Dual BA Program Between Columbia University and Sciences Po

1) Backdoor to Columbia University.

2) Program for students rejected from Ivy League Institutions, and more generally top tier universities, as admission to this dual degree is relatively high.

3) Group of privileged and self-referential rich kids hanging out between themselves and not doing much in their first two years of college.

4) Four year, direct entry program with the two first years in France at one of Sciences Po's regional campuses, and the two final years in the United States at the undergraduate college for non-traditional students of Columbia University, the School of General Studies. Upon graduation, students are awarded the Sciences Po Bachelor of Arts and the Columbia School of General Studies (GS) Bachelor of Arts.

The most common, if not the only message you will see when linking to Microsoft's "solution pages" after using the error reportingfeature

Example: When my PC couldn't play music due to a "missing audio device error" I linked to this message screen.
So I went looking on message boards for similar issue and found one. The person posted about how Microsoft had nothing.
That forum entry was posted two YEARS before.
Me: Oh cool! I can just link to Microsoft's solution page! How convenient....

This problem was caused by Windows. This program was created by Microsoft Corporation. Microsoft Corporation does not currently have a solution for the problem that you reported.

Me: You've got to be kidding. Oh Cool! Windows has a built-in help program....

Program Tripping

Program Tripping refers to a toxic dynamic within Alcoholics Anonymous, where there is a coercive culture that pressures members to conform to rigid interpretations of the program. This phenomenon often manifests in the following ways:

Coercive Conformity: Members may feel obligated to strictly adhere to the 12 steps and the group's expectations, with little room for personal interpretation or individual journey. Those who deviate from these norms may face social ostracism.

Harassment and Intimidation: Individuals expressing doubts or differing views may experience aggressive questioning or criticism, creating an environment of fear that discourages open sharing and vulnerability.

Escalation of Conflict: In extreme cases, members may resort to threatening behavior, including calling law enforcement on others in attempts to have them arrested or removed from the group. This escalation is deeply concerning and can create a hostile atmosphere that undermines the principles of support and compassion.

Social Consequences: Members who do not conform may face negative repercussions, such as isolation, bullying, or being targeted for public confrontation, which can severely impact their willingness to engage with the recovery process.

Impact on Recovery: Rather than fostering a safe and supportive environment, Program Tripping can lead to increased anxiety, reluctance to seek help, and ultimately, a detrimental effect on a member’s recovery journey.

welfare program

A program that your hard earned money pays for whether you like it or not that was intentionally used to help people get out of debt, but instead just encourages them to stay poor, or continue to do what made them poor.
tim: I just signed up for the welfare program

fred: Welfare? wasn't that made up to encourage you to not work?

tim: It's supposed to help people like me pay for living, now let's celebrate and smoke weed I bought with the check I received from welfare.
