Question Post-midterm reflection: how do I further develop my grad school social life?

5 Upvotes

I feel pretty close to my cohort 9 weeks in but that’s about it. I’m not doing much out and about and in Athens and the other clubs I’m in I don’t feel really connected with anyone, despite sharing hobbies I have interest in. A big part of picking this school for me were the social opportunities, but I just haven’t found that yet. I also feel weird being not really removed from undergrad age-wise, yet definitely feeling that split between myself and the undergraduate population.

Any thoughts? Ideas? Rants? I’m all ears 👂

Question UGA pharmD alumni in industry - prospective student asking for experience and advice

2 Upvotes

Hello! I'm a prospective pharmD student and I'm currently looking at which college is best for me. I know I want to go into a communications-heavy role (preferably with lots of writing and corresponding between different professionals about research and literature, somewhere in the medical affairs space). If any pharmD alumni who went into industry are willing to talk with me (DM or email) about their experiences in UGA and their recommendations, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Question How is grad school for the business programs (specifically MIS)

3 Upvotes

So I’m currently a senior MIS major at GCSU and don’t get me wrong I’ve loved my time and the education I’ve gotten at the school. I’ve made lifelong friends, made many great relationships with professors, joined many clubs, Greek life and all of that. But I kind of have an itch that I regret not transferring to UGA for my junior or senior year. Im currently looking into going to grad school after I finish my undergrad this spring, and I was wondering how some of yalls experience with UGA’s business/MIS grad school programs are and if you enjoy it/think its worth it.

Question first semester as a transfer…feeling like a failure

21 Upvotes

hello everyone, i just transferred to uga (20m) and it is kicking my ass hard. i transferred from a very easy small school and im on the pre terry and pre law track. my gpa before was a 3.76 but gpa resets here. everything is much harder than expected and im bombing a lot. i dropped my accounting class bc of how badly i failed the first exam (very very very bad) and i just learned i failed my first exam in macro as well. i think if i rlly rllly rlly try, i could finesse a B in macro but not sure. main point here is that im just worried for my gpa. i’m a jr and i only have 9 credit hrs now so im a bit worried ab what’ll happen to me (i think i have 50 credit hrs left) i still need to apply to terry and then i have law school to worry ab. i have never felt like such a failure before. does it get better?? do any other transfers have any advice ab this? i’m so worried, haven’t rlly been able to eat or sleep…

Question Is three tutorials too much for Oxford UGA?

3 Upvotes

I was just accepted into the Oxford Spring II program as an English major. I need four English classes to graduate on time, but there is only one English seminar offered. Therefore, I would have to take three tutorials and one seminar instead of the recommended two and two.

Any English majors have experience taking three tutorials? I don’t want to be overworked, but I’m wondering if it’s doable.

Question Bio Prof being too strict about the syllabus?

0 Upvotes

I’m writing this for my girlfriend since she doesn’t use Reddit and doesn’t want this connected back to her.

