News is also that the variant is considerably less lethal. On top of that, there are new and effective treatments for when a person gets a severe case. Obviously it would be best to prevent cases in the first place, but again, what I’m trying to say is that not wearing a mask is rude, but not an existential threat to your existence. Again, I’m NOT anti mask.

I'd understand your perspective if OP was advocating like endless lockdowns/remote learning but they're just asking for mask wearing and testing. That's not asking a lot, especially when testing is way more convenient for us than most people.

Also, if it spreads enough, more chance it mutates and more chance vaccines are less effective. I get at this point no one is perfect, but come on, some things are bare minimums anyone should be able to do.

I get what you're saying but news are latest variants the vaccine is considerably less effective against, even with hospitilizations. Vaccine is a good tool but when you can also help with something as easy as mask wearing, you should.

But people going to large gatherings are not being unsafe. A party of vaccinated people is quite safe. In fact, the whole reason we got the vaccine was so we could go back to doing normal stuff. I don’t think you understand that you hold an opinion that only 1% of people hold here. Your views are the outlier, not mine. I would bet that at least 80% of people have been to an event you would deem hazardous and the other 19% don’t care that other people do. The point is, people should do why they’re comfortable with. If you’re not comfortable going to a party, then don’t go. And if you’re not comfortable with other people going to parties, then stay home. But you shouldn’t willingly come to campus and then try to tell other people what to do with their lives. That’s entitlement. Expecting other people to do exactly as you do and exactly what you want. Also I wouldn’t say I’m a member of your community, because from the way it sounds, you’re living on another planet homie.

“Don’t act surprised that people are going to parties in college” please spare the condescension. I understand that being isolated is a huge cause of anxiety and depression. That’s exactly why I chose to return to campus. Arguing that people are participating in large unsafe gatherings to avoid isolation and then saying that if you’re uncomfortable with that then you should have studied remotely is oxymoronic. I’m not saying that people shouldn’t hang out with their friends or even have small parties, but there have been several parties with dozens and dozens of unmasked people in small spaces happening over the course of the semester which is extremely and unnecessarily unsafe. Severely disappointed in the selfish and entitled attitude of member’s of our community such as yourself.

Plenty of people have felt totally overwhelmed at college and made it work. The pandemic has only made things harder for everyone, but I'm confident things can get better for you. I certainly don't have all of the answers, but I do have some suggestions based on things I've seen that helped me and other people I know: 1) Think about what courses you've taken in the past or ones that you could take in the future that might genuinely interest you - are there any courses that you enjoyed in the past or ones that look fun/interesting? I know there are pressures to think about what is "practical," but if you aren't motivated to study a particular subject then it won't be practical for you, because probably won't work hard at it or do well. I would choose a concentration on the basis of one that allows you to take the largest number of classes that you would like to take anyway. People major in all kinds of things in undergrad and then go on to do very different things. And if it's medicine you are interested in, you should know that medical schools like candidates who have studied the humanities. 2) If you are thinking about medical school, make sure you really want to be a doctor. Maybe talk to some people in the field and see if you can shadow them (not so easy during covid, but maybe later...) . It can be a very rewarding field. It's also a very long haul, and sometimes you see people who are very sick that you can't cure, so it can be very sad at times. 3) Remember that you can take classes after college to complete requirements. Community colleges are relatively inexpensive. 4) Academic support services can be helpful. I wonder if you might find career services helpful too. 5) Meeting people during covid is harder, but joining a club or two can at least give you a chance to be with other people. Wishing you well!

