These university protests and how the administration is violently imposing the cops on students is making me worried about my future. Right now I’m still in undergrad but I wont be for much longer and will be moving on to my Masters soon (in a little over a year I should be done) but the schools that have graduate and doctoral programs are all cracking down on students hard and I don’t know if I want to go to a school that does shit like that (this is Canada, by the way).
I would like to study abroad but money is an issue and so are my dogs. Money because I am actually on disability so travelling is restricted in general so I would assume leaving the country to study is also prohibited (or at least I would be kicked off and be left with no income); the dogs are only an emotional issue as I don’t want them to be hurt on the plane if I leave the country (I made a post lamenting about this, it was stupid lol). Can I study in a different province? Sure, but again, money is still the main problem. I am more than willing to get a job during my masters and doctorate but losing that support system sucks. This is a weird rant but it’s my genuine feelings. Maybe one or some of you relate, I don’t know.
Sending you positive feelings! I'm sure you will still be able to do your Masters there, they will not shut down programs even with their attitude.
Sucks that you can't really go abroad, but understandable that you don't want to leave your dogs behind.
I guess there's also remote classes but I don't know anything about them
I just kinda wish my options for universities here were better in terms of politics. Like, I’d rather no study at a school that brutally cracks down on student protestors but those schools seem to be my only options for graduate and PhD programs, which sucks.
I definitely do not want to study abroad without my dogs, the countries I am looking at so far seem fine with dogs entering so thats not my main problem, its more so my emotions surrounding flying in a plane for long hours while the dogs have to be stuck where everyone’s suitcases are. I also don’t like the idea of flying over large bodies of water while with the dogs. It’s mainly just me catastrophizing as other than that there’s no real restrictions being placed on studying in a different country. I think once I get over this mental hurdle going somewhere else will be a bit easier for me.
I appreciate the positive vibes being sent lol
