i'm so glad that in college, you only have to visit your adviser when you're required to do so - which is about once a year. this is very helpful, seeing as how advisers generally suck at advising, and the only purpose for the meeting is for you to state what you're about to do and have the adviser smile and nod (cause no way in hell she can make any sense of what you're going to do anyway... since when are sociologists compatible with physicists?!) um.. yeah ;)