That certainly could happen. But everyone that decided to come to campus knew that was a risk they were taking. You could have stayed home and taken classes asynchronously, but you didn't. Don't act surprised that people are going to parties in college. The real entitlement is people like you wanting to police what others can do. The virus isn't going away any time soon and staying isolated from other people is not a good decision for a lot of people. You might be fine not hanging out in large groups, and that's perfectly fine. For some people, it brings them a lot of joy and is an integral part of their life. Things affect everyone differently, so it's up to you to decide what you want to do and how you want to live your life. For some people, staying isolated is a big cause of anxiety and depression, while other people prefer to be alone. Taking care of your mental health and looking out for your own wellbeing isn't entitlement, it's just giving yourself the respect you deserve :)

It’s not always as simple as avoiding situations with unmasked people. For example, someone could decide that they’re comfortable with the risk of going to a maskless party and bring the virus back to the room they share with someone else who isn’t comfortable with that risk. On a broader note, the attitude that it’s the responsibility of those who choose to wear their masks appropriately and not go to large unsafe gatherings to protect the community from those who choose to behave irresponsibly reeks of entitlement and I’m tired of it. Masks and vaccines aren’t infallible and y’all seriously don’t realize how high the stakes are for some people if they were to get the virus and possibly spread it to their families over break.

Literally, everywhere you are required to go on campus requires masking. You choose to put yourself in situations with unmasked people, and if you don't like that, then don't put yourself in them.

Yes, and it can kill you whether or not you or the people around you are participating in the rituals that do little to impede the virus and are mostly just culture war identity markers. If you’re worried about it don’t go to environments where thousands of students congregate and delude yourself into thinking that you’re safe as long as they’re all wearing their cloth masks properly and following the security theater rules. The virus doesn’t give a shit about the security theater.

The entire concept of having your own risk level only works if you are the only person affected by catching the virus. We all have to share classrooms, study spaces, common rooms, bathrooms, etc. with each other. One person deciding that they’re comfortable with more risky behavior puts *everyone* else at risk. “Public” health issues shouldn’t boil down to matters of “personal” risk.

I think it's much more complicated than that because our actions affect everyone else. When we wear a mask, we are protecting other people. When we don't wear a mask, we are spreading the virus around our school community, putting vulnerable people more at risk. Some people are immunocompromised and can't live their lives the way they want - and the actions of others can even further limit them. Some professors have young children that can't be vaxxed yet. I understand the frustration that this pandemic has been going on so long, but I do think things will get better. Personally, I think it's no big deal to wear a mask so that other people can participate a bit more in our community. That's what I thought Brown community was all about.

Yes, obviously if you are sick with a fever, chills, are coughing and sneezing constantly, get tested, double mask, avoid people whenever possible and get tested. I was referring specifically to the idea in the comment that basically people who have any symptoms at all need to get tested. There are dozens of symptoms that we all experience every day, I tend to cough or sneeze at least twice, that doesn’t mean I have Covid and it doesn’t mean I need to drop everything and get tested. Not entirely sure why you think I’m against masks, I’m not. I wear a mask out of respect, to be polite. I was specifically saying that the comment expresses a sentiment that is simply alarmist and not fitting to the true risk of Covid. And the point of a vaccine is that not everyone can get it, with 90+% of old Americans vaccinated and 70% of the rest of the population vaccinated, the virus spreads almost entirely among the unvaccinated. Also, tbh, your sense of moral superiority, as well as the sense of moral superiority present in the comment, do absolutely zero practical good. You say “show you give a fuck about the community,” and I’m not entirely sure what you hope to accomplish.

The key thing here that resonates with me is the condemnation of the actions of folks who are actually sick. A vaccinated individual who shows symptoms can efficiently spread the virus so when that person decides to come to school and not wear a mask, they are putting everyone at risk. And this isn’t just about the 99.5% of students who are vaccinated but the families and communities they may be bringing the virus back home to. Whether it’s children, immunocompromised, elderly, etc. we all have people in our lives we need to protect. This is the thing that blows my mind. People are just seeing this through the lens of how it affects them individually without considering the impact to communities and how this is a *public* health crisis. Sure, it’s maybe only 10 times more deadly than the flu but if everyone gets it then that’s millions of fucking people dead that didn’t have to die.. grandparents or mother’s and fathers that could still be with us today but aren’t because people were too fucking consumed with the minor inconvenience of staying home when they felt sick. So yeah, get tested, wear a mask if you feel ill and act like you give a fuck about your community.

