Thoughts from Music Majors?

I'm a prospective music education major from out of state (choral emphasis). I just want to hear from current music majors about the environment and how y'all feel about the program.

Free parking

Is there spots other than Starbucks that you can park near that is free. Im a bike most days but sometimes I want to park and I don't mind the walk. Last year I used the bus but this year I want to start using my car.

Super Political Professors?

I just started at CWU and I'm curious. Are there any super left wing or super right wing politically motivated professors or classes that could be seen as "persuading" students world views or the dreaded "if you don't believe what I believe you'll fail this class" type of professors?

Connection cards

Hi I’m a sophomore this year and I’m wondering if we get new connection cards per year or just hang on to our old ones? The only reason I ask is that my card no longer unlocks the door to my work so I’m wondering if it’s an issue with an old card or if my work changed it somehow. I will be asking when I go in today but I’m just wondering!

Phishing attempt

I just want to give everyone a heads-up that there's a phishing attempt going on around CWU. Last night, I got an e-mail titled "NOTICE OF TERMINATION FROM THE ADMIN" originating from what is obviously a student's compromised account. The message states:

"We notice that your office 365 has two different logins with two universities' portals. Kindly Indicate the two info logins as soon as possible. To avoid termination within 24hrs, we expect you to adhere and address it Click Here To Verify Your Account"

The link apparently goes to a scammy form that asks for your personal information. CWU would never send an e-mail like this. If you receive this e-mail, do not click on the links. Report it as phishing.

Class meeting times still TBA

Two of my classes are online for fall quarter. On mycwu, they still have days and times that are TBA. My other two in person classes obviously have posted their schedule. I’m getting anxious about this because my work needs my availability and idk when there will be zoom lectures, if at all. Anyone know when they will come up with the days and times, or if? My partner said they might be totally asynchronous.

SolidWorks Textbook

Maybe a long shot but I took SolidWorks taught by Bramble back in 2019 and I remember the textbook being really helpful and part of a series. Does anyone here happen to know what textbook that class used/uses?

Deconstruction Community

Does anyone know of any community spaces for Atheists or Agnostics to connect with other ex-Christians who are deconstructing their faith? I know the Unitarian Universalist church exists and I have been a couple of times, I just haven't found it helpful for some reason. I think students and adults at CWU or elsewhere in Ellensburg could benefit from a community like this, I know I would have benefitted from it during my college years.

Warning: Do not go to Counseling Services unless you are mentally stable. If you are mentally unwell, have mental/behavioral diagnoses or have trauma/SI/HI just go to the hospital or call 988

TW: suicide attempt (I'm okay now), medical invalidation

I am not trying to slander CWU. They have done good things for my life. But I believe it's important to speak up even if they truth isn't always pretty. I hope this helps someone. I wouldn't say "don't go to CWU" for it but I would say if you have serious mental health problems, anything in the DSM, to stay away from their counseling. Go to the hospital instead. Or call 988. I say this as a previous student. I had several experiences with the counseling services team when I was there on and off 2019-2023. This is not just a CWU thing, it happens at a lot of schools and colleges but my worst experiences ever were here.

I tried to seek therapy or even just crisis management mulitple times when I was there. After a few times of being dismissed for have problems that were "too difficult" all I really hoped to get out of them was help with transferring care to someone who was qualified. But they don't do that either.

Event:

The worst was right after an attempt. I was scared, and feeling the effects of it both mentally and physically for which I was not assisted with in getting any medical attention for. I should have gone to the hospital anyway but I was scared. I was so scared. I talked to a junior therapist about it and she was concerned but not prepared to deal with it for some reason so she got her boss who called someone from the state to talk to me. It was all very bureaucratic. I was scared and lied and said I wasn't in danger anymore. They scared me with being held in a mental hospital against my will. I didn't know what would happen to me in there. I shouldn't have lied but I wasn't as brave back then. I texted my old therapist who I had bonded to off-the-clock and she called them. I remember them being very dismissive, which fell in line with how I had felt previously. She told me, and said I wasn't supposed to say this to their face (but it's been some time now so I don't really care besides none of this should be very identifying as I have heard mulitple stories from others that similar things have happened to them), but that the boss guy said something like "she's faking it/making it up". oh yeah, they also misgendered me lol, although that is typical in medical fields regardless. I don't remember what was said exactly as my memories always get a little fuzzy when I have something traumatic happen. Luckily I had some friends that kept an eye on me, and even disposed of my methods with my consent and supervision, but it was very touch-and-go for a while.

I didn't really speak up until now because I have only just gotten mentally stable and there is a lot of work left to do, but I actually felt "homesick" today. I didn't know that mentally stable people still had to get mental health care, but after feeling safe and loved enough by someone to actually feel the physical effects of missing them I can say I would like to talk to someone about it even though it isn't "that big of a deal". I do think the counseling services are great for that stuff, but as far as anything more serious than that AVOID.
