Stupid double entry.

re: academics and outsiders. academics are really about outside knowledge, so that would not be the problem. what would be an issue i think is actually studying acadmiecs. an academic studying academics would be bad - b/c you would prolly draw some unpleasant conclusions and report some nasty stories. it just wouldn't go over well - and you couldn't escape it. it would follow you, and you'd never get tenure maybe. it would be a big gamble

as for what you should do ... it sounds like you're in a tight spot. i dunno. i mean, is there anyway to do both? could you work, and go to school part time? would that be something you would be interested in?
