Education & Reference - 18 May 2007

Just doing the math for my daughter's first 4 years of higher education and thinking... WOW, how are we going to do this? We haven't even been able to buy a house yet! Not looking for smart @$$ remarks, just sympathy I guess... or real offers (I know, yeah right) I am looking into scholarships, etc. My main problem is that we are in the lower end of what is still considered middle income and it astounds me what they think we can or should be able to afford. They don't take into account all of a family's other expenses! I don't think these amounts have been adjusted for cost of living in quite some time (gas and grocery increases?!) Saving money has not been an option since we already live by the skin of our teeth to stay in the school district we live in which we think is important. Real words of advice or encouragement? Our oldest has an A/B average. Not the top of the class, but ok.

The sentences I have to translate are:

1) nam astutias meas haud facile perficiam, si senex tranquillus erit ubi litteras in manus dabo.

2) si saeuus erit, ego senem tam frictum faciam quam cicer.

I know what the rest of the words mean. But I can't get the 'sense' of 'perficiam' and 'faciam' in the respective sentences.

If anyone would like to give their translation(s) of either or both of the above sentences, they are very welcome to do so!

Just out of curiosity...as a financial aid administrator I am astounded by the number of serious questions posed here (over and over again, I might add). What can we do to make information more accessible to students/parents? Serious answers only please.

I recently was accepted for transfer into the UCLA department of design media arts, as well as a pre-major in the Interdisciplinary Computing & The Arts Major at UCSD and I wanted to get people's opinions on which might be a better program. Im a little on the fence here, but at this point I see myself going to UCLA, for a variety of reasons, but mainly because of the location(in terms of getting a job, I hate westwood), and also because Im already in the program there, unlike at UCSD where theres still a chance I might not get into the major.
Any thoughts? Anyone? has anyone graduated from either program that could shed some insight?
