Erin,
I'd opt for drop and suffer in the summer, but maybe that's only because I'm
doing that. Like you, I'm on scholarship and I'm to be found in the ground
when I take more than 3 courses/semester. Wish me luck this semester,
though. I'm taking 4 regular courses and a 4-weekend seminar. In preparation
for what may well be the killer semester, I'm building up my tolerance for
alcohol. Funny, it's not that hard...
cheers,
Carol
