jumped into a brobdingnagian beam of protons
