SDN is pleased to announce the nontraditional's forum! This is a forum for students that are entering the health professions later in life.

This forum is intended to compliment our SDN Partner Site, http://www.oldpremeds.org originally founded by David Kelley, one of the original moderators at SDN. Please visit their site for more information about students with nontraditional backgrounds!

Yeah!

Thank you, thank you!

Thanks Lee! although I am probably one of the oldest...at the young age of 38 I feel like I am in my twenties...folks if you are applying this cycle consider Mayo. I started here yesterday and I feel so comfortable with my class! there are quite a few non-trads represented and the trads are just amazing..

I love the panda! My wife was impressed with some of the animated avatars and I tried to find a website to show her where they came from, but I couldn't. Where did you find that panda?

YAY! I will probably become a more frequent poster now.

Thanks for this forum!

How are things going Moose? How frequent do you make it into Louisiana?

You're welcome Sir Moosie! http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/aktion/action-smiley-030.gif

Sweet! Thanks. Now I have one more place to make an ass of myself.

But if you plan on it being a forum for more than one nontraditional student, the apostrophe should move to beyond the S in "nontraditionals."

"Nontraditional's Forum" = the forum that belongs to that non-traditional person over there

"Non-Traditionals' Forum" = the forum that belongs to those non-traditionals (and their obsessively correct grammar, with capitalization and hyphens and everything) :meanie:

No, it's correct. It's MY forum. I'm THE non-trad. :meanie:

The insinuation in "non-traditional's forum" is that there are many who fit the idea of "non-traditional" (hence, the word 'forum', implying more than one participants). It's like when we say "wrapping up the retired vote," even though it's in singular, we know the implication is for a plurality, just a singular population or group, and of course, more than one vote :thumbup: .


In other words, welcome. :)

I'm cool with that. You're saying the forum is, grammatically, the same as the Reader's Digest. It's the Fisherman's Friend. Fair enough.
