Going to Ohio University.

They offered to waive my tuition and got me a job for $9,750 for three quarters writing newsletters for the Department of Osteopathic Medicine Research.

So yeah, go Bobcats:

PM me, I'll gladly swap numbers.

Also, the place I'm looking at living is a town house in a little town called "The Plains," Ohio.

I imagine you're going to hate Ohio after living in Florida all your life, but congratulations on the amazing opportunity.

Aww, I looked up where Ohio University is and its on the eastern half of Ohio.  If it was closer to Cincinnati I would have visited next year.

Anyways, congrats on them waiving tuition and getting paid.

God, you are easy. Don't you feel guilty in not 'buying' your education like your peers. And a 'indentured servant ' job to boot in the deal. Good to go....I guess.

Life is a series of breaks, some bad, some good, it is the guilt you will feel later when you have to explain your methods to someone.

Are you serious OS?

A scholarship =/= socialism.

A job because he's proven himself to be a good writer =/= slavery.



What I'm trying to say is this; How in all hells would he feel guilty because he worked his ass off in order to be a desired grad student for four years, and is now being rewarded for it?

Don't worry. I thought it was funny. It was way too over-the-top to be something you would say legit. Wink Now, if it was FE...

But you are right. All it took was someone flashing the cash for me to really make a decision.

That and the fact that everyone in the program has been over-the-top friendly and outreaching to me.

I've decided to become a Bengals fan, by the way.
