Algebra Tears

Studied really hard for my first algebra test just to get a 76- I want all A's so bad and I was getting 100s on all the homework and study guides- I'm not looking for advice I already emailed the professor and I'm going to practice even more during unit 2- How do y'all deal with defeat when you expected a good grade and how do I not envision my grad school chances evaporating with every score below an A (bio major freshman, vet school hopeful)

Considering GSU vs. KSU for CS—Need Insights on AI, Night Classes, & Clubs!

Hey y’all,

I’m a transfer student from Atlanta Technical College, currently studying CS. I just got accepted into KSU for Fall 2025, went on a campus tour, and really liked the vibe. But I’m still weighing my options—I already live in the city, and the idea of just walking or hopping on MARTA to GSU is super convenient.

So, for those of you at GSU’s CS program, I’ve got a few questions:

  • How’s the CS department? Overall experience, professors, career support, etc.
  • Do they offer night classes? I work full-time, so flexibility is key.
  • Any cool CS-related clubs? Looking for networking and hands-on projects.
  • Does GSU have an AI concentration? One thing I really liked about KSU’s CS program is their AI track, which focuses on Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and NLP. Does GSU offer something similar for undergrads?
  • Double Majoring in CS (AI) + Math (Applied or Stats): Planning to do this at KSU—would love to do the same at GSU. Any insights?

Any advice or personal experiences would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance. 🙌

What is the system for retaking classes at GSU?

I want to retake 3 classes despite getting A’s in all of them. My reason being that all these classes are a significant part of my major. I want to strengthen my understanding of those subjects even better. 😭 I heard from someone that they are retaking a class even though they got an A, and it’s actually counting towards their credits?? And my main concern is if they count towards my credits, because I don’t want to waste money.

Kitchen at Piedmont Central?

My son will be a freshman and is interested in Piedmont Central for housing. The other day we were looking and found a floor plan that had a living room and kitchen. Today all I see is the one where there are two bedrooms and then a shower and a toilet room. Are there full apartments with kitchens available there for freshman? Thank you.

Has anyone used the professional headshot service on main campus?

I was thinking about driving into Atlanta to get one of those professional headshots that the career center (I think it's them?) offer, but I've never done it before. Have any of y'all used it? Is there anything I should do to be prepared? Like should I come in dressed business casual or would they have professional clothes there for me to throw on? Any insight helps, thanks!

Any other commuters¿

Hey everyone, I’m a senior in my last semester at GSU (M21), and I commute from Alpharetta. I’d love to meet other commuters and maybe find some people to hang out with between classes or even carpool occasionally.

Anyone else commuting? Where from? Let’s connect!

Judgement

Y’all ever feel judged from someone else, just cause you have different interests from one another? Even when trying new things? I recently joined club meetings, went to the involvement fair & did fitness classes at the rec center, then some of the ppl there be like “so what brought you into it?” “What type of music you listen to?” “Show me” where they got me in an uncomfortable situation trying take my time to explain my personal things. Then they act like they don’t want me to fit in just cause I’m the same as usual whenever I’ve been busy focusing on schoolwork, prioritizing career.

My band (RCHP/Alice In Chains/Creed/dad rock) is looking for a guitarist or bassist around Lawrenceville/Winder area!

(Posting this here bc I also go to GSU hehe)

My band is tentatively looking for a bassist and/or guitarist right now. Our sound is very much leaning on the vein of 90’s-classic rock. We’ve put out one song song so far, and that’s the kind of sound we usually lean towards, but obviously are not limited to:

https://open.spotify.com/track/1tbckMeN1V903hdF7qUODf

I play guitar but can also play bass as well, so we’re open to either. My lead guitarist plays guitar but also plays drums. We’re also about 20 to 26 in age range as well. Right now, one of our biggest concerns is having a space to practice, so if you have that space, it’s a huge plus. We would love to hear back from any and everyone! Please shoot me a message or leave a comment, we’d love to start playing shows and doing some great things together!!!

Met a guy at the Single’s Inferno Mixer‼️Help Please‼️

Hey, I was at the Emory/GT ASO Single Inferno event this Thursday and met an Asian guy who came with his two friends. I was with a friend who was wearing a red coat and had a bob and I was wearing an off-shoulder red top and black pants, and I was super nervous since it was my first time at a club! We talked for a bit, but the music was so loud I could barely hear anything and I didn’t even get his name even though it was like the beginning of the event. Like literally 30 minutes in at like 10:30. I am pretty sure you were wearing like a red jersey with a number but i dont know how much that narrows this down. We got introduced by a friend and you told your friend to come up to me saying you thought I was cute. I thought you were cute too and got really flustered, and I feel bad because I was trying to talk to you but i was just super overwhelmed in the environment. Unfortunately I couldn’t remember much afterwards. I’d love to reconnect if you’re interested—feel free to reach out, even if it’s just to be friends!

Heya alll

Hey, I’m an international student, and it’s been seven months now, but I still haven’t really found my people here. It gets lonely sometimes, and I’d love to meet someone to share good conversations, go on outdoor adventures, grab a drink, or just have a meal together. If you’re looking for a friend too, I’d love to connect.

New Semester, New Friends?¿

Hey everyone!

I’ve been in the U.S. for about 6-7 months now, and while college has been great, it’s also been pretty lonely. As an international student, making friends hasn’t been the easiest, so I’m hoping to change that!

If you’re someone who: Wants a study buddy for library sessions (so we can pretend to be productive together). Enjoys coffee runs, chill hangouts, and random deep convos. Is always down for food adventures and exploring the city.

Then we should totally be friends! I’m just looking for some genuine connections—people to share laughs, study sessions, and maybe even a little bit of academic suffering with. We can start a group chat on Instagram, share socials, and get to know each other before meeting up.