She has a bio professor and she was meaning to take an exam Thursday Oct 8th. She, however came down with a sickness on Tuesday. She fought it to the best of her ability, but it won over and Wednesday I took her to UHC to get checked out. She got diagnosed and got a prescription to deal with it. She is much better now. It seems for her to have gotten a make-up exam, she would have had to submit the form prior to her exam start time(which was 8:15am). She got the doctor’s note on Wednesday and decided she needed to go home 1.5 hrs away to be with her parents whom could take care of her best. She slept most of the car ride back, and when she got home passed out on the couch. She couldn’t even make it to her bed, poor thing. She submitted the make-up exam request form the following day, the day of the exam, after her exam took place, since she was sleeping until after 8am, as you normally do when you are sick. She then got an email from her prof later on Friday stating that she couldn’t make up the exam since she submitted it after the exam took place, and the syllabus states that the make up request must be submitted “PRIOR” to the exam taking place. This class has 4 exams worth 45% of the final grade, meaning missing one exam would cost you 11.25% of your entire grade. Upon realizing this, my gf started bawling her eyes out and called me to come console her. I promptly helped her to write out a follow up email explaining the situation and that she physically and emotionally couldn’t submit the make up request and that she was in bed all night, unable to submit the form. She also pointed out that she is an “A” student and really enjoys the prof’s class, she would be saddened if missing one exam would drop her grade an entire letter grade, and for something that was entirely outside of her control. I find it extremely funny that one word in the syllabus that barely no one looks at (even though my gf looks very thoroughly through each syllabus she gets, but just missed or forgot about this) would be able to cost 11.25% of a student’s entire grade. I had her point this out in the email. She took some time to look through the email and sent it out to the prof. On Monday, prof responded saying my gf couldn’t take the exam since she has to stick to syllabus policy, and it would be unfair to give special treatment, even though I think this would be the situation for special treatment, since she was sick. I also find it funny that most syllabi, even this one, state that the prof reserved the right to change syllabus at any time for any reason given the prof deems necessary, but this doesn’t seem fit for a special accommodation to occur in their opinion. This prof seems very strict on their wording and isn’t willing to compromise for a special circumstance. I believe she should be given the chance to take the exam since she otherwise wouldn’t be given a grade based on her knowledge of the course. This wouldn’t even be a loss of grade since she “didn’t manage her time well,” she was literally sick and couldn’t stay awake to get on her phone to submit it. I think it’s really quite stupid, for lack of a better term, that this is all even having to be dealt with. She was sick and should be granted the opportunity to take the exam to showcase her knowledge on the material.

My ask is for my writing on Reddit to reach someone that could help or to reach someone who knows someone that could help so she could take her exam. The make up request has other times and days that would work for a make up, the prof just decided that since my gf submitted it after their very specific approval window, she shouldn’t be given the opportunity to take the exam. The last date that was given to take the make up exam would be this Thursday, Oct 15th, so any help before then would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if anyone can help. Thank you for reading.

My current roommate and I would be roommates again, but we want our additional roommates to be our 4 other friends (since there are 3 rooms). Is there any way to make sure that we would have them in our suite with us? Or will they just be randoms? If im doing a super suite I dont wanna live with randoms.

Athletics Questions about becoming a student equipment manager for UGA Football

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I know this has been spoken about before on this thread, but I'm interested in potentially becoming a student equipment manager for the Georgia football team, and I'd love to hear from anyone who has experience with the program!

I understand that working with a major college football program like UGA's is probably pretty competitive, and I realize that getting a position isn't guaranteed and it may not be likely I'll be chosen. I'm still interested in learning more about the opportunity, though, and I'd especially appreciate hearing from people who have actually gone through the application and selection process.

I have a few questions:

  • Are female students able to become football equipment managers? - I'd love to hear from any women who have held the position and learn about their experiences.
  • What does the job actually entail? - What are your typical responsibilities during the season and offseason?
  • How much of a time commitment is it? - How many days per week do you typically work, and roughly how many hours? How does the schedule change during game weeks?
  • Just how competitive is the selection process? - For those who have applied or worked in the program, how many applicants are typically considered, and what do you think makes someone stand out? I'd really appreciate an honest perspective on how difficult it is to get selected and how realistic it is for someone new to the program.
  • Do student equipment managers travel with the football team? - This may be a no brainer, but I just wanted to check and make sure that student equipment managers accompany the team at away games.
  • How does the application process work? - Is there a formal application or interview, or should interested students contact the equipment staff directly? Are there any prerequisites or experience requirements?
  • For former student managers, what was your experience like overall? - What did you enjoy most, what were the hardest parts, and would you recommend it to someone considering applying?

I'm not expecting to get a position just by expressing interest, and I know it may be a long shot. I'd just like to understand what the opportunity realistically looks like, what I could do to improve my chances, and whether it's something worth pursuing.

Thanks so much for any insight or advice! Go Dawgs! ❤️🖤
