Education & Reference - 17 September 2007

I'm seriously asking this because I am about to embark on a 2 year MA in Secondary Education (social sciences) and hopefully teach my specialised subject after I graduate. I am American, my degree is in Australia where I hope to settle. Getting a BA in your teaching subject is the standard thing to do (so I have 29k in undergraduate loan debt I am paying off) and I wouldn't be able to get the proper visa w/out staying 2 years.

When I am finished I'll have about 80k in total student loan debt, and no true guarantee of finding work or being allowed to stay in Oz---I am so anxious about this. I imagine repayment consolidated will be around 600$ a month.

Did you got to graduate school only to regret it or am will this gamble pay off? What have your experiences been?

Thanks***

I am reading a work of fiction and keep coming across three dots after certain paragraphs and the next paragraph starts in the future. I understand what the author is doing, but I am curious as to what this type of punctuation is actually called. I thought it was an ellipsis, but this is incorrect. Any ideas?

I take an english lit. class online, and we have weekly assignments for each reading. This particular assignment was due Wednesday, and I posted mine on Tuesday. About a week later, today, another student posted their answer, which was mine, but with a few words changed. It's like reading my paragraphs over again, with simple words like "rather" changed to "instead of." I don't plan to say anything, because I don't want to get the student in trouble, but it bothers me a little. What would you do?

So here is the deal. I am going to the National Guard in January, and when I return in March after 9 weeks of boot camp, I want to start enrolling back in college for my second degree. It's going to be a degree in architecture, however, with the recent housing slump and the recession and all, is it a field that is worth going into? I figured that if that didn't work out, I'd pursue web design, yet another passion of mine.

I used to work for an architect, but I left because he was a miserly old fool who cared more about how many hours you worked as opposed to how much you were worth.

Any suggestions?

I'm thinking about going to medical school and getting an MD. My major in college was Statistics with an emphasis on business. Everyone is telling me that with my background I should be getting an MD/MBA. But whenever I hear about getting an MBA I keep hearing that it's useless, that compnaies rely more on experience than degrees. Does anyone here have any experiences of getting an MBA and is it worth it? Also I know that if one gets an MD/PH.D school is technically free because you get so many scholarships and fellowships without even asking. Anyone know if that's true with an MD/MBA?

For my assignment I have to write a dialogue that may occur between myself and a child who appears to have been beaten by his mother, but every time I try to write it I feel my character is "leading" the child.

What sort of questions would I ask that wouldn't traumatise the kid even more than he already would be?

What sort of things would a Five year old be likely to disclose to a child care worker about his mother hitting him?
