Which University are you at?
After the 'how have you done this semester' it seems like many people here are at Uni (or College).

Which Uni are you at, or applying to?

Anyone else at or going to Oxford? I don't know anyone there so it's kinda scary

Well, you apparently aren't at one where they teach you proper English.

No Ivy League here, only Poverty boy university, Wichita State U.
It's actually not a bad school, they have an excellent Political Science department, though their History department leaves quite a bit to be desired.

St. Ambrose University in Davenport, Iowa.

No, I'm not a devout Catholic.


I am graduating in May with a BA in History. I have already applied to several universities for graduate school, for the fall of 2003. A couple in Illinois, one in Wisconsin, and a couple in Indiana.

I thought about graduate school in the South somewhere, but then thoughts of Ku Klux Klan, lynch parties, rednecks, Christian fundamentalism, and homophobia started to overwhelm me.

University College Dublin at the moment (the only college in Western Europe whose soccer team plays in the country's premier division!), although I'm flying to Scotland in February for an interview at Aberdeen Medical School...

Has anyone here or someone they know gone to the University of Aberdeen? Does anyone know what it's like?
