I am applying for a Post-doc position that we were told about earlier today.
What is your overall impression about the uni, and the city?

Overall, for graduate studies, I would say that the university is very strong. I know my department (which is sadly outside of the sciences, so likely not very helpful for you) is very strong, and a friend's husband used to work in Anatomy as a professor and said that it was a good place to work from his perspective.

The city is small, but it thinks it's big. There is pretty good nightlife, though it's still not much. The weather is much milder than the rest of Canada because of the ocean, and the actual countryside etc. is stunning. Overall it's an alright place to live, some people love it to the point where they never want to leave again, others find it too small.

I just found some old magazines, it brings back great memories of my past, when I was a model.

Sounds great. It is too cold here in London, the lake's effect is brutal in the winter which is a big turn off. I am already reading through the Chemistry department at Dal, it sounds good. I will apply and hopefully I get the position. Thanks for the info :tup:
P.S It would be refreshing to live by the ocean

Good luck with it. And do let me know if you come visit, I'd be happy to show you the two or three nice places to go.

Some saddlebags are just too damn big for the motorcycle, I'm sorry.

Funny -- when you wrote "Texas de Brazil", immediately "Cheesecake Factory with a Brazilian accent" came up in my head...
