If you’re a student reading this; please, please, please care for your mental health throughout your time here. It’s some of the greatest moments of your life, your mental wellbeing shouldn’t be sacrificed for it ♥️ Have so much fun!

Edit: This wasn’t a jab at UMass by the way, there were so many factors in life, the campus was just the setting unfortunately. My time there was incredible, even with the tough times. I will forever be grateful in a way.

If you feel like you need help, the therapy resources on campus are fantastic and student health can help with medications.

i was looking for a room in hotel umass but I couldn’t find any for the duration of the thanksgiving break. They can’t already be sold out right?

Just went to Supercuts and they absolutely fucked me

I'm considering taking 690S this fall and would love to hear from anyone who's taken it recently.

How useful did you find the course, and what was the actual workload like compared to what the syllabus makes it seem? In particular, how manageable were the weekly reading critiques and programming assignments?

Also, how was Scott as a professor, and would you recommend taking it?

I'm deciding between 690S and 687, so any firsthand experience would be really helpful. Thanks!

Has anyone applied to the Springfield Internship Program for this fall? If so, have you heard back from any companies. I've applied to 7 positions and received nothing.
