Not a bad option, if they don't mind being the one who has to tell people to be quiet and stop doing having a good time .
No commute and no conflicts with holidays/etc. If I remember correctly the RA's usually just did their homework during their shifts, although they did occasionally have to shut down a dorm party.

 

She was offered one of the RLC dorms so should be ok. She would get a single and the 10k basically pays for the room and board.

 

I didn't know what it was but here is their description:What is an RLC?

Residential Learning Communities (RLCs) give students the opportunity to connect their academic goals with their co-curricular interests. Each RLC partners with faculty from the university to create a true learning environment conveniently located in a residence hall community.

Honors, ’12



Honors: The Honors Residential Learning Community is a cohort of students accepted to the Honors Program. Students live together in a community of scholars who have a mutual interest for striving in academic excellence

 

Morning everybody!

So its official, we are packing up and moving to AZ. Bummer that its going to be when its starting to get nice here and hot as balls in AZ, but what can you do.

 

What's in AZ?

(edit- besides rust-free classic cars, rocks, and poisonous everything?)

 

Work.

My company offered me a promotion to go. Probably be there for 2-4 yrs. Going to make the best of it and see as much of the SW as we can.

I can still ski, hunt, golf and fish in AZ so I am looking forward to a change.

 

Congrats. What part of AZ?

 

You just missed a great Nascar race out there

 

I really miss the 36 gallon tank that my ol Cummins had. Could go 4 weeks without refilling. The Tacoma is every 1 1/2 weeks, possibly 2 if the weather is warm - same commute.

As for running low on fuel, I used to work at VDO (when those bastards had a plant in CT) and they had started making resistor elements for their fuel pump. You really need to keep fuel in the tank to cool the pump. I was amazed how hot they would get and not ignite the fumes. We're talking... ouch, that's hot...

 

Oxymoron.

 

Congrats Billy and Tim.

 

Thanks. We will be just outside of Tuscon.

 

Yeahhhh that'll do it!

 

Mine waits for the light to come on too. She usually tells me a few days after it's been on.

 

She must not have much of a commute, then, if she's able to drive a couple of days with the fuel light on...

 

probably about a 10 min drive to work,

 

Don't be a hater

 

Sorry.


"OH MY GOD! THEY'RE MAKING ANOTHER LEFT HAND TURN!! DID YOU SEE THAT?!! HOLY SH*T!!"




I just don't find it entertaining to watch. Just as well; Football sucks up enough of my Sunday productivity without getting into Nascar too

 

I get what you are saying, but I could honestly watch NASCAR and somewhat enjoy it. With all the on-board cameras and computers they are equipping the cars with, it is now a little more exciting than the old days of watching them from the sky making the same oval over and over again.

Not a major veer, but that is the one gripe I have with hockey. For some reason it still feels like I am watching a game from 1985. I know they cant really change the camera angle, but there never seems to be an update other than the on screen stats and percentages. Eh, maybe I am being superficial with it all...

 

The instant replay is a LOT better now than it was in 1985. Or at least I assume it is; I wasn't watching much for TV in '85.
