You're probably right, unpacking all the boxes and suitcases will take far longer than changing the sheets.

So I got a call today from a rep of Northwestern University's Continuing Ed department. He had heard that I was expressing interest in a Masters of Public Policy and Administration and we set up a time next week to talk about possibilities.
I'm excited! Living in Chicago would just be a dream. There are a couple of issues: For one, my mom says this isn't "real grad school" because the people who called me were from continuing ed (meaning if I signed up I'd be taking night classes, or something). I don't know if she knows what she's talking about. I assume she must because she's been a grad student a number of times.
There's also the issue of just how exactly Northwestern knew to get in touch with me. I got an email saying the "process had started" but I hadn't contacted them, and my mom denied having done so on my behalf. We suspect that one of my mom's old boyfriends had intervened on my behalf - she had contacted him, the head of the Poli Sci department at some private university, to inquire about what I could do with a Poli Sci bachelors and where I could take it, grad school-wise. It was he who suggested the MPPA program at Northwestern.
So that's exciting! At this point I have no idea if I meet the requirements for enrollment (3.76 GPA, hopefully 3.8 by semester's end) but I guess we'll see!
