    There's no rank decay so even if you don't hit R3 this week, you'll still get 80% progress through your current rank and hit it next week even with just casual pvp. At least, that's my understanding of how it works. Anyway, this has been fun and I take back what I said about the community.

    Mounts do not go 200% speed. But yeah, they could definitely do 50% mounts at level 20. They're not OP in Ashenvale. PvP zone-specific mounts could be 75%.

    There's a trinket at the WSG vendor at Friendly. It's not good, but it fills a slot.

    FLPSX also a fantastic option for your ROTH. FAGIX is another great one.

    Horizon 2: Forbidden West

    The last mission/last few bosses in the base game are my only real complaints with the game, other than a bit of unnecessary sidequest bloat. Still haven't gotten to play the DLC because you have to work off a completed save.

    If people stop enrolling in shitty colleges, they will close. Colleges are actually closing at a relatively high rate right now. The large state universities will always be around, but they should be. They're institutions for a reason, that serve multiple (often competing) functions. States...

    At least in the Social Sciences, Math for Liberal Arts Majors is generally a skippable prerequisite for a second course, Stats for Social Sciences, which is then a prerequisite for Statistic Research Methods. Regardless, this argument has transformed from "I was forced to take a bunch of...

    So you chose to take those courses instead of other things like business communications or economics or whatever that would have served you better. And now you're blaming the system for your choices?

    I think selling into the hype is the play here. When the ETF does get approved, I think people are going to sell the news very very hard.

    Both of my best friends in college got art degrees. They definitely learned all of that stuff at our university. They're both very successfully self-employed, with their own art businesses, including multiple published books. Additionally, one was a professional animator in Japan for a while...

    Too much but most of it was free because I worked for the university or the community college. 12 years bouncing between the two in various roles. Graduated with multiple useless degrees, but a really good understanding of what higher education gets right and wrong. 4-year college is just not...

    Exactly. An engineer should know how to write effective business communication. A journalist should understand basic research methods and statistics and be able to read a fucking graph and understand what it means. An artist should be able to do both of the above. Everyone should understand...

    But it's still not going to the cover costs of educating the department's undergraduate students. Yes, it's revenue, and revenue is good, but that's not the same thing. Anyway, research schools have very fucked incentive structures. The best researchers are generally not the best instructors...

    So you literally just told me it's a pre-requisite to get into the program, not a core part of the program. Those pre-requisites can all be done at community college. Thanks for agreeing with me.

    Those research grants bring in revenue that fund and grow the research programs, and therefore grow the standing of the department vs other competitive research organizations, but they don't actually fund the undergraduate education in that department. In fact, grant money is heavily regulated...
