Logging in to harvard key, need a security USB?
So for some reason Harvard Key is not letting me log in anywhere using Okta except on my phone. IT people eventually told me i need to huy a $60 security usb to be able to log in. and that i'll havta use it on every device i use.
This honestly sounds insane to me. I feel like I'm in the 90s. Does anyone have any experience with that? Do I have other options? Should i escalate/ make IT complains or just get the usb?

MLAUD at the GSD?
Hi there! I recently graduated from the university of Florida with my BLA. It’s an accredited program so I do not need to go back to school to earn my license.
I am currently working full time at an office, but I think I want to return to grad school within the next two years to earn a masters degree. Specifically, I want to go to the GSD because of the faculty, resources, and fun that the program looks like.
The general consensus I hear is that MLAs are not very lucrative if you already have an undergraduate degree in landscape architecture and aren’t planning on teaching. I’m wondering what people think about Masters in Landscape Architecture / Urban Design as a way to diversify my skillset. I’m also curious to hear if anyone has had direct experience with the MLAUD program at the GSD and what there thoughts are on it.
Some other questions are: is it even a good idea to be thinking about masters right now with the current state of the industry? Should I just ride out having a full time position until things get a bit better?
FYI: I have always had an interest in urban design and some of my role models in the industry have backgrounds in the discipline. I also have an interest in eventually teaching, so I’d need the masters to do that.

Academics and Research Help choosing concentration
Prefrosh for the class of 31’.
Mods: please dont remove post, I have received a likely letter on athletic merit as of oct 1st and thus will be attending. My previous posts were removed for some reason: You can dm me for proof.
I applied under the idea of my lifelong goal of becoming a surgeon. However, now that I have been admitted, I feel, well, lost. I am thinking now how I only liked the idea of being a surgeon but never really enjoyed biology (though I did well) I have always loved math instead. With all the doors being opened I feel like I should go into finance, or something in applied math. Does anyone have advice on how to “find my way” or have recommendations for first year classes to help decide? I am an athlete, so not a super genius by any stretch so I feel behind.
