If you don't mind, what conditions have to be meet for the large kicker? My situation is: finished BA, enlisted in Coast Guard, did not take Montgomery, separated, about to finish first masters in December. Starting second masters in January and will finish right before my 36 months run out.

6 months left of benefits. What is the best way to use this for graduate stuff? I am tempted to maybe try for a doctorate because of how oddly specific the degree is and how it relates to me (PhD in Semiotics and Small Cultures). That one is in Europe. There is another in europe that would be ok but also put me in debt by the second year and is only for a masters. I could also potentially go here, and have free tutition via California state benefits. The problem is income for this one. Any suggestions?

To get back the $1200 do you have to take an actual classroom class or can you exhaust it all online?

Starting second masters in January and will finish right before my 36 months run out. I didn't have loans, enlisted in AD Army and did my thing for almost 7 years. I came in and paid my $1000 I think it was back in 04? Got out and finished my AB in IS. Benefits lasted until my very last term and then I got that huge kicker. I have no clue why and have never heard of anyone else getting it. Bruce Boxlicker fucked around with this message at 15:53 on Sep 15, 2019 |

Maybe it was some obscure bonus? I had some Navy college fund thing that gave me $350/mo for 36 months alongside my GI Bill.

I don't think there was a TPUSA club at my alma mater, at least not a couple of years ago when I graduated. The VP of the College Republicans got himself kicked out for posting european white nationalist poo poo on their Facebook page.

If they are handing out flyers, just stand next to them with a trashcan that you wrote "recycling" on.

 This is juuuust about all you need to know about Toilet Paper USA. Text in the sign is edited, but the rest is genuine. It's about as coherent as most other right-wing propaganda.

If it makes you feel better, Joey Gibson barged in to my campus last spring to tell everyone that racism is cool or whatever he does. They put him in a not-so-used food court on the weekend and no one really went inside to listen. There were a lot of protesters outside though! Still, TPUSA is like Patriot Prayer++.

Man being 33 and going to college club sports is a weird feeling. Can't beat the cost though, $65 for free Kayaking trips and equipment rentals all year!

I had literally been in my law office right before i came to class. It’s because most of my classmates are fresh from undergrad and there are frequently industry recruiters here. Ans yeah, i’m getting a masters in finance. It’s capitalist central. Investment banking class today is all about leveraged buyouts.

I don't want any non-uniformed job where I have to show up in anything more than a t-shirt most days, and at most a polo and khakis for events. If I get the work done why does it matter if I look like business or not to my coworkers?
