What the heck did I watch last night?

Is this really the best that we can do of what is probably the biggest game of the year?

Brings back vibes of the Kevin Sumlin days lol

Is there a way to look up for the syllabus before enrolling for classes in spring 2025?

I have looked everywhere and I couldn't find any information about PHYS 110 labs.

Management of expectations…(Update & vent)

As an update to my last post with this same title, I have a major update that I need to vent about so that I can move on. My family obligations that I mentioned at the end of my last post have been updated to become an ultimatum that now has killed my new dream of returning to the U of A.

It has now come to pass that I need to use the funds, that I was going to have to use to reattempt this dream, to settle a debt that has apparently become overdue. Negotiations were attempted but failed. This has now lead to additional stresses to the Holiday Season but those emotions are separate that this.

I have a question: since I am certain that this dream is now dead, would it be a symbol of closure to chop up my old CatCard into fine bits and spread them, like ashes, at different buildings on campus? [Technically I would prefer to dump into ashtrays instead of the ground. Possibly more symbolic that way.]

Dear reader, thank you for getting this far. I just need to vent about what I am feeling so that it doesn’t consume me. Apologies for being a downer.

Anyone going to the game vs ASU today? My friend I was gonna go with got COVID

Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone is going to the game against ASU today and would wanna bring me along? I was gonna go with one of my buddies today but he caught COVID recently, and everyone else I know is out of town for the Thanksgiving holiday. I'd love to go to the game but I'd much prefer not going alone lol.

I'm a current junior here at the U of A and I'm a passionate college (and pro) football fan so I'd love to talk about anything and everything, as well as other sports and hobbies too. Thanks!

How Safe is UofA's Campus and What is the Indian Community Like?

Hi everyone!

I’m considering attending the University of Arizona for APME and wanted to get some firsthand insights about two things:

  1. Campus Safety: How safe do you feel on campus, especially in the evenings or in less crowded areas? Are there any specific safety tips or precautions you'd recommend? I’ve heard that Tucson isn’t the safest city, and I’m a bit concerned as a prospective student. If I mostly stay on campus and avoid venturing outside much, would it be safe? How do students generally feel about safety on campus?
  2. Indian Community: I'm Indian and curious about how active the Indian student community is. Are there cultural organizations or events to connect with others? How easy is it to find Indian food or groceries around campus?

I’d love to hear about your experiences and any advice you might have for a prospective student. Thank you!

Would it be more beneficial to do a Math Minor or Computer Science Minor with Information Science?

Would it be more beneficial to do a Math Minor or Computer Science Minor with Information Science?

My assumption that the Information Science major will include ample programming and thought maybe I should swap my CS minor with a minor in math as it may be more helpful long term.

Winter: BIOC 384i (Foundations of Biochemistry online)

Hello! 

I was wondering if anyone has taken BIOC 384i (Foundations of Biochemistry online) with Roger L. Miesfeld over the winter session?

He has good reviews on Rate My Professor, and it sounds like it’s a relatively easy A, unlike the biochems offered at my school (NAU). 

I’m just wondering if anyone has taken it specifically over the very condensed winter session?

If so, do you recommend the course? Is it a manageable workload/feasible to get an A as long as I am not taking any other classes/working at the same time? 

Thank you!! :)

Struggling horribly with Math 100

I started high school learning math online because of covid, and feel like I was never able to develop a good foundation for algebra. Now I’m struggling with math 100 and luckily I get to retake the final but have to place into math 112 as this is my last chance. I’m extremely nervous about it, does anyone have any advice or recommendations? I’d love to hear any, thanks!

Help me choose between these apartments.

Hello, everybody. I’m looking for a one-bedroom or studio apartment. I have a car, so I’m willing to drive 20–25 minutes. I currently have these three on my list: Lantana Apartments, Agave 350, and Broadway Village Apartments. Do any of you have experience with these places? If you have other recommendations, please let me know. My budget is around $1,200, and my only requirement is that it has to be safe. Thank you!

Montana Lemonious-Craig not playing much

Does anyone know why Montana is not playing much this year? I thought he was a go-to player last season but he seems to only get put in for a play or two per game now.

Are there any quiet places to study that don’t close at 6pm

It shouldn’t even be legal to charge this much tuition for a school that can’t even keep its libraries open

Things to do off campus?

I have been officially admitted into UofA with the school being my Top 3 choice.

I love everything about the school and have heard very good things about it from family alumni and friends who currently go there.

I just wanted to ask what do you guys like to do off-campus? Tucson doesn't seem like theres a lot to do. Is it often that students find things to do in phoenix? Or what are some things you guys like to do in Tucson.

There is a long line of people with pillows and sleeping bags sitting outside. Looks like they are spending the night.

Difficult time with my decision

I always knew i wanted to be a studio art major. But now that Im here, It’s kind of scary. Being an artist has always been a very unstable career and now AI is doing a lot of the work for us. Im also planning on minoring in japanese since it only takes one class. But i also want to learn to be an animal caretaker. None of these things are very profitable… but im no good at anything else. I tried IT in high school, but had to drop out of the program the last year because I just wasnt picking anything up. Im good at biology but, Imagining myself going into a career like that, I can only picture day after day of depression. Idk what to do. This is my third year here. I dont have much time left especially since i receive funding from the va to be here. Aaaa

Thoughts on the Information Science Program? (B.S. Data Science Emphasis)

Hello everyone!
I am changing my major next semester and am considering the Information Science department. I love the Natural Language processing course I have taken so far and am planning to take CSC/LING/ISTA 439 in the Spring alongside some other programming courses.

What are the major differences between them and similar majors such as Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or the Statistics and Data Science majors? For those currently/past enrolled in the department, what are your thoughts?

good minors to declare as a medicine major with a biochem minor already

Hello! I’m an honors student majoring in medicine with a minor in biochemistry, and I was wondering if anyone knows of a good minor to pursue that would work great for double dipping. I would have honestly double majored in psio and mcb if I had known it was a good idea back in my first semester, but here we are. I’m on track to graduate a year early as well, which relates to why I can’t just switch majors, etc. at this point. I’m taking 18 credits next semester, then 15 and 16 for my final year.

Anyway, with double dipping I added a biochemistry minor since I only need to take 6 additional credits. Are there any other minors anyone recommends ? Thanks!!
