willful indifference to the safety of others

Read a random definition: lump-sum payment

A quick definition of willful indifference to the safety of others:

Willful indifference to the safety of others means that someone intentionally disregards the safety of others and doesn't take proper care to prevent harm. This is more serious than just making a mistake or being careless. It can include things like knowingly putting others in danger or not doing anything to stop a dangerous situation. It's important to always prioritize safety and take responsibility for our actions to prevent harm to others.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Willful indifference to the safety of others means intentionally or recklessly disregarding the safety of others, such as failing to take reasonable steps to prevent harm or ignoring a known danger.

Examples:

  • A driver who knowingly drives under the influence of drugs or alcohol, putting other drivers and pedestrians at risk.
  • An employer who fails to provide safety equipment or training to employees, despite knowing the risks of the job.
  • A property owner who ignores a hazardous condition on their property, such as a broken staircase, and does not take steps to fix it or warn visitors.

These examples illustrate willful indifference to the safety of others because the individuals or entities involved knew or should have known that their actions or inactions could cause harm to others, but chose to disregard the risks and prioritize their own interests instead.

it's hard to say but i've also heard that the group interview is harder to get than the alumni interview. but who really knows tbh

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
