Lieutenant JGs do get quarters, O'Connor (the ascension guy) was a Lieutenant JG and had quarters. Though it's not clear if those were his own quarters or if he were sharing them with someone or not.
Spoilers Season Two Anticipation Thread
- Thread starter Sarcastic Vulcan Salute
- Start date
Mariner got her own quarters - which she was not sharing with anyone - when she was (briefly) promoted to LTJG.
didn't Sam Lavelle in the TNG episode "Lower Decks", get his own quarters when he got the promotion to LTJG?
After the finale, I am excited for Season 2. Did I read somewhere that:
Marina Sirtis will be a semi-regular next season? Is that the same with Frakes?
According to Mike McMahan, no
The showrunner has said that they don't have plans to have Marina back immediately, and only confirmed that Frakes will be back, but not how many episodes he might be back for. Unfortunately, I can't remember where I saw that he said that they couldn't yet bring Marina back, but he says in the Ready Room finale episode that Riker will be back
Well it is easy to have Frakes back. He is currently doing some work for Discovery and Picard. I'm glad they aren't going to be main characters though. They don't need to be.
Lieutenant JG is like the community college version of Lieutenant.
Instead of getting a Bachelor's (full Lieutenant), you get an Associate's (JG).
I was wondering the same thing! If I were writing fanfic that featured lower-deckers, I would inlcude lieutenants, junior grade in the lower decks category, unless they were permanently assigned to (as opposed to subbing or training in) roles that are normally carried out by higher-ranking officers. Ensign Kim wouldn't be a lower-decker, even though he's an Ensign, because he has a permanent position on the bridge.
Bachelors are Ensigns, Bachelor Hons and Masters are Lt. JG, Doctors are full Lt., Assistant Profs are Lt. Cdr., department leaders are Cdr., deans and directors are Captains...
I have a Bachelor's, you have a PhD. So I yield the floor to you.
Mariner was actually promoted to full Lieutenant, as indicated by the two solid pips on her uniform collar.

So was the other guy in an earlier episode
Later episode actually, assuming you're talking about Fletcher from Terminal Provocations.
Could easily be, episodic timelines are so much harder to remember than arcs XD
