I do not get this statement at all. Why can't you be a good journalist and a good lawyer? But you can the other way around?

It's because to be a lawyer you need to know all the technical stuff that goes along with it. To be a journalist you just have to find stories and ask questions, and its assumed that if you're a lawyer you are capable of writing pretty well.

Ok, I see. So basically, anyone who wants to can be a journalist

glendon's the good one, it's a smaller bilingual liberal arts campus, whereas keele is the main campus but it's got a reputation for being in a 'bad' part of toronto *according to my parents, i dont know about that*

technically, it's not toronto. it's still north york. i think. and from what i know, it is kinda a bad area.

yeah thats what my friend said too
he went there

isn't york at jane and finch. or something.

don't knock the west side, i live there

no, a lot of my friends got into Ryerson in march...

Ryerson started admitting for Journalism on the 16th. Also, I looked into it. Glendon is the bad one, Keele is the better one.

Alas. I am stuck going to RCTC in rochester for another.. yearsss.. lol

MCAD was too damn expensive. butt faces.

W00T! Registered at York yesterday, double majoring in psychology

I just applied for my subject posts at u of t... u of t is silly and you choose after first year. i am going to be doing a double major (political science and urban, economic, and social geography) as well as a minor (american studies).

i was supposed to apply for my subject posts last year, but i didn't meet the prerequistes so i had no choice but to apply to english becausei just needed 4 credits to get in. but now, i've applied to a double major in psychology and crime and deviance.

I got accepted, in good standing, at Utah State University. They never sent me a letter...but that's what it said online.

Reza, what are you double majoring in? Psych and....?

Good picks Jon. Poli sci is awesome and combined geography you'll definitely have some good opportunities after you graduate.

It could have gotten lost in the mail or something. That happened to my friend recently... that or they just forgot all together. She ended up phoning them to find out if she got accepted.

Actually, Queen's is the same way. But I prefer it this way. There's no pressure to choose a major in first year. You can try out a variety of courses and choose what you like best for the rest of your education.

ya Trent is the same. I have a friend who is entering third year who still hasn't declared his major. He knows he's going to do a cultural studies major (which is probably the worst subject to major in ever lol) but they haven't asked him to declare a major yet.

Psychology and Professional Writing. Also, if you didn't recieve your admission letter, don't fret. It happens, happened to me with Carleton and York. They just take their sweet time mailing stuff, if you're waiting for acceptance from universities, check both OUAC and their own websites because they'll be the first ones to be updated. I didn't even know that York accepted me until I went on OUAC to accept Windsor lol.

So.. yeah.. I decided on Wilfred Laurier. I'm not really sure why. But I'm pretty happy about the decision.

I'm going to be a senior and still am sort of undeclared...

So turns out, after a school accepts you, you have to tell them you're actually coming. Like, by april 22nd. I did this today. I hope I still get in.

Yeah I ran into that here too. Except, ya know, they never told me I was in. So how am I supposed to accept that?
