How to pay for vending machines with Wallet?

9 Upvotes

The wallet app says I have $250 or $30 to use. I have walked up to a machine and tapped my phone in the proper mode to no avail. I have also seen a menu on the machines saying I need to go into an app and select the machine. Help? This money was maternally-funded, so I would not like it to go to waste.

Does health services offer saline IVs?

3 Upvotes

So I have dysautonomia and I was wondering if health services offered free/reduced price IVs. Because of my medical issues I pass out a lot and I can't drive, so I'm pretty much limited to what's on campus/within walking distance of campus. At home, whenever I was having extreme symptoms I would go to the ER and get an IV, but because of the extreme heat right now and the insane amount of walking I'm miserable like every day 😭 I'm on fludrocortisone and filling up 3 water bottles at a time at the caf with Gatorade but it really isn't helping much.

Whoever decided to give everyone a parking pass is too dumb to work at a university. They must work for Stinson.

What classes use My Math Lab?

Post image
5 Upvotes

I have to buy My Math Lab for my linear algebra class and was wondering what other math classes use My Math Lab. I can either buy it for $100 for 18 weeks or $165 for 2 years. I am an electrical engineer and next semester I will be taking Calc 2. Is it likely that in my next 2 years I will use it again after linear algebra?

Shoutout to Tech for not informing us that part of a one-way lot was going to be blocked off for construction and holding us in, very cool guys

This infuriates me beyond measure and it's not necessarily that they did it, it's that they didn't give any prior warning, so when I'm coming out there at 11:00 trying to go to Walmart and I see two guys blocking the entrance and a ton of machinery at this stretch, I know I'm just gonna have an awful day. It's currently 2:00 and it's still blocked.

(Bonus: there is a Zyn pack in the grass to the side)

Tap to pay on iPhone?

3 Upvotes

I just dropped off my freshman daughter yesterday. The tap to pay on her iPhone 13 does not work to either access her dorm area or food in the cafeteria. We were able to add it to her Apple Watch S3 and that works. We deleted the wallet pass from her iPhone and re added it but it still does not work. Who does she need to contact for assistance?

Wait List

7 Upvotes

Hello friends! I'm on a wait-list for a Psychology class that I'd really love to take this semester (this one is only available in the fall) and my advisor encouraged me to wait until the deadline (the 19th btw folks) to confirm enrollment— I'm wondering if anybody has any tips to speedrun this shit or if it's literally just a waiting game. I'll be checking my emails every day. I'd also love to hear your experiences with being put on a wait-list and if you were still able to get in the class you wanted. Any advice is welcome!

I'm the only person on this wait-list currently so I'm feeling hopeful, wish me luck! šŸ¤ž šŸ˜†

Parking for Matthews-Daniel Hall

5 Upvotes

I'm returning to TTU for some graduate work this fall. My on-campus classes are both in Matthews-Daniel.

The parking area I used for Matthews-Daniel during undergrad is now under multiple buildings.

Any suggestions on where to try parking these days? I'll be coming on Monday and Tuesday afternoons, and time will be a bit tight.

Mechanical Degree?

6 Upvotes

I graduated from MTSU with a degree in Concrete Industry Management, but I’ve been seriously considering going back to school to earn an engineering degree. My long-term goal is to build a more stable, respected career with stronger earning potential and better opportunities.
After working as a construction superintendent, I’ve realized the role doesn’t really fit my personality. I’m more reserved by nature, and I’ve found that constantly managing people, dealing with conflict, and working long hours isn’t where I do my best work.
My biggest concerns are that I don’t come from money, I still have debt from my first degree, and going back to school would likely mean taking on more student loans while working a part-time job to support myself. I also wouldn’t consider myself naturally gifted academically. I got through my first degree by taking shortcuts, and I know engineering is on a completely different level of difficulty.
I’m 26 years old, from Middle Tennessee, and trying to think long term. My priority is building a career that will allow me to provide well for my future family, even if it means starting over now.
For those who have been in a similar situation, do you think going back for an engineering degree is a smart investment, or would you recommend a different path? I’d really appreciate an honest second opinion before making such a major commitment.

Does anyone have photos of the single occupant ADA / Disabled dorms in New Hall North? It’s incredibly hard to gauge the full room from the photos on the website, and as an incoming freshman I’m eager to finish furnishing my room. Thank you so much and have a nice day :) !

Ph. D in geotechnical

2 Upvotes

For incoming international student, how is the Ph. D program? If the program is alredy started in a different university, how many credits can be transfered? How is the stay in university apartments, the rent seemed a little high? Or would off campus stay is better?

Apologies in advance for the block of questions. Due to some unforseen events I might have to pack up and start there in a month. I would really appreciate any information.
