<p>sabaray,
I just checked out your link and the quote “This department occupies the exact same footprint as they had fifty years ago.” That is very believable to me. IMO it is not only antiquated in it’s own right, but brings on Non-English speaking scholars (who I am sure are brilliant), but it leaves no one who relates to the 2nd or 3rd year Physics 2010-2020 student who is doomed by the physics department’s benign (IMHO malignant) neglect.
It’s antiquated, overwhelmed by Non-English speaking people (nice people-but unable to communicate)
What’s a student to do? Do we have to go to another institution to take physics, as is recommended unofficially by the bulk of UVA students?
I am weighing my options right now, because I sure as h@ll don’t want to do another semester of physics at UVA.
BTW, my GPA is very solid and I’d like to keep it that way.</p>
