We have confirmed the dates for the verbal course.  October 16-Nov.6th,
Mondays 7-9PM in 417West. I need checks soon folks or I will have to cancel
due to lack of interest! You cannot wait until the last possible moment to
commit.  You have to give me time to get materials together, generate the
certificates, etc.  

 

FOR STUDENTS APPLYING FOR ENTRY IN 2007: 

 

I AM APPALLED AT THE LACK OF PREPARATION I AM SEEING AS STUDENTS CLAMOUR FOR
COMMITTEE LETTERS.  DO NOT CALL MY OFFICE AND ASK THAT WE DO THINGS
IMMEDIATELY!  DO NOT HOVER OVER WOLDINE'S DESK LIKE A PACK OF WOLVES!  SHE
WORKS DILIGENTLY ON YOUR BEHALF AND IF YOU OVERWHELM HER SHE MAY JUST FIND A
JOB THAT'S LESS STRESSFUL!  YOU HAVE MADE THIS SITUATION BY NOT HAVING THE
FORETHOUGHT TO LOOK AHEAD A YEAR AGO TO THIS MOMENT!  DO NOT BADGER YOUR
LETTER WRITER!  THEY HAVE MANY THINGS TO COMPLETE, YOUR LETTER BEING ONLY A
SMALL PART OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES.  

 

DO TAKE THE TIME TO THANK PEOPLE.  DO SEND A NOTE OF THANKS TO YOUR
COMMITTEE PERSON, TO WOLDINE, TO THE FACULTY YOU ARE BEGGING TO COMPLETE
EVALUATIONS DUE A CENTURY AGO!  DO MAKE IT A POINT TO APOLOGIZE FOR BEING SO
LATE AND SO LAZY ABOUT FINDING OUT ABOUT THIS PROCESS. DO TELL YOUR FRIENDS
NOT TO MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE NEXT YEAR.  DO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS
IN YOUR FILE; THIS IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY, NO ONE ELSE'S! AND LASTLY, DO
MAKE IT A POINT TO GET US YOUR AMCAS APPLICATION AND YOUR MCAT SCORES WHEN
THEY ARRIVE.
