please may i have help making a school list

[warm pivot]

omg the girl who got rejected from ucla forgot ur name but i am coming so we can twin xx

its not on the common app tho 😦

omg yes

[tropic grove]

@warm pivot how do you want to change your list in response to the shooting

i know that athens is quite close to where this happened, but i would still apply to uga

[warm pivot]

i guess im looking at states with stricter gun control

lowkey not sure how i feel ab applying to the us at all now

[tropic grove]

gun control doesn’t correlate too well with gun violence though

gun violence per capita is probably the best metric to go by if it’s a big concern, but you’d want to look locally at each college town because violence can differ drastically between different areas within a state

[warm pivot]

ah fairs

it seems to happen far less in the north than the south from my limited research

[tropic grove]

correct, for a wide variety of factors

[warm pivot]

so do u think i should look at schools that are in the north?

idrk where i should apply tbh

[tropic grove]

yeah

you’re looking at large public schools with big sports/spirit right?

[warm pivot]

more like schools with a variety of classes

[tropic grove]

you’ll find that at most schools here but i think the sheer amount of people at large schools would help with the variety

i’d look into members of the big 10 conference, they’re all big sports schools but also great at academics too

think like OSU, UW madison, UMN, UMich, etc

[warm pivot]

oh yess i really like osu!!!

do you think i should apply to nyu or is it too competitive

i think its public as well so its probs expensive

[tropic grove]

nyu is private

[warm pivot]

oh nvm then

i loveee tulane

i liked umiami but i dont like the schools beliefs

why is applying so hard

[tropic grove]

wait wdym by the schools beliefs

[tropic grove]

[warm pivot]

they support israel

[tropic grove]

new orleans is one of the most dangerous cities in america

[warm pivot]

oh x

is that why blanche hated it

[tropic grove]

my brother went to school 2 blocks away from tulane

[warm pivot]

maybe tulane is not the one for me

[tropic grove]

while the school itself is in an ok area, the city as a whole is dangerous

he had his bike stolen twice

[warm pivot]

okay im really scared i shouldnt

once in year 9 someone stole 5 pounds from me and i still get scared walking through that area now

[tropic grove]

this will be the case for most schools here, although some are more vocal than others

[warm pivot]

uh oh

i think for me it was bc they're a school who advocates free speech but made a professor apologising for wearing a palestine sash which is so stupid to me

i dont want to go to a school where ver professors cant express their beliefs

like i want to learn from someone who is saying what they truly think not what everyone else tells them to think

[tropic grove]

school administration doesn’t reflect what the student body thinks as recent events have shown

[tropic grove]

oop i never heard of this

[warm pivot]

it on their ig! thats how i saw it

also their colours ugly af orange is not the new black orange is the same ugly

[tropic grove]

real af all orange schools suck

garnet is the way to go

apply to fsu x

[warm pivot]

thats fair but i dont want to spend like 100k on a school that'll contribute to the on going genocide and apartheid

[warm pivot]

no like uva i loved but baddieeee why r u orange bc this is ugly as hell

like i wont be repping the school anywhere if ur orange

[warm pivot]

if it was on the beach i would in a heartbeat

[tropic grove]

we’re close enough

[warm pivot]

idk how to drive tho

and i promise u i would be rlly bad at it

[tropic grove]

everyone is!

the 6 people in my suite mates dorm at 2 am this morning were trying to figure out who was the least drunk so they could drive the rest to mcdonald’s

[warm pivot]

i went go karting when i was 13 and i kept bumping into the tires in the middle and the guy got so mad at me

[warm pivot]

hahaha id just uber at that point

[tropic grove]

i think they decided to walk in the end

[warm pivot]

how long is the walk

[tropic grove]

like 10 mins

if you’re drunk maybe 20

[warm pivot]

okay why r they driving at that point

[tropic grove]

they’re not the brightest especially when drunk

[warm pivot]

u have me craving mcdonalds chicken nuggets
