Defamacast is when someone says something untrue about another person on TV or radio, which hurts their reputation. This is a type of defamation, which means saying something false that harms someone's reputation. Defamation can be written (called libel) or spoken (called slander). If the statement is about something important to the public, the person who said it must prove it's true or they can get in trouble. Trade defamation is when someone says something false that hurts a business's reputation.
A more thorough explanation:
Defamacast means to defame someone through television or radio broadcast. It is a form of defamation, which is when someone makes a false statement that harms another person's reputation. For example, if a news anchor reports false information about a celebrity that damages their reputation, it could be considered defamacast. This word was first used in a court case in 1962.

The "date changes" at Michigan really don't mean anything. We had to do them in undergrad admissions whenever a Georgia applicant picked the country instead of the state, because we'd have to remove the TOEFL requirement and reassign the application from the international application readers.

Classy, does that mean they may look at your application, and that look doesn't necessarily trigger any date change?

@soapy: I don't know for sure about the law school. For undergrad, once the application is complete, it's assigned to a reader the following Monday. If we had to make any changes, it's because a reader saw something that needed to be changed and the application needed to be re-read after that change.

You're welcome. FWIW, I have no idea what's up with the address changes. We didn't have to do any of that, except for the Georgia state vs country kinds of things.

I've heard it theorized that some schools will change the address from "St." --> "Street" as they prepare to send out admissions packets. That's the rumor, anyways.
my stanford address went long as soon as it was marked complete lmao

I saw some Reddit adcom say that they can see any time we refresh the status checker; I wonder if it's a red flag if an applicant's checked it like 50 times in a day?

Also, can we send another LoR to a school that we've already applied to?
