Far be it from me to ever encourage anyone to forgo getting an education, as it is probably one of the most worthwhile things a human being could ever do. That being said there are times in life when “dropping out” or dropping a course or quitting a particular program is the right call. For example in my own academic career ...

Today I decided to try something new, taking the train and bus to work. I’ve never really done it before but thought “hey, if I can work on the train at least that’s a productive use of my transit time as opposed to simply sitting in traffic focusing on driving all the way home".

Today I briefly spoke with a woman who works in my building whose department is being closed sometime this year. Everyone at the company is either moving to another department within the company or they are going to be laid off. The deciding factor on whether or not these people keep their jobs? Diversity of skill. If they ...

Today I checked my Bruin email and received my first grade report; so far it’s 100% which is encouraging. I was sweating that 1st paper because frankly, I didn’t do the assignment in the correct format. For that matter I turned in week 2’s assignment without a title page or abstract which is wrong I found out ...

In Texas we have a Parole Board who are responsible to reviewing criminal cases of convicted felons to see if they are eligible for supervised early release, running the parole agency, etc. Recently our “illustrious” governor (note the sarcasm please) decided that a person most qualified to sit on this board would be Shanda ...
