I am finishing my undergraduate degree this year and would like to go on to do
my graduate study in molecular biology.  Does anyone know about universities 
with strong molecular biology program?  I am looking towards doing a Ph.D. 
hopefully without having to get a Masters degree fisrt.  I am open to suggestion
in terms of the specific areas within molecular biology.  Research can be either
basic or applied. At the moment, my interest lies within mobile DNA elements, 
introns studies from evolutionary perspective, nucleosomes and gene regulations,
and gene regulations in archaebacteria.  

If anyone have any suggestion, could you please e-mail me at either of these
address:
			LIZST@AC.DAL.CA
                              or
                   KURNIAWANJ@IMB.LAN.NRC.CA 

Thanks a lot.

It's a good question.

For international students, finances must be an issue
since support is tied to visa status and restrictions.
It is not fair for departments to admit international
students (who have no other support) without the prospect 
of supporting them for the expected length of their 
degree program.

For domestic students, admission (to IU CS) is based
solely on merit since alternative methods of substantial 
support are readily available (jobs, family, loans, etc.).

Canadian students applying in the US would be somewhere in between.

How about having difficulty in acknowledging a scholarship board for

Preparing individuals for productive work and a   high quality of life in
today's society is a complex  challenge for schools and corporations. To meet
this challenge, Northwestern University has established a unique Ph.D. program
in the Learning Sciences. Its purpose is to advance the research and
development of innovative educational structures and technologies.

Research in the Learning Sciences is aimed at creating environments that offer
all students a rich variety of opportunities for learning to think effectively,
both within and outside of formal learning settings. Graduate student and
faculty research efforts are supported by a multimedia, networked computing 
infrastructure and an unusual commitment to developing technologies that
function effectively within their intended settings. 

The Learning Sciences is a synthesis of computational and social science
disciplines including artificial intelligence, cognitive and developmental
psychology, educational research, linguistics, computer science, anthropology
and fields that develop strategies for teaching complex subject matter. 

Through research, field work and apprenticeships, the Ph.D. program will
prepare its graduates to assume leadership roles in advancing the scientific
understanding and systematic practices of learning and teaching.

Students are eligible for competitively-awarded multi-year funding. To qualify
for financial aid, candidates should apply by January 15, 1993. Applications
received after that date may be  considered. Individuals with relevant teaching
experience or a strong academic  background in a field related to the Learning
Sciences are encouraged to apply. For  application materials or for further
information, contact:

Howdy all!  The question posed a few days ago about college a cappella
groups perked my interest.  I sing with the generics, the University
of Maryland's only all-male a cappella group.  I'm interested in
hearing from as many other college groups out there as possible, to
compile a list from.  We already have a big list of groups, published
by the Contemporary A Cappella Society of America, but much of the
info is out of date or otherwise a little quirky.

So I'm taking a little survey.  If anyone out there knows of or is
affiliated with a college a cappella group, send me email with some
basic info:

	Group Name and School Represented
	A contact person with that group
	An email address/snail address/phone for that person
	Male / Female / Co-ed
	Number of members
	Style of music performed (contemporary, doo-wop, barbershop,
	                          jazz, gospel, etc...)
	How long has the group been around?

If there is any kind of interest in this thing, and if those who
respond are willing, I'll see about posting the results or otherwise
making them available.

Tell your friends, and I'll see if I get any response.  Thanks a bunch!

	Tell your student senate that you find wood grain offensive and
in bad taste.  Tell them that you think that all the wood in the university
should be covered up.  I know it sounds stupid, but not nearly as stupid as
telling people they can't hang pictures in their own living space (providing
that the pictures do not violate an federal or state/provincial laws).

	Hmmm, Ted should thank you for making his point! :-)

	Someone compared their frat to a family, while at the same time
saying that it was impossible to be co-ed, because the members would
be boinking each other alll the time like crazed rabbits with no self
control.
	Ted pointed out that actual blood families manage to be co-ed
without resorting to romance, etc.
	If frats are really like families, then they should be able to
act like family with female members and perhaps see them as something
more than just date-material. There should be no reason that female
and male members cannot comport themselves as siblings would.
