No I don't care about your "middling R1". I'm not applying there anyway.
What top polisci departments are suspending or cutting PhD admissions for 2021?

OP is disaster prospecting.
Must be an Economics reject.What is disaster prospecting? Also, I think OP is also gonna be a poli sci reject soon
What makes you think that? Is it a crime to not be interested in getting a PhD at the University of Arizona? I believe I have better options, both in and outside academia. Sorry if your feelings are hurt by that.

Being a d0uche.bag isn’t a crime, either.

You're not just being honest. The problem is that you're being a d0uche.bag about it. I'm at HYPS and not personally offended by your "middling R1" comment, but if you start off on that foot at any program, expect to end up on your a/s/s. Graduate students talk. And if you haven't even begun and are already using phrases like "middling R1," go drink some beer.
I'm just really only interested in T25 departments and it's better to be honest than waste everyone's time

PhD from a well-below middling program (~70s) here.
OP is like that kid in my cohort from Cornell who prefaced everything with “Back in Ithaca...” and was all gung-ho about podcasts and presentation groups only to crap out and go teach debate at Ithaca College after one semester.
Good luck, OP!!

OP hasn't even been accepted to any program, let alone made it through comps, let alone completed a dissertation, let alone landed a full-time gig, and he's already putting restrictions on his choices!
If this guy isn't made for PSR bitter-ABD status, I don't know who is!

Darten here. Don't worry, you didn't hurt my feelings. But you might end up having your application be read by me. Wanna know what school it is? It's a top program and starts with an 'H.' If I come across an applicant that's too full of himself and the letters also imply so, I'll be sure to reject you.
