My husband is applying for phd programs for next fall, and I’m researching the cost of each school. I can’t find any info about the cost of grad housing at U of Chicago. Does anybody have experience with it or heard about how much it is? Any help would be great, thanks!
More first-year questions, yay!
I’m hoping someone in here knows: do I have to contact Carleton’s housing department or whatever to find out who my roomate is or are they supposed to contact me? I got the residence package in the mail and basically all it said was I’m in a traditional double room in [...]
Hey,
I’m heading into my last semester at Berkeley and I’m loaded up with my honors thesis and 2 really hard classes. That brings me to 12 credits. Anyone have suggestions for a fun, creative, 1 or 2 credit class? I’m shooting for as little outside work as possible (or, at least, very little reading and [...]

Anyone else? I’m sitting here and supposed to be writing an essay due tomorrow. But this is my break time (I have tendinitis in both wrists, my fingers are now numb again). Taking classes during the summertime is BRUTAL – I have a final exam in a week. Blech.
Anyone who is on campus late – [...]
Just curious, does anyone know anything about the final schedule for volunteering to stuff UTSU orientation kits? Or do we just come for all the times we signed up for? I couldn’t make it to the BBQ yesterday, so I’m not sure if anything important was said there.
Edit: Does anyone also know when the marks for Y summer courses will [...]
