<p>I think it’s time to lay off. I have followed the UCSB threads for some time, being an alum myself, with a daughter who is soon to graduate from UCSB as well. During that time, I have found Mikemac to be an invaluable resource, quite knowledgeable about how things are run. He has been a voice of reason, citing pages from the UCSB catalog and web site to back up his advice, which I have found to be valid. Is it really so important to be “right”?</p>
