    The GRE

    Because it's $195 each time, and the closest testing center is a 6-hour roundtrip drive, so including gas probably a $300 expense. I don't have a lot of discretionary income. With my timeline, I'll have time to take it a second time if needed, but I'd rather not spend an extra $300.

    The GRE

    Anyone here taken the General GRE recently, preferably since it was revised/remade in 2011? Advice? How long did you study, what did you use? I'm planning on taking it in November. Won't be applying to schools until winter 15/16, for Fall 2016 enrollment. I was last in a college class in...

    Best Denver area to live

    I lived in Golden for a while, and liked it a lot. The drive to the airport is a little long, but fairly easy. Access to the mountains on 70, bike trails, Boulder, downtown Denver, and 470 to 25 for C Springs or to 285 for other high country options is super convenient. Golden had a nice little...

    Proposed CIML Split

    The BEDS document only counts students in 9th-11th, as the number of seniors is irrelevant...they won't be there during the next year anyway. If anything, the document should count 8th graders at designated feeder middle/JH schools for a more accurate count.

    ISU's Team Hotel?

    Probably is where they're staying. I believe it's where the football team & traveling party stayed for the Pinstripe Bowl.

    ISUAA tip of the cap (San Diego especially)

    Agreed. I lived in Denver for a while and always enjoyed popping in to the football gamewatches held downtown. Now I'm the only Cyclone (that I know of) in my current town and miss having other ISU fans around during games.

    Rank Your Favorite Ski Resorts

    I hit Jackson Hole during MLK Weekend and stayed through the Thursday after a few years back. Saturday/Sunday were packed, crazy busy. Monday it tapered off and by the end of the week it was pretty quiet with mostly locals. There may have been events going on around the mountain or a big...

    Rank Your Favorite Ski Resorts

    Somebody can't ride bumps, eh? (Disclaimer: I snowboard and ski. Primarily ski.) Bad skiers are just as guilty of "shaving" the mountain as bad snowboarders (see: sideslip). Snowboarders cause moguls just the same as skiers. It's not like skiers are the only ones pushing snow around with each...

    It's been almost six years since I-State was adopted (2008). Has it grown on you yet?

    Re: It's been almost six years since I-State was adopted (2008). Has it grown on you I live in a small mountain town 1,000 miles from Iowa State and frequently wear a winter hat with the "I-State" logo plastered on it. Almost every day someone asks "Iowa State?" or "Cyclone?" and then...

    Krick leaving program, Jensen still deciding what he wants to do

    I haven't read the whole thread, but it is possible that at the beginning of the season, Brandon did plan on staying for a 5th year (grad courses or whatever). Maybe something happened during the season -- job offer for after graduation, knew the NFL wasn't going to be in the picture, lost...

    Kinco. Their gloves and mittens are my lifeline in the winter.

    Lutsen mountain MN sking

    Just googled the place to see if it's where I went a few times in college, and it was. Good skiing for the Midwest. Kinda surprised to see that they have a high speed 6-pack detach lift. Thought maybe they'd have a quad, guess things have changed in the Midwest since I last skied there. Don't...

    Worst possible game commentating teams

    Gus Johnson doing football games. He's tolerable during basketball because there's constant action. In football between plays and slow periods his brain wanders and the most random, useless, annoying stuff comes out of his mouth.

    Jeremiah George ??

    He should have great results at the ISU Pro Day and that will probably land him in a camp somewhere. Not sure if he makes it past a practice squad in his first year but I could see him making a special teams squad after a year or two.

    Thanksgiving Alone

    I'm....babysitting tonight. The kid's parents own a restaurant. I feel bad for the kid, he usually has a sitter at least 5 nights a week during the busy times or when one parent is out of town. Despite living 1,000 miles from home, I'm lucky enough to live in a community with a lot of young...
