Higher Education (University +) - September 2006

Many online dictionary websites showed this definition:
To choose; to wish for; to desire.
But I would like to know specific meaning of the word 'optate'; in above definition, I have three choices for its meaning, not a one specific meaning.

I would really appreciate if you would tell me the specific meaning of the word 'optate'.

English teacher please help me!
Thank you so much!

Do they have access to students personal info.? I had this one professor that knew me all to well? But I did not volunteer any info about myself, grades other classes etc. When i turned him down for a drink he made it known to me that we were the same age and he lived close by-also made a crack about a class i w'd a year ago? When i questioned him he gave me some lame excuse that he googled me-but some things are impossible to know? W/ out my file at hand -what is your opinion? Do students have no privacy from their teachers?

My sister attends Penn State and she found 1 room that was available for rent, but she called the renter today and he said whoever he recieved an application/$275 deposit from first would get the room. I am also in college at Bowie State, and if there are any extra funds left on my bill after everything has been covered by loans or other financial aid then they send me a refund check for the extra funds. This year I was offered a PLUS loan, but did not accept it thinking that I would not need it, but now it turns out that I probably will need it and will be in debt by the end of this year. My classes also started 8/28, and I am not even there yet because I am out of state. As if all of this were not bad enough, my sister had ME to loan her the $275 for her room deposit today, then she paid $15 to ship it overnight to the renter. But then later today she found out that someone else already got the room. So now I am out of $275, and my sister is out of $15 and still has nowhere to stay.

they all have rotton teeth, everywhere i walk in my town and
esp. at my university, there was one girl with black, and yellow teeth that looked like an aligators mouth, and another girl who barely had any teeth at all. I wish society would give complimentary free toothbruses to our university and all girls in general

It's 5:30 am. I reluctantly drag my body out of bed, pick out clothes for the day and walk into my bathroom. After getting ready, I go downstairs to eat my breakfast and at 7:00 I sit down at my desk and start school. You see, I’m home schooled and have been ever since 7th grade. While I used to think that this negatively affected some aspects of my life (such as a smaller group of friends than I would like to have), I have come to realize that being home schooled has definitely had an outstanding effect on my love of learning

I live in the New York area and want take a class at night because I work during the day. THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!!!! The community colleges don't offer the classes I need and all the major universities in the area don't offer night classes. I need to take Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics towards a graduate degree in Engineering, but it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find them. Does anyone know where these classes are offered this semester in the afternoon, like 6-ish? Do online courses metriculate, or are they pretty much a rip off? Please help. About to prop my head under the wheel of a Mack truck!!!

I went to public school all my life. I suffer greatly from social anxiety. I never raised my hand. I went to community college for 2 years, which is very big as well. I finally decided to try a different environment and I'm doing much better in my classes. I got to all girl college, although men are allowed to join out night classes and I have 2 men in one of my night classes.

Will the person nicknamed 'panda' who answered my question on accounting thesis topic please contact me?
The IFRS topic really sparked my interest. I will have to check first if that topic has already been done before as a thesis. If so, I will choose a different topic. But right now the IFRS seems like something I would enjoy writing about for a thesis.
I couldn't contact you because you don't have that option selected.
Go to my profile and email me.

The person who answered with the Sabanes-Oxley topic....that also seems interesting. :)

Some believe that Satan is a personified entity while others contend that he is a force. Does it truly boil down to what you WANT to believe or are there some things out there that are true no matter what you believe?
