  1. I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some info on military psychology in Canada? I'm curious as to what kinds of psychologists work in the military in Canada, and whether or not the military would assist in paying for graduate education to become a psychologist? I cannot seem to find much information online about this career path in Canada, although the USA forces provides a wealth of information.
  2. Hi all, An odd thing to be posting, but i've been feeling a lot of anxiety about this lately and sort of just wanted to say something to get some feedback. I used to smoke a little weed here and there, but this summer I really got into it way too much. My best friends who I have hung out with for about 10 years really got into smoking dope this summer, and for the first two months I was smoking with them nearly 4-5 days per week. Over the past two months, I have only smoked about 1-2 times per week and I am done for the rest of the summer (and probably the rest of the year since those fiends are headed across the country to go back to university until May.) I am just having really bad anxiety that smoking for these past 4 months is going to hurt my grades this upcoming school year (third year) and because this is such an important year the anxiety is magnified. I am trying to become a psychologist, and although I had the highest grades for any second year student in the faculty of arts during my second year, I just fear this weed smoking will prevent me from achieving that level of success again this year. I know this sounds silly but I'm not an experienced smoker and simply do not know what to expect. I also realize that this is completely my fault, but I've had a tough summer in terms of my relationship with my GF and I guess I've been using weed to self-medicate Has anyone else had similar worries or know if there is cause for alarm? I simply have not smoked enough to have any idea how this is going to turn out for me, but perhaps someone(s) here has been through the ringer themselves/ knows someone else who has?
  3. Hey everyone! I'm sort of looking for some good reading to do, and I thought to get some ideas I would ask what your sociological research area (or interest) is?
  4. What are some emerging fields in sociology that are beginning to spark interest or are simply becoming more studied?
  5. Hi everyone. Ever since I was a very young child, I have absolutely loved learning, reading and discovering the magic of this planet that we live on. In particular, I have always been extremely interested in human beings and how we became the intelligent, rational, civilized species that we are today. For most of my life I never even considered becoming a professor because I really just didn't know what the job entailed and, like a lot of people, when I was growing up I figured one had to be like Einstein or Hawking to become a professor haha:). However, after finishing my second year of university, I'm beginning to think that becoming an academic would be the ideal career for me. I essentially hate doing anything office related, the only "work" I really enjoy is school-related research and taking my courses. I really do not know where to begin though...and this is my problem. My grades after two years of undergraduate are alright (I think). My GPA is, I believe, about 3.75/4.0 and I have good relationships with professors. However, I really do not know what kind of professor I would most enjoy being, but because of my lifelong obsession with understanding human beings and our origins, i'm posting in this thread because perhaps many of you would have advice for me? My real questions are: Would pursuing and undergraduate and graduate degree in Anthropology be wise for someone with my interests? If so, what types of grades do I need? Is a B+ average sufficient, or must one do even better? What kind of research experience do I need? I hope these aren't silly questions, and I hope my aspirations aren't silly. Anyways, any insight would be awesome guys!!!
