@DadTwoGirls: So many people must do it though it seems! Yes it is a shame that we need more STEM majors and yet no one will fund them. I’ve heard our president Donald Trump is defunding the humanities so hopefully he will allocate some of these resources to where we need them since he is a businessman and not another lawyer (since everyone says we need more STEM).
@boneh3ad Okay thanks but you were implying M.S. TAships were pretty easy to obtain. It appears they are available, but in small amounts and certainly not guaranteed. I hope that isn’t the case!
