Seneca Withdraw: Fill & Download for Free

From what I remember, Seneca recommends withdrawing from public life to study the liberal arts. It’s the kind of advice that made sense during his time, when the Roman Empire was floundering. He basically suggests that a good life is based on cultivating wisdom which can’t be done tending to the vulgar concerns of a soul-less empire. There’s definitely some relevance to that.

All the answers already here are pretty good. I would especially carefully read James Leland Harp's reply and follow what he says.What I did want to add is that usually, every admission is conditional. For instance, when you are admitted to college it usualy happens in April, but students finish high school in May. Clearly, the university assumes you will graduate from high school. Therefore, the admission is conditional on you having graduated a month after you got the letter. Etc. (Ditto for graduate programs, etc.) I like that the US system works this way instead of pedantically slogging through step by step; but it means there's a system of trust that lets things proceed in parallel.The university expects that you will make yourself aware of the admissions requirements and meet them. Look at it this way: they have hundreds or thousands of students to process; you have only one university to process. So which is the more reasonable expectation? That they notify you of everything, or that you look it up?So legally speaking, they aren't even “withdrawing” an admission. The admission is conditional on meeting requirements, so if you don't meet them, you haven't even been admitted, so there's nothing to withdraw. Indeed, if you look closely I'm sure you'll find some legal boilerplate on your letter that indicates that you are expected to have met all requirements.To conclude, go back and read the other answers and follow their advice, which is sound. However, I don't think it helps to get angry at the college, which from what I can tell is not doing anything really wrong (except maybe having screwed up processing a payment). Stay calm and approach this methodically—the same approach is going to help you in your chosen profession (paralegal) too. Good luck!

In a story line only fit for a B-rate time travel movie or terrible prime time television, the First President of the United States, George Washington, inadvertently started a series of events that would culminate with a world war and him forming a new country, United States of America.Oh George…In March of 1754, a newly promoted Lt. Col. George Washington was tasked by Lt. Governor Robert Dinwiddie of Virginia to go to the Ohio River Valley with 160 men and assist in the building of a fort. Washington was empowered to kill, capture, and harass the French and any who would oppose British rule at whim despite being ordered to “act defensively.”France sent its expedition, in turn, to demand that the British withdraw from the region and a force of 35 soldiers under Ensign Joseph Coulon de Villiers de Jumonville was sent out. They camped in a rocky ravine just a short distance from Washington’s encampment in Great Meadows, Pennsylvania who was well aware of the French presence. Washington led 40 men along with a Seneca chieftain known as the “Half-King” and 12 warriors to the French encampment to force their retreat or surrender.What happened next differs by accounts, but when Washington closed the gap between him and the French camp, shooting broke out. The battle lasted roughly 15 minutes, but at the end of it, over 13 Frenchmen were dead with 21 captured. Jumonville himself was executed by the Half-King when he walked up to him mid-conversation with Washington and struck him with a tomahawk to the head, killing him. The British had won the day.The repercussions of the Jumonville incident were widespread with Washington taking a pounding in Britain for his actions with British Statesman Horace Walpole summing up Washington’s actions best:“…a volley fired by a young Virginian in the backwoods of America that set the world on fire.”Things eventually escalated to the point that France and Britain came to blows and started the Seven Years War which was arguably the world’s second world war and altered the balance of power in the world. The cost of the war was substantial, and Britain thought it prudent to tax the Colonies that they had just defended in their conflict.As history played out, the colonists took exception to these added levies and eventually rebelled against the Crown itself.The leader in this newfound rebellion? The same man who had just started the war that brought the taxes that led to said rebellion.Talk about irony.
