^ How awesome is that! The world needs more random acts of kindness like that.

Donald Trump is such an idiot. Dr. Ben Carson is too.

One of my FB friends works in a university admissions office. She fielded an interesting call today from an incoming grad student ...
... who is NOT an incoming student. She was accepted, sent in her deposit, but never sent in the paperwork to indicate she planned to matriculate. Her scholarship money has been allocated elsewhere. The fact that she hadn't received any mailings from the school since April apparently didn't register with her.
Orientation starts this Friday. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when the director of admissions informs her that she is going to be taking a surprise gap year.
She's applying as a grad student, which indicates that some university, somewhere, granted her a bachelor's degree.
I weep for the future.

The spam is annoying.
Something else that is annoying is this entitlement mentality I'm seeing with PNMs. Between reading the post in the one thread where a "grade risk" was too good for the only two chapters that wanted her--leading her to drop out of recruitment to watching other ladies burst into tears when they received their bids at Bid Day to what was perceived as "less desirable" chapters when so many women were cut for various reasons (including low grades), I am over this poor is me because I didn't get the top sorority attitude. If I ever have a daughter, I'm going to make sure she recognizes how lucky she would be to go Greek at all. It's a privilege and not a right.
There are people who don't make it all the way through sorority recruitment, even if they did have an open mind. There are people who don't have the grades. There are other people who do not have the money to go Greek. There was even a story recently about students who are homeless on college campuses. Think about that next time you are "too good" for that less desirable chapter or choose not to attend class. There are people who are sleeping in their cars to save money for textbooks and tuition on different college campuses nationwide. I hope this pattern does not continue.

Arrrgh!!! I hate when someone says they will do something for you and then they drop the ball. If you're not going to do it just tell me and I'll find another way to do it myself.

I am going to have a glass of wine and relax.
Hopefully the spam will go away.
