<p>Well…the gravitational effect is simply because of the high mass of the object causing warpage in spacetime…but, I think this is kind of interchangeable thing here. There would be no gravitational effect if the mass of the object wasn’t causing the warpage. In either case, I don’t think it matters too much at the moment…lol</p>
<p>Also, I meant social-conflict theory above…not structural functional.</p>
<p>Yes…there are connections to be made at high level universities, but your major really dictates that. Unless you’re going into business or politics or something like that…the connections aren’t going to be of quite as much importance. In scientific fields…you can make connections with professors, researchers etc…but you’re going to get far more out of the connections that you make in grad school. You can make solid connections in virtually any undergrad institution. As far as getting into grad school, connections can play a part, but your academic record is going to be the determining factor.</p>
<p>I’m in a community college right now…and one of my friends got an internship at the National Institute of Health last summer…this is an internship that tens of thousands of students apply to, and very few get accepted into. It’s a prestigious internship…and she got it from a community college in north central illinois. It comes down to academic performance and enthusiasm more than anything else.</p>
