Dear Binghamton,

YOU SUCK.

No love,
Feather.



I am a medieval studies major. I came to this school because they had an (alleged) very good medieval studies program. Not so much.

There are fourteen courses offered for medival studies next semester. ONLY TWO OF THEM ARE TAUGHT IN ENGLISH. And actually? One is only taught in half-English; the rest is in Italian but it's not required to speak it fluently. That's Dante's Divine Comedy, which would be all well and good if I was, you know, a fucking literature major. ARRRRGH. The other course that's open to me is Medieval 101- MEDIEVAL 101!!! Guess what you do in that joke of a course? You learn how to study the Middle Ages. You don't actually study them. You just learn how to. Not to mention that they got rid of 204 and 205 completely, which kind of sucks. 204 was the Early Middle Ages and 205 was the High Middle Ages; I've already taken 204, which 101 is a rehash of. I don't want to sit through half a bazillion desert saints again, for christ's sake. Everyone's pissed about it but there's nothing anyone can do because it's the director of the program's personal pet project or something, and she made it a graduation requirement.

Kicker: I'm going to be a senior next year. I need 28 credits in my major of 300 level or above to graduate.

I AM NOT GOING TO GRADUATE. THIS MAKES ME INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED.

Plus, apparently, I also have to take an American History course, and a "C" or "J" course. C/J= composition and joint composition and oral, respectively.

WHAT THE FUCK WAS I WASTING ALL THAT TIME ON UP AT OCC IF NOT FUCKING COMPOSITION CLASSES AND PUBLIC SPEAKING, YOU DEPLORABLE MOTHERFUCKERS? AND YOU WANT TO MAKE ME TAKE FRESHMAN ENGLISH- FRESHMAN FUCKING ENGLISH!!!!! OVER AGAIN???

I am going to need Valium before I go to deal with these people, or someone's going to get hurt.

...

Note to Jade: if you went here, you wouldn't be in Harpur (the liberal arts college.) You wouldn't have the bizzare no-classes problems, so don't let this rant get to you too much.

Thanks, that's really good advice, I didn't realize they responded so late. I also didn't realize you could cancel your acceptance >_>

Well, you know, they're Cornell- god love 'em and all, but they've got that ivy covered stick up their ass. They don't need to respond earlier and all that. lol.

I actually don't know if you can cancel your acceptance. I'm gonna go ahead and say you can- I mean, shit comes up, you know? It's not like they can hold a gun to your head. I just don't want to see you get burned on it, even though you've got a great chance at getting into Cornell :)
