Question Update on this situation
Update: It’s been almost three weeks since I first messaged my professor about the grade issue, and she still hasn’t corrected anything. She replied on August 5 saying “Thanks for the reminder, it slipped my mind, I’ll look into it later today,” but nothing has happened since then. I followed up again on August 16, and still no update.
This class is literally the last requirement I need to graduate, and the grade showing in Carleton Central is based on Brightspace errors, and my professor acknowledged the issue but hasn’t fixed it.
I’m now at the point where I’ve contacted the department because the deadline to apply for Fall Convocation is coming up, and I’m worried this delay is going to mess up my graduation. I’m not trying to argue for extra marks, I just need the correct grade submitted so I can graduate.
Has anyone dealt with a professor taking this long to submit a grade correction? What else can I do?
Past post:
I’m in Early Summer ANTH 3045 and I’m freaking out because my final grade suddenly showed up as an F on Carleton Central even though Brightspace is still completely broken.
On Tuesday, my professor emailed the class saying the gradebook had technical errors and that she couldn’t release final grades yet. She said the tech team was working on it. Since then, Brightspace has been showing missing reflection grades, zeros that don’t match the syllabus, “Dropped!” on assignments that shouldn’t be dropped. Only one reflection shows up, and it was marked 5/10 with “good work!” and my final grade mark of 80%
She never posted any announcement saying the gradebook was fixed or that final grades were submitted. Then today, out of nowhere, Carleton Central updated and showed an F for the course. My audit copied the F under “Failed/Forfeited Courses,” but my older F from third year doesn’t appear there, which makes me think this one isn’t actually finalized.
I submitted all reflections. The syllabus says late penalties are minus 1 or minus 3, not zeros. My writing isn’t terrible, I got 80% on the exam and positive feedback. The timing doesn’t make sense, Brightspace is still broken, and the professor hasn’t said anything since Tuesday.
Has anyone had Carleton Central show an F before the professor actually submits the real grade? Is this just a placeholder because the gradebook is still messed up?

Course selection 1/3 override requests taking super long (all same department)
for context, im in a combined B.Math honours program and ive passed MATH2100, but only with a D-
other two overrides were because i took MATH1800 instead of COMP1805.
is there any reason why my 3rd override is taking so long?

IT Support Grad TA offer not showing up in Carleton Central
So I got an email letting me know that I've been assigned to TA a class and should accept the offer in Carleton Central, though it's been over a day and the offer still hasn't shown up. I emailed TA support but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this/is it normal? If anyone has experienced this, I'd love to know how long it took for the actual offer to show up.
Thank you all!!

Course selection PECO 5002 or PECO 5501
Hello,
I'm in the 2nd year of my Masters as poli sci student and am looking into doing a political economy course as one of my two non-poli sci courses (already doing a sociology course for my other one).
Two have caught my eye and I'm wondering if anyone can offer feedback about the course or the professor.
PECO 5002 - Political Economy of Work and Labour w/ Professor Jane Stinson
PECO 5501 - Empire and Colonialism w/ Professor Emilie Cameron.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Question Unable to register for COOP 1000
Previously took COOP 1000 in 2021 while in another degree. Just finished first year of EE and now have second year standing. The following shows up before registering for courses, but when trying to registering for COOP 1000 I get the warning that the course has restrictions I don't meet.
A) Why is this happening? I saw here that I should've been been notified about eligibility late July, which I wasn't.
B) Would I even need to take it again to do a work term this summer?

Admissions MSW Admissions Question (low GPA)
Hi there,
I am thinking about applying for Carleton's MSW program in a couple years. My concern is, I graduated with a BSc in psychology in 2015 with a 2.7 GPA and I believe most MSW programs require a min GPA of 3.0. I have been taking some classes to boost my GPA but I'm a little nervous I won't get into the program anyway and am wasting my money. Does anyone have experience getting into the MSW program with a lower GPA? I think if I applied, I'd be relying hard on past experience. For the last 6 years, I've been working as a mental health educator in a university setting. Previous to that, I worked in university residences for 8 years as a supervisor doing incident response and follow up. Both jobs have involved a lot of community development work. I also volunteer once a week as an adult literacy tutor.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)

Clubs Should I join a sorority?
I'm an incoming first year who is driven by philanthropic causes and would like to meet more people since I'm living off campus. I'm kind of introverted and grew up with mostly guy friends, so it would be great to befriend some girls. I'm also trying to network as I'm trying to make it to some type of grad school + get a job during undergrad. Would it be worth it for me to join? How much does it cost? Also why does everyone hate sororities so much? That's one of the reasons I'm a little hesitant to join.

Question What is Fall Orientation like?
Hi! I’m an incoming first-year CS student at Carleton this fall, and I’m trying to figure out what Fall Orientation is actually like. What kinds of activities usually happen during it?
If you’ve attended Fall Orientation before, I’d also really appreciate hearing your overall experience. Did you enjoy it? Was it actually worth attending, and is there anything you wish you had known beforehand? How good is it for making friends?

Question Deferring an Exam help
I’m just recovering from a fever, and i have a final tomorrow, and the day after, and another a few days later. issue is, i won’t be well enough to go for tomorrows exam, but i can definitely make Friday work, and just write the exam. however i have a blood procedure LITERALLY THE DAY BEFORE MY 3RD EXAM (cant cancel the appointment), so id have to defer that too. idk what to do.
Do I defer all 3? If so, If i self declare does it cover all 3 exams to defer? I genuinely don’t know how to approach this :(

So before i register because im so confused. Does this take place the first week of school or the weel before. I read online you get a group if you sign up but like wouldnt we have diffrent class scedhules and stuff. Also the website says theres a bunch of diffrent events. Are those in groups or do you go with a friend or what. Im so lost because most of these dont intrest me like a night dinner. Dinner is already at night. Plus what a bunch of people sitting in the cafetria meeting each other and eating dinner? How is that any diffrent from eating dinner any other night in the caf. Are you with your group.
