block grant

Read a random definition: expectation interest

A quick definition of block grant:

A block grant is a type of money given by the government that can be used for many different things. It's like getting a big bag of money with no rules on how to spend it.

A more thorough explanation:

A block grant is a type of grant that provides federal funds to states or local governments for a specific purpose. Unlike other grants, block grants are unrestricted, meaning that the recipient has more flexibility in how they use the funds.

The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is an example of a block grant. It provides funds to states and local governments to support community development activities such as affordable housing, job training, and infrastructure improvements.

Another example of a block grant is the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. This grant provides funds to states to help families with children who are experiencing financial difficulties.

These examples illustrate how block grants can be used for a variety of purposes and give states and local governments more control over how they allocate the funds.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years

I mean if Fordham doesn't release today I will purposefully get on a train, go to new york, and then take the stinkiest shit inside the admission office's toilet (potentially clogging it and forcing them to get a plumber)
IS IT ONLY ON MY END WHY DID THAT SEND TEN MILLION TIMES
