A quick definition of nixie:

Term: NIXIE

Definition: A nixie is a type of electronic device that displays numbers or letters using glowing tubes. It was commonly used in the mid-20th century in things like clocks and calculators. Think of it like a fancy digital display that uses light to show you information.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A nixie is a type of electronic display tube that was used in the mid-20th century to display numbers or letters. It consists of a glass tube filled with a gas, usually neon, and has wire mesh or metal electrodes at each end. When a voltage is applied to the electrodes, the gas inside the tube ionizes and emits light, creating the desired number or letter.

Example: A common use of nixie tubes was in digital clocks and calculators in the 1960s and 1970s. Instead of using modern LED or LCD displays, these devices used nixie tubes to display the time or calculations.

Explanation: The example illustrates how nixie tubes were used in electronic devices to display information. The gas inside the tube would light up to show the numbers or letters, making it a simple and effective way to display information before the invention of modern displays.

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.
i think it just indicates a change in status like under review or stages of review
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?
