Masters in Biomedical Sciences program.

Hello everyone, I’m applying to masters programs and I stumble across UNCO MBS, is anyone on here enrolled in this program. I have a few questions, also is there any social life in Greeley? I’ve always wanted to move to Colorado, I’m from Nevada. Anyone have anything to say about Greeley?

New subreddit for Colorado climate change impacts and efforts - r/ClimateCO

Hi all,

I got the idea to do this by seeing someone posting in my local city thread, asking about Pueblo as a climate refuge. People sometimes frame climate change as an issue of mostly rising sea levels, rising temps and maybe some more wildfires. There are many more impacts, and Colorado faces a challenging future. I want current and potential future Coloradans to have access to quality info about those challenges, and about the work being done to manage them.

If that's of interest to you, head over to check it out and contribute content if so moved. Please also share with others who may benefit. Goal is to get good, timely CO-specific info out there (reliable news, studies, reports) as well as to give people a place to discuss what they are seeing where they are. Lotta change ahead for Colorado and everywhere else, but an informed community will handle things better than one caught unawares.

Thanks!

Music & Music Education Majors

Hey everyone! I'm looking to attend UNC for jazz piano after I'm done with my gap year. The large vocal jazz community is also a draw, as I enjoy arranging tunes for jazz combos and voices. For all you music and music education majors, what has your experience been like here? UNC is known for a great education program. With that being said, do you find noticeable differences in the quality of instruction between music education, performance, and composition? Has your experience been worth it, or do you recommend I look elsewhere for music? Thank you :)

Left Handed desks?

I have two classes in Michener L110 this semester and for the life of me can't seem to find a left handed desk in the entire room.

Does anyone know if they actually exist and can tell me where they are?

COVID vaccine requirement

UNC’s COVID vaccine requirement seems really pointless. They’re saying it’s required, but then they’re saying that even when it gets full FDA approval, people can still get nonmedical exemptions. I get it if there are people with medical restrictions and/or strict religious beliefs, that’s fine, but they’re allowing people to be exempt from getting the vaccine if they say that it’s against their personal beliefs. All that means is that the anti-vaxxers who go here are just gonna say that it’s against their beliefs because they don’t believe in being microchipped or something, and UNC is just gonna let it slide. So they say it’s a vaccine requirement, but it’s not actually gonna be required for the people who have been refusing to get the vaccine for completely BS reasons.

UNCO wells fargo card

Is it worth it and/or actually useful to connect my UNC card to a Wells Fargo account? I already have a checking account at another bank, but since UNC offers the service anyway, I'm thinking about it.

Incoming freshman question

Hello! I am an incoming freshman psychology major. I was hoping that a current student would tell me how easy/hard it is to miss classes. Are there any classes that have mandatory attendance in order to pass? How do you get “excused” from being in class? How many missed days of class is considered “too many”? Also, when are midterms normally scheduled during the first half of the school year? Thanks in advance!

Edit- I am not planning on skipping class for no reason, I love school and I understand that I am paying a lot of money to be there. However, I have a trip planned (7 days, first semester) and was wondering if my absences would have a profound impact on my grades. Thank you to everyone that responded.

Best way to find a roommate?

Hey, I'm trying to find a roommate right now and was wondering if there's any good free websites online to find someone? I'm an upcoming freshman so I need to live on campus but don't want a random roommate.

Application

Hi! I’m a junior in high school and I want to go to UNC. I have bad test anxiety and not great in math, so I have a feeling I will get a 1000-1100 on my SAT (I take on April 27). Do I still have an okay chance at getting in? I do extracurricular activities and I have pretty good grades. I hope my SAT score doesn’t prevent me from getting in. Thanks 😊

Good study spaces?

My first semester here was last Fall, so with all of the COVID restrictions, I've only been on campus a total of maybe 6 times. Next semester (hopefully) will be back to normal and I'll basically be living in Ross Hall and Michener. Anyone have favorite study places? Or know if there even are any?

Anyone in the Denver/Lowry Counseling Program who can share what the weekend class setup is like?

Hi there! I'm looking at going back to school for a second master's to change careers to counseling. I currently work full time from home, and I'm looking at the UNCO Counseling program that is held in intensive weekends - my question is: what are those weekends like? Do you find it tough to spend multiple weekends a year in class plus a full time job during the week?

Honestly, I'm leaning more towards an online program or something with evening classes as a result of the weekend setup - but I also like this UNCO program.

UNCO Student Engagement and Experience - Survey

Hello, UNCO community! I am currently working on this independent survey to understand better what first-year and transfer students experience during their new institution's initial year. I would genuinely appreciate it if you could take this survey and tell me how you are doing or how you did during that time of your life. I believe there should be more resources for students' integration, especially when they come in. It will take you less than a minute. Thank you!

Where do y'all get school apparel?

I've been really wanting to get some school hoodies/shirts/etc. But the bookstore prices are INSANE and Amazon has given me zilch. Is there somewhere around town that has better prices?

Inter-collegiate Chess Competitions

Aight so I'm in the middle of organizing a chess club on campus right now for both CU and UCCS (and reaching out to du and csu) seeing as a lot of people are in this post queen's gambit mood, and pairing that with the fact both places have like a tabletops club but not a specific chess club, I've already received a few dms to get a discord group going so that peers can start some stuff offline and then when clubs come back we can meetup on campus for some games and maybe even hold like some less serious tournaments between campuses. I wanted to see if there was any interest in something like that from up for you guys at UNC where anyone wanted to have matches against us either as individuals or teams once we get going. There's always in city clubs, but usually the age gap range is so broad I find it that others and myself tend to relate better to people in college...

Today is THE day, GO VOTE!

Slightly modified from my post on r/Greeley

Hello fellow Bears, as you know, today is the day to go vote for a number of important issues including local issues, amendments to our state constitution, legislative representation, and of course for the President. I thought I'd write some info up so all of you can get out your vote!

If you have your ballot but still need to vote There are several drop boxes. They are available until 7 PM tonight. The easiest thing to do is to drop off your ballot that was mailed to you at a 24-hour drop box. Below is a list of them around Greeley, but you may find the University Center is the is most convenient!

Other local drop boxes open until 7 PM Aims College Cornerstone Building at 5401 W 20th St, Greeley (It is basically a drive-up box, also an in-person voting space) Evans Community Complex 1100 37th St, Evans Greeley City Hall 1000 10th St, Greeley (another drive-up box) Trinity Lutheran Church/School 3000 35th Ave, Greeley (also an in-person voting space) UNC Campus Commons 1051 22nd St, Greeley (also an in-person voting space) UNC University Center 2101 10th Ave, Greeley (another drive-up box) Weld County Election Office 1400 N 17th Ave, Greeley (also a drive-up box) Weld County Training Center 1104 H St, Greeley (also an in-person voting space)

If you can’t find your ballot, need to register to vote, or would prefer to vote in person. There are several Voter Service and Polling Centers around the area. They are available until 7 PM tonight, if you are in line at 6:59 PM, they will let you vote even if it's after 7 PM. Be sure to do some research or print off a sample ballot which can be found http://weldvotes.com/to use as a reference while voting. You shouldn’t use your phone while voting. The best location for UNC students is probably the Campus Commons.
