ah stats...i was gonna do that, took the good ol' calculus instead.
lol lunch box.
again, you don't know my situation, i couldn't AFFORD the 20 bucks for the test in time, i KNOW the material like the back ofmy hand, like seriously pre-cal is a joke to me, and all that introductory trigonometry....the TEST HAS to be taken in order to progress, so i couldn't afford it, so now i have to take all non-math classes.
i CAN major in anything i want still, i am still a freshmen, so its an open book, and i could easily qualify to get into the engineering program here at my school
math is my friend!
and yeah i know plenty of jobs and hookups where i would make a lot o fmoney a year...but i don't want money, or status or whatever the fuck people do those jobs for.
i wanna give kids hope and inspiration like what one of my teachers did for me.
out of all of my friends, i am the only one that went straight to college, am i smarter? no, do i have more determination? yes.

Restriction on alleged gang members assailed at City Hall hearing

Court-approved restrictions on the ability of suspected gang members to gather in three parts of San Francisco were assailed by civil rights activists and some residents from those neighborhoods at a City Hall hearing Monday.
Two members of the Board of Supervisors, after listening to several hours of often emotional and angry testimony, expressed concern that no standards exist for determining whether somebody should be labeled as a gang member and that procedures don't exist to remove the label short of getting a court order.
"Until I hear people agreeing, I'm going to be interested in finding out legislatively what we can do," said Supervisor Chris Daly, who called for the hearing and said he regrets a vote he made last year supporting the injunction.
A legislative response to concerns raised Monday - which Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi said he also supports - could be limited as the courts grant the injunctions at the request of the city attorney.
The injunctions - obtained in late in 2006 and during 2007 - bar suspected gang members from associating with each other or loitering after 10 p.m. in certain parts of the city. Other banned activities include intimidating witnesses, marking public and private property with graffiti, forcing people to join a gang, or preventing them from leaving one, and in some cases wearing certain colors.
The injunctions name 94 people who allegedly are members of five different gangs - some of whom have yet to be contacted by police about the court order.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera, who sought and obtained the restrictions on gangs and alleged gang members, defended the tactic as necessary for public safety.
A report Herrera distributed Monday cited police statistics showing declines in crime in four blocks of Bayview-Hunters Point covered by an injunction against members of the Oakdale Mob. The report noted there were two gang-related homicides in the area in the year before the November 2006 injunction and none afterward.
After the hearing, Herrera said his office listens to every person who says they should not be on the list and said he is "more than happy" to discuss limits on how long a person's name can stay on it.
The dozens of people who testified at Monday's hearing - many of whom cheered Daly and booed a spokesman for the city attorney - expressed numerous objections to the gang injunctions, including that the law enforcement tactic amounts to racial profiling, aids gentrification that could wind up displacing long-time residents and smacks of political pandering on the part of the city attorney. Some questioned the need for restrictions at all.
Carlos Villarreal, executive director of the San Francisco Bay Area chapter of the National Lawyers Guild, accused Herrera of criminalizing residents.
"I think I have more danger of getting hit by an automobile in the Mission, or getting evicted, than from gang violence," Villarreal said at the hearing, which lasted several hours.
One man who says he was unfairly named in the injunction testified he has no gang tattoos, has never been convicted of a crime and lives near his extended family and wants to be able to associate with them. "I have a future of my own, so how do I get off the list?" he asked.
Public Defender Jeff Adachi, who has criticized the gang injunctions, did so again Monday, saying, "I understand politically it's a popular thing to do ... but its unintended consequences have made this program a failure from the beginning."
So far, Superior Court judges have granted injunctions affecting 22 alleged members of the Oakdale Mob gang in the Bayview neighborhood, 11 alleged members of the Chopper City gang in the Western Addition, 19 alleged members of the Eddy Rock gang in the Western Addition, 12 alleged members of the Knock Out Posse in the Western Addition and 30 alleged members of the Norteño gang in the Mission district.
