| Feb 2, 2011 at 1:52 | comment | added | Brian Borchers | Pete- "actuarial experience" means "you wasted time working for a living rather than being a student, so you aren't sufficiently dedicated to the study of mathematics." I'm not saying that I agree with this attitude, but it's certainly an attitude that I've seen expressed in some quarters. | |
