I built this website (Rate My Courses) ratemycourses.io and wanted to share it with students who might not be familiar with it. This is a website similar to RMP but for classes. You can use this to look at reviews and get advice on courses you're interested in taking.

And don't forget to add reviews for the courses you took or currently taking!

Yesterday I was approached by two college age girls from Pennsylvania and the UK. They seemed nice at first and didn't lead with religious talk. Then, they tried to try to pray my disability way. An incurable one I am trying to accept. Made me feel like a freak all over again. But anyways, has anyone else here been approached by people like that at Drake?

how many people attended in 2022? I want to see if my top 25 rank is meaningful or not. I’m a junior in high school

Hi Everyone,

I have been working for some time now on this website ratemycourses.io and I am really excited to share it with you.

You can use this to look at reviews and get advice on courses you're interested in. You can also sort courses by difficulty, usefulness and the overall rating from reviews made by other students. I think if enough people start using it regularly. it's going to be essential when you're choosing your electives or just to get advice on courses you will be taking.

Please let me know if there is anything that I should change or what features I should add.

Lastly, filtering and sorting courses is only gonna be useful and accurate if there are a lot of reviews, so please go ahead and leave some reviews to courses you've taken or are currently taking.

Enjoy!!

Hi r/DrakeUniversity

We are a pair of computer science graduate students at Clemson University who are studying perceptions of teamwork in online undergraduate classroom breakout rooms.

We ran a pilot study earlier this year with our own student body and would like to expand it now to other 4-year, 2-year, and online colleges/universities.

We are hoping that by posting here, more students/professors from community/technical colleges and universities in the surrounding area will see this and we can expand our participant pool.

To participate in this survey you must be one of the following:

• 18+ undergraduate student who was enrolled or currently enrolled in an a class offered via Zoom, Teams, or other video conferencing software
• 18+ professor
• 18+ graduate student teaching assistant or teacher of record

This is an institutionally approved IRB study. If there are any questions, please reach out via DMs.

Hi friends!

Please visit http://legalizeiowaletter2021.com/ and sign the newest statewide Iowa Marijuana Legalization Letter! When you’re done, please share this simple link with all your like-minded acquaintances so they can sign too. We already have at least a hundred Iowan signatures!

Most of our fellow Iowans support legalizing recreational marijuana. Legalizing cannabis in Iowa can raise money for education, keep kids safer through commercial regulation and black-market elimination, boost the Iowa economy, create jobs, reduce Iowa’s historical racial arrest disparities, and add to our civil liberties. Signing this letter is the single best thing you can do to let legislators know the time is now for Iowa to join the rest of the country in making this necessary change.

We will be sending this letter to all Iowa legislators individually later this year. This effort is brought to you by Iowa State University’s state-renowned NORML Chapter (check out these other NORML at ISU articles: (1) The Epic Iowa Saga of ‘Cy the Cyclone’ and a Most Dangerous T-Shirt, (2) ISU NORML Fought Back and Won; (3) NORML ISU Fights for Cannabis Rights and Stands Up For the First Amendment.)

Hey guys, I just got accepted into Drake University Law School. While I’m not 100% sure if I'll attended, I am interested to here what the general opinion of of Drake University, specifically Drake Law is.

Also any apartment/general Des Moines advice? Thanks Guys!

Hey all! I'm running a photography deal throughout May for seniors. $30 for 20 minutes of photos (also offer full packages/couple shots). My open days on campus are Wednesday and Thursday. Website: https://oliviafrueh.myportfolio.com/ Let me know if you would be interested!!

Hey!! So I'm an international student from Asia and I was wondering if any of you have opinions about Drake--what it's like studying there/living in Des Moines?

I'm having a dilemma between taking a risk and going there or if I should just attend a local university here!

I don't have much of a clue since there aren't as many Youtube videos or vlogs about it so any thoughts and opinions from you would be very much appreciated! ☺️ Thank you:)

Didn't expect to win but they held us back. Happy we got this far though!

Hello Bulldogs! I am a Purdue student with 2 tickets to the Drake vs Wichita State on Thursday the 18th. I am willing to trade these tickets for tickets to the MSU-UCLA game immediately after the drake game. If any of you have tickets to that game, please DM me and we can meet up in West Lafayette on gameday to exchange tickets!

As a first year I've heard quite a lot about this Griff fellow. Just to be sure, Griff is short for Griffen right? I want to make sure I make a good first impression when I meet him.

