Reply to comment by decoy1209 in Why do dead whales keep washing up in NJ? by Shawn0mara

NOAA has been studying unusual mortality events of 174 humpbacks along the entire U.S. East Coast since Jan. 2016,which pre-dates offshore wind activities in the region. Almost half of those #'s are boat related either tangled or hit.

I somewhat agree with you regarding the population increase. But also the # of people who own boats now too greatly increased in the last 10 years. People fish/pull boats right up on them for sm fame.

Reply to Princeton's cost of life by AnonymousCatnt

Your cost of living will depend on your circumstances. Are you living with someone to share rent, etc.? If not, rent will consume a substantial amount of income. Are you someone who cooks at home on a budget well or are you someone who buys coffee on your way to work, grabs takeout for lunch, and goes out for dinner most days? How will you get around the area? Will you need to factor in car payments and insurance?

Reply to NJIT or Rutgers for physics? by fancyzebras

As a professional Physicist, I'd say go where you think you'll be happiest. They're both departments of decent repute, NJIT ain't in the greatest area but it's mostly it's own little microcosm so should be fine. Live on campus though, in either case.
