Education & Reference - 7 July 2007

I know that I read the word in a novel by Dessen (either Just Listen or This Lullaby ). I am almost positive it started with a "P" like pirguet (looked like this- dont even think this is a real word...) or something. I don't know. But I really would like to find out. So please help me out if you don't mind.

I live with my parents, but they are not going to help pay for my school. I was going to do fafsa, but my parents make to much money, so i dont think it will work. I dont really want to get loans cuz I dont want to get stuck with big bills and interest when i graduate, but I might have to. Anyone know of the best place to get student loans with the best rates. I can use any advice possible. thanks

im 16 & beginning my college search. i used to always want to go to princeton, but now that im really looking into it, princeton doesnt seem to offer the majors im passionate about. im top of a class of about 150, will have taken approximately 12 ap classes by the time i graduate, have 400+ hours of community service, & do a lot of extracurricular activities. right now, i really want to write & direct films for my job. i used to think about being a lawyer or a doctor, but if i choose either of those careers, i may be successful, but never fulfilled or satisfied. i want to go to a great college because i know i have a good chance of getting in, but i want to go to college for filmmaking and screenplay writing. maybe even double in psychology- not because i want to be a psychologist but because the human mind interests me &can help me create influential movies. lol sorry for rambling, but basically what are top colleges that have great film programs(yale,stanford,columbia,etc??)

I'm just wondering if anyone knows the steps that I or someone in a position of authority at my school can take in order to become accredited. Maybe a website or a book of reference would be helpful.

I am actually studying for a foreign service officer test where prominent history questions regarding Foreign Policy and national governmental achievements are asked.

I have come to the conclusion thus far in my studies that I need to review ammendments, treaties, agreements, etc. So, I plan to get a hold of a College level history book for review.

What is the best way to review these things? I was thinking of using flash cards but do not want to depend on memorizing everything.

Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Should you not apply to a program that does not have any Full-time faculty who have research interests in the area you want to write your thesis on? Because there's a really great school I want to apply to but I read all the faculty bio's and not a single person has the same research interest as me, or even a somewhat similar research interest.
I'm finding that I'm running into this problem with a lot of the grad schools I have been researching and the majority of them are well-known ones. What should I do

Kind of I weird question I know. But I really do need some quotes about foundations.

For example-- "Nothing can be strong without a strong foundation." But something a little better.
