Yes. Call from the DGS. Unfortunately I'm going to be at a conference that weekend and don't really know what to do about it. The DGS promised to get back to me to see if we could figure something out. Vanderbilt is my top choice, so hopefully things work out.

Oh wow, would it happen to be ESS, the weekend of March 17th? If so, I'll be at ESS as well! I'm sure things will work out. NC State has their recruitment visit the weekend of March 17th, and they were so accommodating about me visiting the following weekend. They just said the visit would simply be less formal. So, I'm sure Vanderbilt can do something to help! Keep us posted! I hope they get back to you soon!

It's the Education in Ethnography conference at Penn. There are a lot of reasons I can't attend. I'm hoping I can fly in another weekend or have a Skype interview. I hope you hear good things from them today!
krispykreme Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 I can't attend either! I hope it doesn't affect my chances

I've only been on the edge of campus, but it seems like a very beautiful campus! Nashville is also fun! I've only been there for a conference, but it was a great town! Thank you so much! I hope so, too ... I hope and pray I'm on their list!

The fact that you crashes into the wall and got some ice for your head revealed you are a real Pennsylvanian. Awful awful weather... This year is good enough though, no reason to complain.

It's not nearly as cold this year, for which I'm thankful.

Whoops, my mistake - I searched "Penn Sociology" and a couple of Penn States popped up in the middle. Looks like there are 3 admits. Edited February 9, 2016 by Shay825

Didn't mean to sound like a douche in the last post, was just *hoping* I was right and it wasn't me searching the wrong term lol! Edited February 9, 2016 by mm3733

I guess soon I will feel Pennsylvania is a place I wish to leave for so long, but actually when I leave, I will miss quite a lot of things there. ***hand you your favorite drink****
