Any good masters counseling programs in Ohio?
So far, all I have is Ohio State University and University of Toledo. Does anyone know of any other good M.A. programs for community counseling, marriage and family therapy or other therapy/counseling programs?
1 AnswerHigher Education (University +)10 years agoGrad School admission deadline for Fall 2012?
I'm planning to apply to Ohio State University and University of Toledo for graduate school. I intend to study something in counseling. I fish around on their websites but I can't find a definite answer as to when the deadlines are. I saw somewhere that December 1 is the deadline but I'm not sure. Help!
2 AnswersHigher Education (University +)10 years agoI need some advice about getting into a psychology graduate program.?
This is my situation:
I recently transferred from nursing to psychology and I am on time in terms of finishing requirements. My gpa is 3.1 because the nursing classes dragged me down. They were all c's since I hated nursing. I transferred into psych and now my classes are mostly A's with a B or two. I have one more semester to finish but I was wondering, is it possible to get into a counseling psychology graduate program with a low gpa?
Some other things to consider:
no research experience because of transferring so late (junior year)
haven't taken the GRE yet (what score would generally be considered "good"?)
I transferred because I was doing nursing for my parents and realized that psychology is my passion.
***tell me if I have left out any information?***
Can you give me any advice in general for applying to graduate school? like what may have worked for you?
1 AnswerHigher Education (University +)10 years agoIndulge my curiosity: a question for boys (or girls) about girls.?
I would like to know: I understand the allure of beyonce and britney spears but 1. do you guys take girls seriously when they walk around half naked? The inspiration for the question came from beyonce's "run the world". I thought it was a pathetic attempt at girl power. The women undulate behind beyone dressed as prostitutes and proclaim that they are worthy of respect.
I am wondering because I said, in my ethnic studies class, how it was absurd that women expect men to take them seriously when they are walking around in skimpy outfits. How can anyone focus when your cleavage is so apparent? The male teacher was offended by my question, haha, and responded that women have freedom of expression. I should note that a guy agreed with me in that class.
That's the first question.
2. The second is, what is your definition of a prude? Is it a girl who has self-respect and won't sleep around or is it something else?
3. Third question: why do guys criticize girls if they have strict morals while looking down on those who are loose with their morals?
I have a hunch that those types of males don't hold women in high regard in general.
I always thought men had strange reactions toward women, then again im not a man so I don't fully understand the motives.
4. Last question: What traits do men respect in a woman?
I should warn you that "sandwich making" has been used to death. With that said, I won't mind such a response because I'll be able to sort out the men from the boys much easier.
5 AnswersGender Studies10 years agoWhy is "The Scarlet Letter" a classic? *spoiler alert = i mention the ending*?
I read the book. It wasn't a page turner for me but I recognize the merit of its publication. I feel like something deeper is going over my head. I'm probably going to read the cliff notes to examine theme and symbolism but I also felt like I was waiting for a proper resolution besides the priest dying and what was the deal with the ex-husband mentally torturing the priest? The concepts seemed a bit foggy to me. I still liked it. I will probably reread it a few years later, when my mind has developed a bit more.
My main concern is: What did you get out of the book?
1 AnswerBooks & Authors10 years agoWhy is "catcher in the rye" a classic?
Why is it a classic? My sister read it and said it was pure nonsense. Something about a teen boy who swears a lot and gets with a prostitute, no substantial plot. I wanted to read but after that review, I probably won't. However, the question still lingers in my mind. Why is it a classic?
4 AnswersBooks & Authors10 years agoCan anyone recommend me fictional novels or books with a racism theme?
Before you get worked up, allow me to explain. My cousin asked for any recommendations I could remember so she could recommend those books to her acquaintance who loves to read but has some racist tendencies. Essentially, she is trying to hint to her friend that it's wrong. All I was able to tell her was Kindred by Octavia Butler and To Kill a Mockingbird. Both books I highly recommend to anyone. I guess the theme would be more anti-racism now that I think about it. So, don't hold back. Make long lists if you have to. Thanks in advance.

Asalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatu, I would like to know about making up fasts.

Do you ever wish you had an older brother to protect you?
you know...like when you bring your boyfriend home to meet your family and your dad and your older brother sit him down and grill him?
it's nice when you have a dad to protect you...but i just think that a brother would be closer to your age and understand you better......
im the oldest of two(sisters) and my alarm always goes off in my head when she mentions the very term "boy" and i don't think i could let her date ever(she's 12)...and sometimes i feel my mom is too lax around the subject(she acts like our best friend...yea) so i have to be the overprotective one....my dad is just plain protective.......
sometimes i watch movies where the older brother sticks up for the sister and i think it would be nice to have a protector instead of always being one......

(You don't have to answer all of them, just something to get your brain going)
what kind of girl do guys usually want to be around?
what is with the trend of guys dating dumb-as-a-rock beauties?
what do guys value more: being easy on the eyes or having some depth in your conversations?
why don't you hear more about guys being abused by their girlfriends?...is there an institution to help guys?
why do guys cheat?
do you ever get tired of the pussycat doll image and wish you had a good girl?
me and my friends never talk about guys in a derogatory fashion, do you talk about girls that way? if so, why?
and finally, where are all the sensitive guys that are secure enough in their masculinity to cry in front of a large crowd and write poetry that makes sense and not think of girls as "chicks" or "their woman"?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoWhat would you say? *This is for everyone*?
here's some improv for you...
pretend i'm your girlfriend or boyfriend and your writing a love letter or any form of love correspondence....what would you say?
now pretend i'm that same special someone and i cheated on you...write an angry letter showing your raw feelings...what would you say?
this is good for those needing some practice being romantic and for those who just found out their world is falling apart because their special someone cheated on them...so VENT!
the best answer is the one with most sincere response...and i know a faker when i see one!.....i'll vote for you if you're genuine...so get those fingers warmed up!
