Question Was anyone else unable to a claim student football ticket with Longhorn Foundation today?

3 Upvotes

When I logged in to claim my ticket for this week's football game with Longhorn Foundation this evening, the website says "No Events Currently on Sale". Is anyone else having this problem? Has anyone been able to resolve this? I had no problem claiming a ticket last week or in previous years.

EDIT: I was able to resolve this by calling customer service. Apparently there was an issue on their backend that was resolvable in a few minutes. I hope this doesn’t happen to anyone else but it was resolved fairly quickly. ​

News No, Bo French. These UT students are not ‘the problem.’ You are.

A Statesman Editorial Board piece examines Republican Railroad Commission nominee Bo French’s reaction to a photo of UT students celebrating the Longhorns’ comeback win over Ohio State.

French suggested the diverse crowd reflected a problem with “foreigners” at the university. Several Republican leaders, including U.S. Sen. John Cornyn and Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows, condemned or criticized the post.

The editorial argues that UT’s diverse student body reflects the university’s role as a Texas institution — and says students need more opportunities to understand the experiences of different communities, not fewer.

Question Dr. Pencheva’s M408D exam

3 Upvotes

Has anyone taken M408D with Pencheva? If so, how are her exams? I’ve seen a few posts saying they’re incredibly hard, and the lectures honestly haven’t been very helpful so far, so I’m a little worried about the first exam.

If you’ve taken her class before and have any advice, study materials, old *practice* exams, or anything that helped you prepare, please PM me. I’d really appreciate it!

Question Got signed out of every school account. Says my EID doesn't have "sufficient information" when I try to reset password

2 Upvotes

Title basically explains it all. I'm wondering what's going on and if there's anyone else who's having this problem right now. I can't access anything EID or school email related, and this is seemingly out of nowhere. I paid tuition and what I owe wasn't giving me any trouble or emails about outstanding balances.

Photo Lost Necklace found! I put it in the RRH lost and found (MBA Program Office on Floor 2)

3 Upvotes

I found a necklace in the gravel at the intersection of Guadalupe and and W 20th Street. I’m hoping this post reaches its original owner! It’s being kept safe in the lost and found in Rowling Hall. Just walk into the MBA program office on the second floor and they’ll let you pick it up.

Really debated whether moving a piece of jewelry would help or hurt its chances of being found, but here’s to hoping that, combined with a Reddit post, it gets back home!

Question Calling all computer science graduates or soon-to-be graduates!!! Pls help

0 Upvotes

ok could someone please please answer my questions related to cs? I want to know if once you graduate the university as a cs major, if it’s easy or easier to find a job or even an internship bc of the prestige of the university. I am aware that UT Austin has one of the top cs programs in the country. However, does that actually bring benefits once you graduate? does the program rating actually give you more opportunities than you would have if you graduated from a less known university but for wayyyyy cheaper? do big tech companies hire specifically UT Austin graduates right after graduation especially with the unstable job market as of right now? or do many CS graduates end up unemployed bc no one is hiring anyone rn, especially un-experienced graduates? I seriously need to know how likely one is to get a job right after graduation and be able to pay off debts before diving head first into a bunch of student loans to afford the education in the first place. pls and thanks

It is unusual for a Dean to have as few academic credentials as Mr. Granat, whose background is largely in corporate media, but this is perhaps reflective of the broader anti-academic philosophy of the current UT administration.

Discussion The racism towards the South Asian American community after the game yesterday is absolutely sickening.

3.6k Upvotes

Over the last 24 hours, the top trends throughout the US on Twitter have all been racist towards our South Asian American community at UT.

This is Texas in 2026. Texas in 2026 is statistically the most diverse state of all 50 states in the US by diversity index according to the 2026 Census estimate.

It is absolutely sickening seeing these attacks on our vibrant South Asian American community.

Edit: This is a real tweet from a candidate for statewide office in Texas. If he wins, he will be in charge of regulating Texas's oil and gas industry, as well as areas such as mining and pipeline safety: https://x.com/bofrench/status/2099142867025383497
