OT college was OT Women's choices was Dear Red States

I think we did find a happy medium for DD, who went to New College of Florida. They had a great program that balanced research with real quality teaching and mentoring relationships between faculty and students. It's a gem of a school. Places like that do exist, but it takes real searching. A friend of mine from grad school teaches at the New College. She was at UNC Chapel Hill, but was denied tenure for not having published enough in spite of having a very well recieved book published by Columbia University Press. She's much happier at New College. Elizabeth |

After DS narrows it down to about 20, I'll talk to you... There's a book called "Colleges that Change Lives" that's worth a gander. Elizabeth |

And, as a parent paying the tuition, you'll be happier than I was as a student with the notion that when there are only a dozen or so students in a class, it's pretty darn difficult to get away with either cutting class or not doing your homework. My friends at State with a couple hundred in a class got away with it a lot easier than I did. -- Karen C - California Editor/Proofreader www.IntlProofingConsortium.com "On his tombstone, Benjamin Franklin wanted it said not that he had been rich but rather that he had been useful."

Dear Red States
I agree. I don't care if she wrote it or not, it is offensive to those in
red or blue states and she shouldn't have posted it. This and she (and a few others) is why I don't read this group often. I would read this more often if the subjects were stitching related instead of posts that are intended to offend people. Why don't we try to keep our posts related to stitching and kind in nature. There is enough hate in this world that we don't need posts whether "it's satire/humor" or not. Go to a satirical group and post this trash there. Once again, I will return to lurking and seldom read this group. Sorry to those of you who are offended by this post. Marianne "lewmew" wrote in message ... Karen didn't write the piece she posted; it's satire/humour that's been circulating the Web since the 2004 Presidential election. I don't care - I still find it extremely offensive. Linda |

Linda I agree with the kind part but I find it interesting to discuss non needlework related topics as well. Often i find them interesting,informative and some entertaining. So if post are marked OT well people can skip them. My only beef is that the headers don't often get changed when it rambles into a new topic. Ruby |
