What has your experience in Academia been so far?

[Defeated Lobster]

Prior to my graduate studies, I tended to assume that mathematics was the one discipline completely immune to personality issues, individual delusions, and misdirection. Mathematics was solid, set in stone, its foundations perfect and monolithic.

Then I met reality.

I doubt most people who have not investigated actual mathematics as a career are aware of just how damaged and absurd it has become. The brighter citizens of Western civilization may chuckle at the pseudoscience that is psychology and sociology and the never-ending embarrassments it suffers due to its flaws—the Sokal incident and the recent investigation showing that over 50% of the papers going through peer review hold conclusions that are clearly patently false, as just two examples.

These citizens are unaware, however, that mathematics is in much the same state. It's just that most people don't care about math and avoid it at all costs.

What about your experience in Academia?

I’m glad that we have a good number of unicels here. They give us more credibility as a group. You guys are appreciated in this space. Best of luck with your studies.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

I originally wanted to do academia to become a history/sociology professor but I realized nobody would take my views seriously because they're not part of the mainstream academia echo chamber. Now I'm majoring in compsci and want to rope 24/7 cause I hate it

Supreme. I studied math too. Opted for the workforce instead of graduate studies, not for lack of ability or grades, but because I had no interest in research or teaching. I still read math papers of interest from time to time (mostly discrete math and theoretical computer science) and brush up on any gaps of knowledge. A good chunk of the stuff is beyond me, since they make appeals to proofs and theorems that they either assume the reader is familiar with or they reference it in another paper I have to dig up and look at.

All that won't matter much. The nukes are coming.

Lmao feels like reading myself, in my teen years I became obssesed with WW2 history. But then I realized that I wouldn't fit in because some cuck student would tell his parents that I said that Hitler was indeed a good guy and it would be over for me.

So I did compsci but dropped because coding was too much for my sanity. Then I cucked myself into social work, not being aware of how many tons of marxism and feminism I would get spoon feeded like @manlet cUnt said in previous comment. Yet I endured because the career difficulty was set for whoroid IQ and it was in fact a cakewalk, problem now is that they don't hire men that easily, so I'm jobless and studying for state administration meanwhile.

 

[proudweeb]

only have a bachelor's and hated college lol, paying huge sums to sit in a class full of chads and stacies, to listen to a professor who barely spoke english

only thing I miss is the food, had some good restaurants on campus

Why those people are allowed to lecture is beyond. You'd think there are some requirements that need to be met when it comes to language, but apparently the system is more worried about filling diversity quotas.

most universities it's based off the research the prof did, not really their teaching abilities

I only ever bring my own crackers and sandwiches and starve myself to encourage me to work harder by rewarding myself with food afterwards. I'm still an undergrad tho so suffering is my state of being. I know literally nobody in my course. I get on better with people I met through a friend.

Lmao most of the guys in academia are a bunch of soys. A handful of them maybe smart and actually contribute something, the rest are dead weight. They know they can't make it in the real world so they live in their own fantasy universe called a university which is supported by state funds. No wonder most of them are socialists.

I unironically liked comp sci but never studies it. Big mistake

University has essentially been the worst years of my life, not because of things like rejection stories, but the humiliation and isolation from my peers the vast majority of the time. On campus you see students couples holding hands or big groups of friends walking up and down the campus courtyards smiling, while I stay on campus until the late hours (midnight) either going through lonely episodes of depression or studying/doing homework even on weekends (I have a campus key so I can enter some buildings). I cannot stay in my room because one of my other room mates brings his GF into his room (adjacent to mine) and I can hear them talking and even being more intimate. I at least have a few paid internship opportunities open right after I am done, but I conclude that I just want to leave this Nation. Apart from my Mother I have no one. I have no reason to remain in this nation. I just want to save some money and just get out.

This forum could really use some historycels.

u would think it's incel paradise being surrounded by machines instead of NPC beings, but no, it's hellish, just another nail in the celibate coffin kek

 

[Rot&Repeat]

University has been the turning point of my life for the worse. I wanted to study in a field i wanted in a nice big college with a good campus which was near where i lived but my faggot ass ethnic parents who never did college in their lives wanted me to be a doctor and made me pick another college which is an hour commute to the middle of the fucking city in a depressing urban hellscape in the middle of highways. This injustice has robbed me of my passions. I shouldve never listened to those monsters. The constant years of chemistry, biology and calculus classes has destroyed my will to live. I just wanted to do paleontology or archaeology as a major cause i had a real passion in it

I did extremely shit my first two years, so now I have to take six years to get a Bachelor's.

The new learning style along with seeing all the Chads and Tyrones take every single girl blackpilled the shit out of me and completely brutalized me. It is so much easier to get blackpilled in university than it is in high school. My brain feels like a soulless orifice now. I personally do not think university is worth it, especially because I was told to take classes that I shouldn't have, which made me have to take more years. These people are professional con artists, and they can get away with it.

Some of the girls in my uni have been nice to me, but most are extremely rude and stone cold towards me, even in group projects. Some of the girls will straight up not interact with you at ALL, even in a classroom setting, if they think you're ugly. I've said this before and I'll say it again, there were at least three instances where the girls in my group would not communicate with me no matter how much I messaged them about something within a group project, to the point where my class professor either assigned me new partners, or he emailed them something to make them communicate back with me. This problem was nonexistent with the guys in my group projects.

Outside of that, the girls are generally very rude. I've had doors slammed in my face, been ewed at, scoffed at, basically throwing a borderline temper tantrum when they have to partner with me. It's so ridiculous and immature, college girls seem to have extremely inflated egos. Latest example of this was almost a week ago when girls who were 8 feet away from me were looking at me and whispering. This rarely happened to me in high school, and the girls were much nicer to me in high school, to the point where I even had a couple of them as friends, and communicated with girls in high school informally almost on a regular basis (though they were still disgusted by the thought of having romantic relations/sex with me and looked at me as more like an asexual being). The funniest, worst, and most ironic part of this whole thing is that my university has an EXTREMELY high female to male ratio, there are like 3,000 or 4,000 more girls on my campus than there are guys. JFL.

The guys seem a bit asocial for the most part, but if there's a group project, they will help get the job done. I've never personally had a problem with the guys. On the contrary to what people say, it seems like all the guys already know each other from high school and already have defined friend groups from the second they enter university. It's kind of hard to get along with people with defined friend groups when you came from over 1,000 miles away.

TL;DR: The blackpill is much more potent and hypergamy is much more obvious. If you are below a PSL 6, chances of you getting a girlfriend in college (or even a quick fuck) is extremely low. Girls, for the most part, are absolutely horrendous to deal with and have massive egos. The guys are alright and will communicate with you like you're an actual human being. Still all around hard to make friends. Only go if you're actually looking to create a future for yourself, it's not worth it just for girls and making friends. If you aren't doing STEM, go to a trade school.

I majored in Business, because I wanted to find an occupation that paid well, and I would be around people so that I could build a social life. I never went into STEM, because I knew that I wasn't going to become a doctor, or an engineer. I almost went into law, but around my second year in university, I realized that lawyers just made the problems of society worse (that, and the fact I wasn't Jewish).

I made the right decision, I like working in marketing. My foid coworkers drive me crazy, although I can easily make like $40,000 in a year just getting hired to work on the marketing team of a single company. Currently, I am trying to get hired by a second company so that I can have even more income.

It was experience of chronic lack of sleep, travelling 3h a day, and being alone on campus during lunch times for 3 years straight. Gladly Covid came, like a gift from heaven
