Plisar, I'm shocked!That is hardly a falsifiable theory. To predict Event A (burn city down) will not come after Event B (a big win), Event B must actually have a chance to occur. (i kid!)

adaptations Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Congrats Plisar! I have declined UCLA and Washington.
jackassjim Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 You find my excitement puzzling? Great choice plisar. You could not go wrong with either of your options, but this is quite something...
adaptations Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 After looking at that picture, I think we should all go start a poli. sci. commune in San Diego.

Absolutely true, I will go enjoy the beautiful beaches of San Diego, and try not to get eaten by a shark, and you can become a student in my current hometown. it seems like a fair trade!
jackassjim Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Something tells me I'm getting the short end of the stick here :roll: I do come from the Great White North though, so the Michigan winter doesn't scare me too much. Plus, it can be quite pretty too:
mwash Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 congratulations man! great program. i'm nd but i've always loved that school too

Nope, simply their political science department for me, but I am totally excited nevertheless. What a fabulous program. And btw, IR/PS is absolutely amazing!

Congrats on your acceptance to UCSD! can't wait for the beach! The beach will be nice for sure! I'm so sick of getting snow in April...yuck. But no, I'm getting a Ph.D. in polisci.
adaptations Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Plisar, You really should forgo the PhD for the meantime. Do a masters first - that way you can have the fun of applying again
plisar Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Oh dear god, no. I am never doing this again...well until I hit the job market I suppose. Five year contracts are fabulous.
aria880 Posted April 12, 2009 Posted April 12, 2009 I turned down Illinois and committed to OSU. Go Buckeyes!
