  1. Thanks for the reply. So I am an American citizen and looking for a job either in the states or in Canada. Top programs in Canada are unique in that many of their professors are American trained sociologists. There connections are in the states versus in Canada. What you essentially have is a Canadian university teaching American sociology.
  2. Hello All, What are people's perception of the University of British Columbia? Is it a good program? Is it respected amongst sociologists? Any opinions on this program and where it falls in the top 10, 20, 30 etc? I applied there and think I have a great chance of being accepted. I just wanted to know the job prospects for after obtaining a PhD there as opposed to a top 20 school like the University of Washington or a top 10 school like UCLA.
  3. thanks for this, sciencegirl!
  4. This an informative and supportive thread! Thank you DorindaAfterThyrsis and katiemk1230, your advice is helping me form my decision for graduate school too! Way to be supportive of other discussion members!
  5. Woowww the Berkeley Rejection Bomb was felt nationwide... :/
  6. Here to claim the UCLA post super stoked and excited!
  7. Any news on the Berkeley front? Anyone know what's going on with them? Thanks!
  8. You are right Supernovasky. That rejection bomb is causing heartache across the globe lol
  9. This video might help you calm down a little bit! It's a really good cover of California Girls by Bruno Mars.
  10. I say go ahead to get involved. You never know unless you give it a try!
  11. I feel your pain. I had to break up recently with my lover because graduate school was looming over our relationship. She just couldn't get over the uncertainty of the future and it took away from the quality of our relationship and the way she felt about me. It was really difficult and a part of me wanted to leave academia behind and just be in love. When she broke up with me I was just telling myself "I don't want this life (in academia), I don't know what I'm doing here." In my opinion academia makes the break up even more desolate because as researcher, we spend the majority of our time, alone, doing research. It's such a lonely career. Anyways, I'll stop rambling :/
  12. Yeah.... Don't worry I'm still pending too. The wait is tough. And I just got dumped by my girlfriend too.... Woo hoo, good times!
  13. Congrats on being accepted to Berkeley. Berkeley is definitely my dream school and I'm hoping a professor is currently writing me a congratulatory email. One can only hope!
