from the mother:

“Hey Everyone!

My 13 yr old Naliah was just accepted into the Duke University TIP program Summer studies program for Cryptology and Number Theory. She will be attending Rice University for 3 weeks during july and staying in the dorms as a real college student. We have accepted the offer and now have a week to raise a deposit and until March 8th to pay any program fees. My daughter is a brilliant child who has alot of these opportunites poppin up for her and sometimes they are a bit expensive and the money is a little tight. I want to show her that she can do anything she sets her mind to and will do anything in my power to be able to send her off to follow her dreams. Anything you can donate or help with would be greatly appreciated and will be going to a great cause! Thank you all!”

Flowers for Ritu

Many of you probably know already, one of our own, Ritu Sachdeva, passed away a few weeks ago. Her friends and fellow TIPsters have asked Duke TIP to create a scholarship in her honor. You can donate to this scholarship either through Duke itself by clicking the checkbox for “I'm making this gift in memory or honor of someone.” or through this fundraiser.

Please donate to Duke TIP if you can. So many students deserve the opportunity to go but can't due to financial circumstances. I know this post is a few weeks late, but it’s still not too late to donate in Ritu's memory.

[tipislove]

also, could you see if some of your followers are going uga term 1? id love to talk to some more people about it and hopefully make me less nervous 😅

Followers, please like or reblog this post if you’re going to UGA term 1!

[tipislove]

hi!!! im rice term 1 2015 and uga term 1 2016 :)) you've probably gotten similar questions but i still feel nervous to make friends because im switching campuses. there are a lot of opportunities and tipsters are the nicest most accepting people ever, but do you have any tips (haha) on how to approach new people?

Hi there! I hope this answer isn’t too late.

Usually the best way to approach people is to see if they have any similar interests to you. For example, if they are wearing some sort of fandom merch or carrying around a book, definitely comment on it, especially if you’re in that fandom too. Once you figure out your similar interests, it gets much easier to talk to them.

I hope that helps! Also, you can look at this ask for some other tips. :)

What are the traditions at Rice vs. University of Georgia?

Neither of our admins went to Rice or UGA, so we can’t really answer. I'm pretty sure that all campuses generally have the same major traditions though. Can anyone else add more?

[tipislove]

Duke east term one 2014 and Davidson term two 2013 :)

I’ll add you as soon as possible! (Sorry I took so long to reply!)

[tipislove]

Hi! i went to UGA term 1 in 2015. can you add me please?

I will add you as soon as possible! I’m so sorry for the long delay.

What are the differences between East and West? Is one better than the other, is one more easier to make friends at, etc? Thanks!

The main differences between East and West are the classes they offer. East tends to have more humanities and social sciences classes while West has more STEM classes. Other than that, most of the traditions are the same, and you’ll have lots of fun no matter which campus you go to.