Not sure why we’re all supposed to live in constant fear of a virus when 99.5% of us are vaccinated. Crossing Thayer street is orders of magnitude more risky than Covid at this point. I get that wearing a mask is not that invasive, and really should just be common courtesy, but this is no longer a pandemic. Its an endemic virus. Right now, more dangerous than the flu, but not by much, especially to the vaccinated. Maybe events with maskless people in scary to you, in which case I would suggest avoiding them. All the necessary places (classrooms, libraries, etc.) have high mask usage. You don’t actually need to go to parties lol

People should be able to set their own risk levels. If you're not comfortable going to a party, then don't go. Really not that complicated. But forcing everyone to live their life the way you want them to assumes that everyone is fine w the same risk level, but they're not.

At the time of the program's implementation, 81.5% of Brown students could swim. Quickly, classes filled with eager underclassmen hoping to learn to swim so they could graduate. It's unknown how many passed. ///////////////////// For more information on little-known history and other 1920s events, consult the 100YearsAgoLive Project, a Twitter program that reports events from exactly 100 years ago as if they’re happening in real time.

Kind of a similar situation? COVID destroyed my freshman experience and coming in as a sophmore for the first time for my 3rd semester in a row without a break... yikes, man. I had no friends/support system, was stressed, and could barely get out of bed or keep up with school work. I was regretting the concentration I had wanted and felt like I was out of my mind. I ended up coming out of it by dropping some really stressful courses (honestly a banger) and actively seeking other people to work on projects with or get help from, who ended up becoming my friends, as well as joining clubs for my hobbies and meeting some really cool people in the process. People here are so chill with being asked for help. Just ask people to study or work together and things go so much smoother. I don't really know what to say much about the career thing, but I would look into it and remember you can always change your concentrator later. As for housing, you might want to check out late housing for dorm assignments? I think you can still register on the StarRes Portal if you're looking for a dorm. Best of luck my dude

This is especially frustrating for me to read given how many people would love to have the opportunity of being able to study at Brown.

I would write a note to admissions or your regional Brown admissions and let them know why. Would help copy your HS counselor since I assume counselor knows what’s going on. They do require progress report, though. Maybe the counselor can also vouch for you.

I don't really care about how much I'm learning, just which is easiest. I'm also a sophomore.

It could possibly be sooner, but there’s nothing to really go off of until we know it’s officially released. I think the December 15th date comes from Yale, and since Yale and Brown usually release ED decisions on the same date, people are making that assumption

it said “early to mid december” and they sent out the email stating that applicants will not be able to view their application materials after 11:59pm December 9th (today). do you know if that means it could be over the weekend/sooner than the 15th?

It’s what I keep seeing on the internet + I remember seeing an email brown sent ED applicants on another sub (I’ll see if I can find it). I’m pretty sure it said mid-December, both most people are assuming it comes out the 15th

Regarding just the med school (which presumably means you might want to be a doctor), you should read the comments in this discussion (especially by "Sure"). Then you can, at least, focus on other possible options. [What is Wrong with Physicians](https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2021/12/what-is-wrong-with-physicians.html)

If you’re a freshman, the Food and Philosophy freshman seminar is an easy A. I took it my freshman year and did next to nothing for that class on the average week. Early Modern Philosophy is also a pretty easy course, but much more work than Food and Philosophy. Longer essays mostly, but it’s also a more interesting course since it’s actually philosophy that you’re learning lol For the classes that are on critical review, look at the average time spent per week and the maximum to see which ones are easy. For the ones not on critical review, you gotta just ask people you know who’ve taken philosophy courses which ones were easy

I think you’ve done all you can and need to. The explanations are there. To your benefit, you showed you could pull out of a tailspin. So good for you. Don’t fret, and good luck.

Confirming that the flex credits and points carry over to the next semester. You lose them all if not used by end of the academic year (so you got til end of May).

If you don't mind parking a 10-15 minute walk away from campus, you can definitely find parking on residential streets, even in the mornings. Once mid to late afternoon hits, its pretty easy to find spots closer to campus. It just will take a bit of time to learn the best areas/routes to look for parking along

Flex meal credit and flex points carry over fall to spring sems but not academic years. \*(Not sure if they've changed it, this is how it was a few years ago)