Hello! I am a student at the University of Notre Dame, and I am currently working on my thesis, “Welfare of Gender-Nonconforming Students”. This project will use a short survey and optional follow-up interview to compare the welfare of gender nonconforming students at Christian and secular colleges. I am posting here today in hopes that you might be able to assist me with distributing the survey. More specifically, would you be able to suggest any individuals at your school’s Student Government and LGBTQ+ organizations that I should contact about the survey? If so, how can I reach them? Thank you for reading, and have a wonderful day.

My son is considering this program and we're having a hard time finding anyone who has completed it. In this program you get 2 bachelor's degrees in 5 years... one from Drake and one from Wash U. You get a bachelor's degree (likely STEM) from Drake, then go to Wash U for the engineering degree. What was your experience? We're particularly interested in mechanical engineering but any comments welcome. Thanks.

Minecraft University is a thriving Minecraft and Discord server that also has lots of gaming communities including: Among Us, Apex Legends, Valorant, Cyberpunk 2077, Genshin Impact, and many more. The server is solely for university students. It is meant to be a tight-knit server with a lot of attention to a classic Minecraft experience. This is a Java server on 1.16.4 and we just started a brand new world recently, so its the perfect time to join in and make something incredible!!!

Make some new friends on this server. We already have over a thousand members and hundreds of active players!!

The semester and holidays are finally getting over and there is a pretty nice break ahead of us. I know a lot of us can use a break from family, and it's the perfect time to kick back and relax with some games and new friends.

Stay healthy out there!!!

We're starting an internship program on the farm! Starting winter / spring semester with flexible start dates. Our farm is about 20 minutes south of Half Moon Bay and 5 minutes from the ocean. We mostly grow food and raise 700+ chickens and 20 goats, and there's a lot that goes into that when starting up a farm.

The mission of the farm is to find new methods to grow organic food at scale, and collect data about water use, energy use, milk production, and egg production. We're also developing a farming robot that we hope will transform how organic food is grown. In addition to the farm related things, we also have a ceramics studio, glass furnace, gym, 3d printers, bikes, lots of musical instruments, and other fun toys that's available to anyone.

Because we hardly leave the farm, it's very safe place to be during Covid. We're hoping this can be a unique experience for interns in a time when both classes and internships are not ideal.

Whatever your interests are, I think we'd be able to find projects for you, so please reach out! There's no experience necessary. We just ask that you're excited to learn! I've learned almost everything on the job and it's been a super fun experience. Any of the tasks below we would be able to help teach you. A lot of work here is individual work, so we could show you how to do something and then you can run with it. You could also bring a friend and we could try to put you on project together.

Projects and tasks have a big range. Here's a few:

- Daily animal tasks (milk goats, feed chickens, collect and prepare eggs for sale, recording data and analyzing trends)
- Help with plant tasks (prepping the fields, planting, weeding, harvesting, installing automated valves and water sensors) 
- Set up irrigation. We have 130 acres, and only about 1/5 of it has access to water. We'd like help installing PVC pipe and hoses to reach other parts of the property 
- Set up wifi around the farm. This includes working with solar panels, batteries, and wifi software 
- Cooking meals for everybody 
- Building a deck for a lookout spot 

While these are the main, large projects, there are also lots of other smaller tasks we'd like help with which might include helping clean / organize the barn, clean out the chicken coops, or trim trees for fire wood.

Students can opt to take online classes while still working here. We have intern housing which would be a shared room with dorm bunk beds and a room with desks to study. We ask that you work 20 hours per week in exchange for housing. If you would like to work more, we pay a wage of $16 / hour. If you can't work 20 hours per week, I'm sure we could come to some agreement that makes sense. If you don't take classes, that'd be totally ok, too!

Ultimately, we hope to give students a chance to learn, work, be outside, and have an in-person social experience in a time when it is so rare. We're on 130 acres of beautiful, hilly land in a really nice and temperate part of California. We have space for about 6 people in bunk beds, so if you'd like to bring a friend or 5, we might be able to make that work!

If interested, or know somebody who might be, send me a message with some info about you and a link to your resume if possible. There's no specific experience necessary, but if you have had jobs or projects that you've done that think would make you a great candidate, I'd love to hear about it!

Hi so I’m a high school senior and I recently got accepted to Drake as a finance major. I was just wondering if Drake has good business professors and are there good job prospects for a finance major?

Please let me know

Thanks!!
