Back separating on acoustic

Hi all, I have a Blueridge acoustic guitar that is well loved. When I was a teenager, I dropped the guitar a few times because the bottom nut (bolt?) where the strap connects would pop out from time to time. This caused some blunt damage to the bottom edge of the guitar and I’ve recently noticed the back starting to separate from rest of the guitar. My apartment gets fairly cold in the winter and pretty hot in the summer. The damage is only on the very bottom (as seen in the photos) but you can also see where the wood itself is damaged/cracked. I’m wondering how much you think it would cost to repair this or if it is something feasible I could do myself. I haven’t “repaired” a guitar before,

Tell me about your graduate school experience

General Discussion

Hi all! I’m considering attending Northwestern University this Fall for a MS in Marriage and Family Therapy. I’d love to hear about your graduate school experience (especially if you’re in the MFT program). How do like Northwestern? How is living in Evanston? Do students tend to go out on weekends? Where do you like to go out? Would you recommend living closer to or in Chicago VS Evanston? I’m visiting Northwestern this week through Friday and based on what I’ve seen so far, Evanston is fairly quiet and I’m not getting the traditional “college town” vibe. It caught me off guard that most restaurants and bars in Evanston close by 9-10pm. Any input you have is greatly appreciated, thank you!

Unable to enroll in classes (advice needed)

Finances/financial aid

Bit of a weird situation here and I could really use some advice. I moved to Maryland from California in January of this year. Since I am not a Maryland resident yet, I cannot apply for financial aid here. So, I opted to apply for online community classes in California since I'm technically still a "resident" by definition.

I got this email on Friday denying my application to the community college in CA: " I am sorry to inform you that your application has been denied because you can’t take online classes from Maryland; we do not have authorization to do distance education with that state."

I need three classes out of the way as they are prerequisites for graduate school in the fall. I can

Narrow vs wide question (oiled leather boston)

Question

I've had a pair of suede bostons in 41 narrow for two years or so and I love them. They broke in and grew to fit perfectly. I got a new pair of oiled leather bostons for Christmas this year. They were gifted to me in 41 regular, but they seemed too wide compared to my suede bostons. I returned them and opted for a 41 narrow in the oiled leather. I'm wearing them now and they are a bit tight, I have to tap the front of my foot once on the ground to get my foot seated in the proper place. Will the oiled leather break in to be comfortable like the suede version? How tight is too tight?
