A quick definition of FMCS:

FMCS stands for Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. It is an organization that helps people and companies solve problems and disagreements by talking and finding solutions together. They are like a referee in a game, making sure everyone plays fair and finds a way to win together.

A more thorough explanation:

FMCS

FMCS stands for Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. It is a government agency that helps resolve disputes between employers and employees.

When a company and its workers can't agree on things like wages or working conditions, they might ask FMCS to help them find a solution. FMCS mediators will meet with both sides and try to help them come to an agreement that works for everyone.

For example, if a group of factory workers are unhappy with their pay and decide to go on strike, FMCS might step in to help negotiate a new contract between the workers and the company. The mediators might suggest compromises, such as a small pay increase or better benefits, that both sides can agree on.

Another example might be if a company is planning to lay off a large number of workers, but the workers feel that the layoffs are unfair. FMCS could help the company and the workers come up with a plan that is more equitable, such as offering early retirement packages or retraining programs for the affected workers.

These examples illustrate how FMCS works to find solutions that are fair and reasonable for both employers and employees. By bringing both sides together and helping them communicate effectively, FMCS can often help avoid costly and disruptive strikes or legal battles.

Do the admissions offices close on Veterans Day?
I think someone here was really interested in Cornell Law. I forgot their username now but I just talked to the Cornell admissions rep at the Houston LSAC fair and apparently 2/3 of people who interview at Cornell ultimately get in.

I wonder what it’s dependent on? Are the 2/3 chosen on stats, or interview performance, or more holistically?
I'm honestly not sure

Funniest shit about Oppenheimer to me was some chick at the end of the movie saying dead serious to her boyfriend "That movie was kinda boring, I wish there were more explosions". Like she wanted us to bomb Japan harder or something. It was such an awkward thing to say and it made me laugh.
