Living on a University or close to a major university is often very different from the area around you. They have their own way of life and culture.

I have been reading up on SJW activism in college campuses. I am sorry Junior has to work for a major university. Be safe.

I'm curious about what you think Ohio is like.

If you don't refer to it as The Ohio State University, they might revoke the offer.

(Congrats.)

I'm going to start stress all of my definite articles, just in case. Actually, I went back and put the "The" into my application letter because I knew it'd get me just a little further.

I'm sorry that you have to move to Ohio.

The thing about the movie Columbus is that it really makes you feel good about the prospect of moving to Columbus. I've also engaged in a little campus activism here and there, so I don't think I'm the one who has to be worried about SJWs.

And thanks everybody. I give you all some credit for this, the writing and movie-watching I've done here has definitely contributed to the strength of my application.

I'm surprised to learn that The Ohio State University is in Indiana. Academia is so counter-intuitive sometimes.

The state is 75% vowels. It's a recipe for disaster.
