A quick definition of poor relief:

Poor relief is a system that helps people who are struggling financially. It provides assistance such as food stamps and family allowances to those who need it. It is also known as welfare. The goal of poor relief is to ensure that everyone has access to basic needs like food and shelter. It is important because it helps people who are in difficult situations and promotes the well-being of society as a whole.

A more thorough explanation:

Poor relief refers to a system of social insurance that provides assistance to individuals who are financially in need. This assistance can come in the form of food stamps, family allowances, and other forms of financial aid.

  • During the Great Depression, the US government implemented a poor relief program called the New Deal, which provided financial assistance to millions of Americans who were struggling to make ends meet.
  • In the UK, poor relief has a long history dating back to the 16th century, when the government began providing assistance to the poor through a system of workhouses.

These examples illustrate how poor relief is a system of social insurance that provides financial assistance to those in need. During times of economic hardship, such as the Great Depression, poor relief programs can be crucial in helping individuals and families stay afloat. In the UK, poor relief has been a part of the social safety net for centuries, providing assistance to those who are unable to support themselves.

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
