discrimination

Read a random definition: collateral

A quick definition of discrimination:

Discrimination: Treating people differently when they are in the same situation, especially when there is no good reason for it. For example, if a boss only hires women and not men, even if the men are just as qualified, that is discrimination based on gender. Discrimination is bad and can be against the law.

A more thorough explanation:

Discrimination is when someone is treated differently from others who are in a similar situation, especially when there is no good reason for it. For example, if an employer refuses to hire any male applicants and instead hires the first female applicant who has the same qualifications, this is discrimination based on gender.

Discrimination can be against many different groups of people, such as those of a certain race, religion, age, or sexual orientation. It is illegal to discriminate against someone in the workplace, housing, education, or any other area of life.

Another example of discrimination is when a store owner refuses to serve someone because of their race. This is not only morally wrong, but it is also against the law.

Discrimination is a serious issue that can have a negative impact on people's lives. It is important to treat everyone with respect and fairness, regardless of their differences.

Lmaoo the Zoom seminars
GW is requesting my fall transcripts (I had intended to apply during the fall semester when I requested them, but had three hurricanes-one with water rescues in my neighborhood-an emergency 2 1/2 week trip to Colorado to say goodbye to my mother-in-law, then I received my service dog, which required another eight days away from school for training), so I ended up applying this month. If I request new transcripts through LSAC, does each school I applied to receive them? I'm hoping to not have to write an addendum of why all of my narrative evaluations mention my busy schedule or that I had to miss classes and whatnot. (My school doesn't do letter grades.)

'tis very sad
It sucks cause I feel like I fucked up my video statement but the rest of my app was strong and now the video statement isn't even a requirement
I think as long as you haven't been R or WL, you're still in the running! I don't think they'd leave anyone hanging if they already knew! <3

Tried negotiating scholarships with the school but they basically called my bluff saying I have to share other letters by the deposit deadline to get any $. It feels good to bet on myself though
