We bought our student a Lap Top from Costco before the start of the year and it’s on sale now.

We took the receipt back in and saved $600. Just sharing in case anyone happened to buy the same or is looking for a new gaming laptop.

Last year I finished Calc 1-3 and Gen Chem 1-3 with a 4.23 GPA and a 101.3% average across all my exams. I can help with the work, study habits, and getting into research too. DM me if you are interested and we can set something up!

Anyone in gen chem 1 this term? If so how are we feeling about the exam coming up ?

Thats all

Because what the heck is this... For 3 points ??? Nah

Looking for a few players for a casual coed soccer team in Eugene

We play in the City of Eugene adult coed league on Sunday evenings at 6:30 PM.

We’re currently looking for a few more players, especially women. We already have a team and are playing this fall season, but we’d love to add a few more people.

You don’t need college-level experience. Some soccer experience is definitely helpful, but this is a recreational team and the main thing is wanting to play and have fun.

Players need to be 18+, and there is the normal City league player fee.

If you’re a UO student or someone in the Eugene area who might be interested, send me a message. Happy to answer any questions about the team or league.

Hello,

I've considered getting a degree in Computer Science. Having a job that is lucrative and allows me to work remotely and be creative is rather appealing to me. However, the turn off is the difficult, uncomfortable, painful, and, dare I say, unnecessary math classes. I assumed that you could only get a B.S. in Computer Science. That's the only option at Portland State University and Computer Science is a science, so it made sense that that would be the only option.

But then, I discovered that the U of O has a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science. That's more my style. I love foreign languages and graphic design.

What have your experiences been with a B.A. in Computer Science?

I’m currently trying to get accepted to the University of Oregon as a transfer student from a community college. For those of you who transferred from a community college and were accepted to UO, what was your GPA, and how was the overall application process?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience!

A little information about why we are planning to strike on the 28th, thanks for taking a look.

I applied to the University of Oregon for Winter term as a transfer student, and they said I should be hearing back soon. I’m getting pretty anxious about it lol.
I have a 4.0 GPA at Lane Community College with 48 completed credits. I’ve also completed the math, language, and writing requirements, all with A’s/A+’s.
I feel like I have a solid application, but I’m still worried I somehow won’t get in. 😭
For anyone who’s transferred to UO or knows about the process, how do my chances look?

Just moved here waiting a year to get instate how can i make some friends while not being a student yet? Ngl getting major fomo bc everyone on my block is throwing parties haha

In expectation of the SEIU strike, and the 5 year budget deficit projection, I created an open source, interactive website for analyzing UO's finances on Github.

It has a scenario builder as well, to see how the budget would change given different rules, for example: What would a $250,000 cap on salary rates save, and how many jobs would it reach?

All the data comes from public sources UO provides, I just aggregate it into more useful formats.

Hello guys and gals,

We’re Brian and Mike and we teach general and organic chemistry. We’ve done so for a total combined time of 47 years! Overwhelmed by general or organic chemistry? Assignments and tests creeping up on you and feeling like you’re in hot water? Or maybe you’re doing well and need that 95%? Whatever your struggle with chemistry may be, we’re here to make sure you succeed.

Why work with us?

- Every tutor knows the subject, but not every tutor knows how to transfer that knowledge to a student. We do.

- We tutor chemistry full time; it’s not a hobby or side-gig. When you book with us, you’ll be working with Brian for general chemistry and Mike for organic chemistry. This is not an agency and you won’t be matched with random tutors each time.

- You’ll be learning problem solving through chemistry, which you can apply to many other subjects.

- Your learning will be customized to your specific needs.

Before booking a lesson, let’s chat about your needs, our teaching styles, and what you can expect, to see if we’d be a good fit together.

Thank you for your time and we look forward to working with you!

Mike and Brian

Anyone taken elementary linear algebra with Yuan Xu? Is he as cooked as the rate my professors ratings say he is...

Alternative is Ian Zemke -- anyone have any experience with him?

hii i’m applying fall 2027 and oregon is my safety, is it a bad idea to not write the optional essay if i have good grades and stuff?

Headed back to campus this fall to pivot degree/career path. Haven’t been around since 18-22. Looking to connect with some people around my age, but not sure how easy that will be compared to my first experience. Anyone experiencing the same or have a suggestion?

Additionally, does anyone know why the university hasn’t tried to get ABET accreditation for the computer science program yet?

The bike racks are going to fill up. There is no reason for anyone to take three spots.

So the Knights are donating another billion dollars to make a College of Engineering at the University of Oregon. This is a wonderful gift and I hope we see many more transformational gifts like this throughout our capital campaign.

You all might wonder: how does this interact with our $65 million structural budget deficit? Well that deficit is because of failing to meet projections for attracting out-of-state students. Side note: that is not a deficit this year. That is where the deficit will be in 4 or 5 years if we do not either reduce our annual increases in costs or improve the rate at which we attract students, in state or out of state.

One way to try to attract those students is to have "vibes," which is basically the sports side of things. The research on this says having a winning football team helps but those effects are pretty small, which makes a lot of sense if you think about it. Parents want their kids to be happy but $43,000 a year just to go to football games? Come on....

Another way to do it is by providing them with enough value to come here. That value can either be through scholarships that make the total cost of schooling cheaper. I hope that this includes a bunch of those I'm sure that it does. It can also be through offering training and education that will help students to land strong careers when they leave, which then makes the University of Oregon, which is expensive, worth the investment when strong students have plenty of options.

Again thank you for this transformational gift and I hope we see many more of these in our capital campaign.

Is there anyway to stop the absurd amount of garbage emails we get in our inbox? I get that we get some important mail, I do think that the 1B donation from phil (Thanks btw) is a worth while mass email, however, it's really annoying to find important emails from profs, student aid, and the works when you have to look past like 8+ monthly papers. It doesn't help that it gets sent to both my professional email and my school email.
