Yea I have no clue. I put membership in a campus atheist group on my resume. My cycle went as well as can be expected.

The weirdest part is how pro Notre Dame he was.

I'm not sure why he think the ivory towers of academia are against him. Its probably the most atheist segment of the American population.

I totally forgot about this guy and I made this thread. So adult male film star has been ruled out? That's disappointing.

He doesn't have a bachelors degree either.

If that is the truth, then that must be why they are throwing out his application. I just figured his posts were the result of his paranoia.
That finally makes that make sense. I just assumed he was lying when he kept insisting they were refusing to even review his application before throwing it out. However, this provides an actual (non-conspiracy-theory) reason for them to, so I guess he was telling the truth there... though not really about why they were doing it.

Why do people say he doesn't have a bachelors degree? Didn't he say he graduated from Notre Dame??

This is boring now. I thought it was something interesting, like killed someone with good reason or political speaker for communism or something that might interest the likes of TLS. Being an atheist is not interesting in law school, more the norm. Having a bachelors is a rule at most schools, nothing special about them rejecting someone that doesn't meet the qualifications. But hey if he doesn't have a bachelors he can go back to UG and pad his abysmal GPA.

A fat girl said no when I asked her to dance in grade 9 because she was looking lonely along the wall by herself.

I know someone who actually "challenged the system" and got into Harvard off the WL with a 164 (non-URM, not super recent). He had the definition of epic softs (and he ended up not being able to go to Harvard because of his family).

Do you reflect on this moment and start singing the BNL song?
