I didn’t get the 2nd one from vikes so maybe it’s for you or he dropped me from the list.

SWEET!!!!!!
Playing around with this like it's a real option just to screw around.
The core courses in the fall all require SCM 501 as a prereq, but they aren't offering that in the fall.

Let's say I was really looking at this. How am I expected to start if the key entry class isn't offered? Sure, instructor permission might happen, but why not offer the basic course when you're advertising a new program?
 
Just found out my last remaining Grandmother died this morning. It's really a blessing though. She was 98 years old, and suffering badly from dementia. I really hope Dad is doing okay. :(

Flying Thursday night to Alabama for the funeral, which is Friday. Please God, let my extended family be good-- this will be my first (post-transition) time seeing many of them.

Don't tell Vikes how to do his job!

Sorry for your loss. Just remember Harimad, as long as you can accept yourself, to hell with what anyone else thinks.

So on Sunday some idiot dentist from Sioux Falls stopped at DJ's Dugout in Omaha for 3 hours with his dog in a kennel in the back of his SUV. Needless to say things didn't turn out too well for the dog. Somehow he didn't get cited for it. His excuse was he left the AC on. I don't believe for one second that he sat in a bar for 3 hours with his vehicle idling in 95 heat.

Thank you! I honestly have no problem with accepting myself. And I personally think I look pretty damn good. Early on in my transition, I'd get strange looks from folks. I honestly can say that I pass really well now, and if my family gives me any ****, it will be because they KNOW that I'm trans. If I was a stranger on the street, they wouldn't even know it.

My experience out and about these days is that 95% of people don't give me a second look. (1% of people are very perceptive, the other 4% are horny men.)

Now they officially have revealed the uniforms and the thread has been just as positive as the other thread was negative - and they are the same jerseys.

We really do need an "overreaction" rating emoji on this board.

Looked at Secondary Ed requirements here just for kicks.
Since my undergrad was so long ago, that might not be a real option.

Fun fact: It requires that you take the major survey courses in U.S. History and Western Civ.
I've taught 3 of them. I only took the one that I never taught, but that was at a community college in 1992.

I'm guessing that it's extremely rare that someone completes a PhD and looks at a secondary ed program, even on a lark.

With all that typed, it's time to win the Powerball.

Well, maybe 4% of you that are interested in a six-foot amazon. :) Seems like most guys are more into the porcelain doll princesses. (Not that there's anything wrong with that!)

After college I had a friend who was about 5-11. She said it was weird for her because in high school no one was interested in "the tall freak" but in college everyone found her "statuesque" or something like that.

Personally I like women who look like people not like some idealization of a woman so no porcelain princesses for me.

But seriously. I'm not in the shape I need to be in (yet) to start my Instagram fitness modeling career, so I'm not anywhere close to expecting guys to fall over themselves for me.

And looking at my earlier post, it almost seems disrespectful to other women, which totally wasn't intended. I know what I look like, and I'm pretty sure I'm 25th percentile at best. But it's funny, I do seem to appeal to some guys, and that's fine. I'll take that.

I think a lot of guys would agree with me in that I would rather have a cute girl with a great personality than a "hot" girl with a dull personality. It just becomes frustrating to deal with.

My experience with the ones that are super hot, is that it's a roll of dice whether they are really vain or not. Heck that happens with any girls that are average or above but the odds become higher the hotter they are.

Just give me a woman with a nice butt, drinks beer, and likes sports.

Have wondered if you might be able to teach online AP stuff if someone would have an opening.

My kids have taken a lot of AP Calculus from some high school teacher in Washington state.
