Exchange Joy

There are somethings as a student you'll only do while on exchange. Answering a question like this is one of them. I believe I typed this while drunk and 1 hour before the dateline.

1.1) If you give a copy of your transcript to a prospective employer, is that

information? If you show that same transcript to your dog, is it still

information?

Answer: The transcript is information to a prospective employer because in the context of employment seeking, a transcript is both useful and meaningful. The transcript will influence the employer’s decision of whether to employee me. In that way, the transcript makes a difference.

With that in mind, my dog will probably find the paper the transcript is printed on a lot more useful than the information it contains. The data presented in the transcript will neither be meaningful to my dog, nor will it make any difference in its life.
