Since there's no posts here yet, I figure I'll write something. My Reddit account is nearing 12 years and our little community over there sincerely means a lot to me.
I've made close, lifelong friends through meetups and events. I've tried countless local restaurant & bar recommendations, found events & entertainment I'd never have thought to seek. My perspectives changed,... Hell, my life changed. I've found quite literally, a home through /r/bostonhousing. I've met kind travelers - who later invited me to tour their cities in reciprocity.
Having Apollo and RIF shut down is tough because it's how I interacted with my community for so many years. Not just our city, but hobbies - I found fellow music nerds, producers and collaborators that helped kickstart my creative career. Even a little studio internship.
I'm not sure what happens next - if Lemmy would even take off, or if I'll end up biting my tongue.
Either way, just saying a friendly "hi" and "fuck you" to kick shit off.
A university is a typically a collection of colleges (or schools).
For example: Harvard University is made up of Harvard College, Harvard Business School, Harvard Divinity School, Harvard Kennedy School, Harvard Law School, Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, etc.
For all intents and purposes - we use the word “college” and “university” interchangeably because they’re the same level of education. Either can do associates through doctoral.
Community colleges, however, only focus on 2 year degrees and certain certifications.
