I am a graduate student in a math dept. as you can guess, i earn very little money; however I was always proud that at the very least i am not taking charity from anyone (my undergrad had a full tuition schol and stipend so i never took a dollar from parents after age 18) of late i have been wondering why all univs from harvard to whatever, agree that my salary should be the lowest of all, inlc janitors, security guards, etc. we all know that some work is high and some work is low, else all pays would be equal(let's be practical) and that those above despise those below, so is my work the lowest of all? recently i disclosed this to an elderly woman who is a friend, and she tells me that i should be thankful to have tution and TAship and the chance to stay alive. all of a sudden, i feel like a parasite; is the univ doing me a favour by keeping me alive; so the air i breathe, the food i eat, is it all just robbery? in that case, should i die? Am i a burden on society?

I know she loves to read but I don't really know what kinds of books. I thought about a gift certificate but I know books are expensive. I hoped to spend between 15 - 20 dollars but don't want to look cheap. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm looking for an overseas graduate experience after having graduated from a pretty well-known and respected university in the US. I'm worried, however, that a degree from outside the US simply won't command respect. I can almost picture future employers glossing over my CV/resume and saying 'hmmm, I never heard of this school. Next...'
Furthermore, I've always dreamt of working outside the US. Would going to school abroad at the graduate level (i.e. Master's) improve my chances at all of landing a job overseas? Or am I better off saving the airfare and staying in the US?

I want something different for my college graduation invitations. I found a website that has invitations that are somewhat like what I want.

Look at the website and then you'll know more about what I am looking for. :)
(Click on the GRADUATION design on that page.)

I've always dreamt of living overseas (I'm from New York) and I'm looking to become a teacher, either in English as Second/Foreign Language or History...so I figure teaching overseas at international schools would be the perfect way for me to pursue both of my ambitions. Question is: how do I achieve both goals? Any advice or thoughts would be welcome, thanks.
