Two PhDs on Particracy, must be to balance out the swarm of Teenagers and College Students. :)


Don't discard the fact that some individuals here are kind of mature (aka. old) and are very knowledgeable at what they do despite the fact of not having a Ph. D. The fact is that some careers do not require a Ph. D or similar degree.

I am impressed. Not too many people go for an MPP these days. Though I find that mandating two concentrations (which I assumed applies to you as well-correct me if I am wrong) is useless. Students shouldn't have to take classes on a subject they don't find attractive. I do get the whole being a "well-rounded individual" but I still think it's pointless.

Anyways, enough of my ranting about the current educational system. Congratulations on your achievement, sir. Are you going to go into international law by any chance?

Those were the concentrations that I picked. My program offered four different concentrations, allowing students to pick up to two (IR, American Politics, State and Local Policy, and Economics). International Law and National Security law are my two areas of interest, but I'm also more than a bit interested in administrative law.

I'm too lazy, so I'll just copy this from the old forums.

Damn. I never though Nasty-George would be such a junior... <- (I copied this too just for Nasty-George)


Party Name and Nation: It's a secret! Ha!
Real Name: 8-)
Age: 24
General Location: Helsinki, Finland
General Political Affiliation [if any]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Coalition_Party I supported the Nuorsuomalainen Puolue (Party of the Young Finns) and LKP (Liberal Peoples Party) before they both scattered.
General Religious Affiliation [if any]: Custom Christian? I'm member of the Evangelic Lutheran Chruch and will most likely be for the rest of my life, but I'm not Lutheran. I have my own weird Gnostic-Christian mess that I believe in.
Professional Goal/Current Occupation: Currently studying Medicine in Helsinki University.
What is your favorite genre of music: Lately, Finnish Punk Rock.
Hobbies: Ice Hockey, Football (The one where you kick a BALL with your FEET, not the one where you grab and EGG with your HANDS), Squash and Getting Wasted every weekend.
Level of School (h.s., grade school, college, none): Mm, University candidate? I'm not sure how that translates to english. Bachelor of Medicine?
Other information: I commanded a main battle tank (Leopard 2A4) in the Finnish Army and achieved a rank of Vänrikki (2nd Lieutenant) and studied in the RUK (Reserve Officer School), so if we end up in a dispute in RP war over what is possible in warfare and what is not, I win. ;)

Aha, just admit the fact you never moved on. And who you callin' a junior grandpa?

Getting wasted every weekend was probably the best out of your hobbies.

Wow you like golf TWoodWil? So do I, I'm an avid player. You play for sport or just for fun? California I hear has a good amount of golf courses; I have subscription to Golf Digest and they mention California alot when they talk about quality golf courses. Connecticut has some good courses but nothing like Pebble Beach for example.
