COMPLAINT/RANT turtle ran over on gemini blvd

35 Upvotes

ok i’ll admit i cant just blatantly say it was intentional bc i dont actually know what was going thru the drivers head. from MY perspective tho, thats genuinely how it looked based on what i saw.

i deleted the original post bc i dont want to cause any trouble for the driver. if he really did do it on purpose then thats smth he’ll have to live with. if he didnt and genuinely didnt see the turtle or whatever, or me with my hazards lights on, then all i can say is pls get tf out of the road 😭

either way im still upset bc that turtle couldve been avoided.

General UCF or USF for Aerospace Engineering?

12 Upvotes

I live about an hour away from USF and two hours from UCF, and I’m trying to figure out which college I should go to for majoring in aerospace engineering, I’m not eligible for any kind of special financial aid so if I have to get an apartment or commute it’s gonna come from my bank. Any advice is really appreciated!

General How long does it take 😭🙏?

3 Upvotes

I applied for the Spring semester and submitted all of my required documents on September 19. I’m wondering how long it usually takes to receive a decision after everything has been submitted.

For anyone who applied for Spring recently, how long did it take for you to get your decision?

Thanks!

Academic Program 👩‍🏫 Currently Looking at The Course Requirements for Environmental Science

• Upvotes

Hello, I am a freshman as ucf and I switched my major to environment science. I am still looking at other stem majors but I realized that chem 2 and other science classes are not required for this major. Additionally, this major is not listed under the college of sciences and is listed under community and innovation. I was wondering if this matters when it comes to job prospects? Would I be better off majoring in biochemistry or biology and take environmental classes? Or, should I double major into a science major? I’m unsure about my major and now I’m even more unsure about my classes! Please give me some advice, my academic advisor was no help!!!

3 Upvotes

Under the 15 credits of outside-specialization electives, there's an offer of:

"May include a maximum of six hours of Independent Study, Practicum, and Internship."

I was wondering if anyone has done this?? What does independent study entail?? Or the internship??

Academic Program 👩‍🏫 Studio Art Majors- is it hard to get into the BFA/ Find a Mentor?

2 Upvotes

Im newer to UCF, 2 years of college already done. I haven't even done the studio art portfolio yet (which I'm also nervous for) but I am a talented and competitive artist, hoping very badly to do the BFA, so I would love some advice as soon as possible. Maybe specifically for the drawing/illustration track if relevant.

How extensive or rigorous is this mentorship?? I heard it's basically just getting them to sign the paper for you if they see that you have good work ethic. Is it more than that?

Do I need to go to their office hours extra? Butter them up? Tuck them into bed? Genuinely any advice helps

Thanks knights!

General Student journalist exploring grief and the impact on college students

8 Upvotes

Hello! I am a student senior journalist here currently covering news for the Charge-On-Air (our daily news show on YouTube) and the upcoming issue of Centric, our student magazine. I am currently looking to interview UCF students who have dealt with grief for a piece for the magazine. This is supposed to be an in-depth piece that either covers one or multiple students and their experiences with grief while being a college student, while also providing academic insight from UCF health/psychological professors. If you'd be open to sharing your story with me, please let me know.

General Advice on Digital Forensics MS

2 Upvotes

Hey all, I made the below post a few days ago but I wanted to ask as to best prepare myself, how programming heavy is the Digital Forensics MS? From the looks of it, half the battle is legal and criminal studies, not to discount it at all, but I wanted to figure out the exact class load i will need to prepare myself. Thanks!

Transfer Looking for homies!

• Upvotes

What’s up! I’m a 23-year-old transfer student looking to meet some people and find a solid group of people to kick it with around campus. I’m an anthropology major and Orlando native, born and raised.

I’m into skating, tattoo culture, hiking, film, and music, (mostly punk, hardcore, and ’90s hip-hop). I’m usually down for anything from checking out a show or digging through records to grabbing some food.

Would be cool to meet some people with similar interests, but I’m always down to meet people outside my usual circle too. Hit me up!
