Education & Reference - 28 March 2007

WHEN I have fears that I may cease to be
Before my pen has glean'd my teeming brain,
Before high pil`d books, in charact'ry,
Hold like rich garners the full-ripen'd grain;
When I behold, upon the night's starr'd face, 5
Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,
And feel that I may never live to trace
Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance;
And when I feel, fair creature of an hour!
That I shall never look upon thee more, 10
Never have relish in the faery power
Of unreflecting love;—then on the shore
Of the wide world I stand alone, and think,
Till Love and Fame to nothingness do sink.

I am most likely going to UC Irvine, majoring in Public Health. However, that department just opened in 2003. Since it is such a new department, is that bad? I would like to know the overall feel of UC Irvine, and intersting things to do there. Also, which dorms are the best? Thank you for helping.

I found out I got into NYU a few days ago as a communications major. Today I found out I will be getting next to nothing from financial aid and would have to take out some serious loans. Do you think NYU is worth the 48 grand a year? And if you are a student there what is NYU really like?

current: A high school label is just a connotation where such rules don't apply in the real world.

I can't think of the right words to expand.
I got a comment on connotation "of what?"

Working on old AP Calc BC practice tests, I ran across this, and no one in my class knows how to solve it:

a) In the interval 0
(cot x) (dy/dx) + y = (csc x)

b)Find the solution of hte differential equation in part a that satisfies the condition that y = 0 when x = pi/3



Is it a separable equation? If so, how do I separate the terms??

If not, please help!! Thanks!!

AH! It is almost 9pm and this paper is due tomorrow! I've been researching for it since 7pm and still have nothing to show for it. Our teacher gave us a list of these classroom management styles:
Authoritarian
Intimidation
Permissive
Cookbook (the one I'm looking for!)
Instructional
Behavior-modification
Socio-emotional climate
Group Process

We were each assigned one to research and I got Cookbook. I've been looking all over the internet but for some reason can't find much on this classroom management style. I need a definition for it and a discription of the classroom implications for teachers & for students

Your help is VERY appreciated!

As in: To be elected as a U.S. Senator, representing a certain state, one must be an inhabitant of cette state for 9 years or more. Am I thinking of "said" state, or is "cette" a real/acceptable word for that sentence.

I know it is French for "this".

Please don't respond with dictionary links, or the like. Use it in a sentence if possible.

Langston Hughes'
Mother to Son

In this poem, Hughes writes about a mother speaking to her son about life's experiences. He uses the metaphor of a crystal stair.
_______________________________________________

Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor --
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now --
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

I had some really big BAD stuff going on in my high school years, I couldn't focus on my studies. I was barely able to go to school.
I had a 2.5 GPA and an SAT score of 1400 (new SAT). I think I can do better if I take it again because I was so slow, I missed about 30% of the question. I think I can get 1600 if I take it again.

I wanna get into any four-year college. I wanna major in biology. I really don't want to a community college (don't ask why). Do you think it's my only choice?
