It may have just been the stupid undergrads' fault, but (based on numbers from Wikipedia) it looks like the city of Charlottesville is something like 30% stupid undergrads. And apparently not much else.
Three years? No thanks.



Edit: the fact is that, having lived in the south, I understand that most southerners wouldn't think twice about a random, table-sized confederate flag (or two!) at a party, and certainly don't view it as a racist symbol. But that doesn't mean I have to like it, and as an avowed Yankee this just reconfirms my decision that UVA wouldn't be a good fit for me.



Edit 2: I suppose I should clarify that when I said "my decision that UVA wouldn't be a good fit for me" I really meant "their decision to flat out reject me." :?
(because they knew I would never attend)

Seriously----as a hokie, I have a eternal responsibility to make fun of them no matter what but I gotta say, they bring it upon themselves. Having said that, I would still give one or more body parts to go to their law school

Two UC's in one day!

Berkeley,

I don't smoke weed.

UCLA,

I'll be sad not to be in living in LA. To console myself, I will replicate the experience by taking my car out to the highway on a nice summer day and sitting motionless for three hours.

Transcripts from my interview with a local Chicago TV station about a recent spat I had with the University of Chicago over them denying me entrance into their law school, I thought it might be appropriate for the Ding Bar.....

Chicago you seriously don't want me? Haha U of C is for losers and i'm addicted to winning. When I took the LSAT the run I was on made Sinatra, Jagger, Richards, all the others look like droopy-eyed, armless children. It was epic. I'm sorry that you can't handle my mystic powers. I got magic and I got poetry in my fingertips. You missed out because every plan I have is the best plan in the room. You say I should have written a why Chicago? That is your path. I will not believe that if I do something then I have to follow a certain path because it was written for normal people. People who aren't special. People who don't have tiger blood and Adonis DNA. I will not write a LOCI, those are for people who aren't special. I'm tired of pretending like I'm not special. I'm tired of pretending like I'm not bitching, a total fricking rock star from Mars, and people can't figure me out, they can't process me. I don't expect them to. You can't process me with a normal brain. I don't want your silly acceptance letter that'll say some thing like 'Don't be special, be one of us.' Newsflash: I am special, and I will never be one of you! I’m an F-18, Chicago, and I will destroy you in the air and deploy my ordnance to the ground. Oh and please don't think this is some coked up response because I'm sad that I didn't get into your crappy school, I am on a drug but not coke – it’s called Charlie Sheen. It’s not available because if you try it, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body. I like NYU better anyway.

After getting wind of this interview, they later decided to cancel my application for the rest of the cycle.

[quote="TommyK"]No clue about UVA, but to take Elie Mystal's reporting on it as gospel is a bit scary.

Possible explanation: they borrowed (or rented) an undergrad fraternity house to have a party with the understanding that party supplies would be there (like boards for flipcup and beer pong). They went in and found that the beer pong boards were painted in confederate flags. They were then faced with the option of not playing those games as some sort of tacit disapproval of the flags, or suck it up and play on the confederate flag beer pong boards. Now, as far as somebody saying the n-word - who knows. That was an anonymous report of "somebody" saying it. It could have been an undergrad fraternity member, or it could have not happened at all, or it could have been somebody quoting a rap lyric, or it could have been a guy in a white hood shouting it at a student of color.

Now, I know that the spirit of the ding bar is to vent at schools who have denied or waitlisted you and I don't want to derail that, but just wanted to temper Elie's race-baiting.[/quote]

Sorry but this is the wrong forum for that. We dont temper shit in the ding bar. I dont give a fuck if this story was written on the back of a homeless man's ass, if it makes UVA look bad then that shit is true. We are here to fuck shit up.

Maybe we can have our apps reconsidered if we SHOW "why UVa!"

Dear Northwestern,

Why do you hate undergraduate students so much? Sorry we haven't had enough time to get a shitty, poorly paying job and become northwestern material. Also, having a class watch some ugly chick getting off is just plain weird. Stay classy northwestern.

Dear Indiana:

Not only did I forget I applied to you, but after a very short 6 months you respond to me with a prestigious offer to be on your waitlist.

Well, no thanks. I think I'll settle for one of my full scholarship offers... or a school ranked higher than you with better job prospects.

Shame, I so wanted to live in redneck land. :(

Dear Stanford, thank you for the impersonal rejection letter. I'm sure you trust I won't take it personally.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
