Got an e-mail from my class that doesn't start for another two weeks that we better get working on the first assignment due! Getting an ESL endorsement for my teaching license may have been a mistake.

Unfortunately my books from last semester only sold for a hot $20. But Voc Rehab is worth it just for the smug satisfaction of walking up to the book store cashier with about 10 books without that "Used" sticker on it and everyone thinks you're rich as gently caress for buying new books.

I have a few fellow vets in my classes and in one class the dude has a molle backpack, a hat with flag velcrod on, and cargo shorts. I didn't want to talk to him about anything, ever, but it turns out he's a huge leftist communist so I got him on that Voc Rehab train. Basically the only time I talk about being a vet to anyone is to convince them to get on Voc Rehab.

Hell yea, today had an uncomfortable confrontation with another vet who was screaming people are pussies and that all Mexicans are criminals, Arabs make him uncomfortable and he wishes he was back where he could just just kill them, and a bunch of other real lovely stuff backed up by "if you weren't over there you don't know". Professors intervened and he apologized, one professor is still reporting the incident to the dean of his program. What program is he in, you ask? Why, criminal justice, of course.

I told him he needs to go to the VA and get therapy. I thought I was pretty reasonable, he called me a pussy. Oh well.

DownByTheWooter posted:what started all this? Was it in class? Just some loon raving in the middle of campus? In the hallway outside of class. He was talking with someone who I think was like-minded but a little more of a "don't say this poo poo out loud" kinda person. Either that or they were just humoring him. I think having someone who looked like they agreed with him meant, to him, that he had permission to get loud and ultra racist? Next week should be interesting to see if he's there again, he's not in one of my classes, just across the hall. Who knows if the administration will actually do anything.

Hell yea, I love summer classes! One on campus and one online. Take quizzes where you can google the question and get answers and the professors don't give a gently caress. Summer rules for irrelevant credits!

Voc Rehab told me to go to the book store on campus and buy the most expensive computer and the most expensive printer. Voc Rehab rules assholes. Also walking up to the cashier with all new books amd walking away without paying a dime.

Booger Presley posted:I was sitting in my math class today and watched in disgust as this dude harvested snacks out of his nose. After he ate his fill he dug around a bit more and wiped it on the desk. How in the gently caress can an adult not only do such a thing, but in front of a class of ~60? I've seen one guy in college pick his nose and eat it, but holy poo poo did he pick and eat. Like, full on, no one ever told him he should not do it or shamed him for it as a kid. A girl would make audible gagging noises whenever he did it and he still didn't get the hint that he should not loving stick his finger up his nose and eat what he pulls out. He was in school to be a teacher, too, I'm sure that turned out well.

I didn't turn in my waiver one year and the G I Bill paid for the school's health insurance. They sent me letters wanting their $1,000 back. I never got less money or anything on the 1st, so I wonder why the letters stopped.

The VA, basically saying they overpaid the school, and now I owe! Whatever, letters stopped like a year ago. I ain't worried about it anymore.

Soulex posted:Why 600 only? Why is there a change of rate (there shouldn’t be I think). I don't think that's correct about Thanksgiving. I believe you get all the BAH as long as school is in session and only not paid if you're between semesters.

TheQuietWilds posted:Im coming up on the end of the second year of medical school and I've never felt so burned out in my life. There's a huge exam (USMLE Step 1) at the end of the summer and the generally accepted advice is you need about a month of straight 10-12h days to prepare. I have no idea how I'm going to maintain motivation. If you don't go back to school you can't go back to campus and peep yoga butts.

You don't have to repay if you fail, necessarily, as long as you can prove that you were attending the entire time and made an effort to pass. In my first year of using my GI Bill I had my life blow up fantastically and totally ignored an online class. Posted once at the end of the class in a "What did you learn" type question, failed, and didn't have to pay it back. The other classes where I just stopped showing up 1/4 of the way through I had to pay, though. Like all things VA related YMMV.

mods changed my name posted:Yeah, this program doesnt require a dual major or anything thankfully. Probably fucks me out of working in 49 states or something but I can't even give a poo poo at this point. I did a teaching licensure on Voc Rehab, so feel free to ask. Basically you'll have two options that look pretty identical except for a few classes. The biggest difference in between a History degree and a History degree with a education license is that you don't have a senior seminar class, you have student teaching. Instead of working on draft after draft after draft of a thesis you'll do five months in a school trying to be a teacher. Your license will be state specific no matter what, but the good news is it's usually as easy as "submit transcripts, take state specific test" to get a job in any other state. Also your military experience will help a lot when you watch 22 year old kids freak out about how to handle a 13 year old being mean to them.
