I think this is the grad student equivalent of winning the lottery.
I went to speak with my advisor today about my schedule for next semester, and she tells me that she had recommended me as a TA for the upcoming semester - this is pretty surprising as the TA jobs are usually reserved for PhD students, and I'm in a Master's Program.
Soo after she approves my schedule, I head over to the TA director's office, and she hooks it up with the last available TA spot, and a cushy one at that - just a couple of discussion sections, no lab.
Ship the free tuition monies, $4500 dollar stipend, and lots of undergrad girls!!
