Hey, it is my first semester at umich. I love computer science and wanna pursue a degree in it. However I am not the best coder and want to learn more. i failed my first midterm for eecs 183 because i got in the trap that it is an easy class given i take ap java etc. I also couldn't time manage properly and got busy rushing clubs instead of being top of things. I understand my mistakes but the exam was still pretty tricky. If anyone can give me tips on what to do moving forward and anyone who had a similar expierence yet went on with their cs degree? my advisor straight said to consider switching majors

Felt like watching Makato Shinkai movie after a tough week. Anyone down? I don't have popcorn tho.

hi can someone please share their experiences or anything they know ab these dorms? im going thru a roommate change and might move into one of these but there is barely any info about them!

hi i’m currently a freshman and i’m in wolverine village. my roommate and i do not get along for many reason (long story) so i got approved to move out immediately due to safety concerns. they offered for me to move into a suite dorm in my same building, which could be nice but could also come with more roommate issues bc now id be sharing a space with 3 girls instead of only 1. i was also offered a single at barbour or newberry… now im an extrovert and ive already made a good amount of friends so im not worried ab living in a single, but i have read some rlly interesting reviews ab both of these dorms being old and kind of dirty. pls lmk what u think i should do and if u have any advice or want to share ur experiences. i feel like this is such a wild situation, so any comment will probably help ty

Hey!

I've been looking to get a perm redone recently, and I was curious if anybody knew a good place to get one? I'm mainly looking for somewhere nearby Central Campus.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I’m a junior looking for other girls to play Valorant with (I’m also a girl). All my other friends who play are too busy with midterms and I just genuinely want to make more friends at this school through games 🙂‍↕️🥹

Y’all should do my survey please and thank you 🙏🙏

I saw near ingas mall park area near the fountain in chalk written Queer Femme Skate. Was this an event? Who put it on? I walked past after it was done and saw it on the ground and I wanted to make mew friends

Hi all! Sophomore looking to (potentially) move from North to Central Campus next year. I'm starting the housing search process and am wondering where everyone on Central goes for groceries. I've heard Meijer and Target so far, but I don't have a car so that's a factor for me. Thank you!!

Edit: If you have ideas, anything else that I might be missing during my search? I hadn't even thought about groceries when looking last year.

Edit edit: Looking for specifically cheaper options. I am not rich by any means lol.

Anyone want to split an Uber/Lyft to DTW early Saturday (Oct 17)?

Hey everyone! I have a 7 AM flight tomorrow and unfortunately the Michigan Flyer is completely sold out.

I'm looking for 1–3 people heading to DTW early tomorrow morning to split an Uber/Lyft or taxi. Ideally leaving Ann Arbor around 4:00 AM, but I'm flexible!

I'm on North Campus but happy to coordinate a convenient pickup location. If anyone's interested, feel free to DM me! :)

This course sounds interesting but I can’t find much information on it. What does the homework consist of? Is there exams and presentations. How are the lectures?

Hello!

I’m a recent alumni with student section tickets. My mcard isn’t expired. Should I still be able to get let in to the game with a non validated ticket?

I'm looking for anyone who might have seen this man walking around campus. Roughly 6 feet tall, last seen in a black suit with a red shirt and tie, and wearing a paper mask with an exaggerated grin.

More in-depth information, as well as the means of contacting me, can be found on my website at HaveYouSeenTheAnnArborSmilingMan.

Last weekend I was forced to get ambulanced by the cops to the ER for alcohol intox because i was stumbling. I do NOT want to tell my parents because i will get disowned. what should i do. dont lecture me because TRUST ME ive already learned my lesson. i dont have student health insurance but i am considering purchasing it if you think it could cover this even after it occurred. i do not have my parents insurance on my health file and am honestly planning on paying this self-pay. how much do you think this bill could come out to if i call up the hospitals billing department and ask for a discount (or will they js laugh in my face). also in the hospital they did not give me any iv drips or testing i literally just slept there and left early in the morning.

once again i do not need a lecture i have 100% learned my lesson and am just looking for guidance

Hey everyone, given how poorly Exam 1 seemed to go, can we request the instructors if the exam could be dropped or if some of its weight could be shifted to our existing projects (or an additional project)?

This would give us another opportunity to demonstrate our understanding of the material.

Hi, I'm planning for my next semester's schedule, and I'm wondering if the combo of EECS 522 and the tapeout class taught by Zhengya (and only these) is doable.

Also, how much time commitment (weekly hours estimate) do people usually put into these two classes?

Hi everyone - I've gotten a lot of inbound on how to handle IB interview questions on the markets etc. The first step is to have a daily pulse on what is going on. If you dont check news daily (it doesnt have to be a lot of sources, just a few high quality ones) then when you speak to peers or interviewers (who are front office) your knowledge will look outdated, worth spending time in the morning 10-15 mins getting smart on the all the big stories moving stocks each day

For those undergrads interviewing with on campus student finance clubs in the next few weeks, here are a few bullets from today to get you started with - these are things then you can follow in the weeks ahead (yes and new items will pop up that are top of mind in the market)

Example using today:

- AI-related names have been trading down due the massive amount of capital being raised (especially debt capital), yields are high due to inflation (oil price are high) which makes debt financing more expensive, the inflation reading (CPI) this morning was higher than expected too

-As a result, market participants are watching every single data point on Anthropic's upcoming IPO - the timeline and the valuation. If any slippage any anyt of these it will be considered negative (the are having an investor day today fyi so you should get info)

-This could also hurt M&A activity because debt is used to fund deals (the ibanks started reporting earnings this week and do comment on what they are seeing)

-Investors in recent days have been selling AI-related stocks and rotating into safe-havens like healthcare, consumer staples and defense

None of this is investment advice its meant to show how students can key in on the most important things moving the market - its usually 1-3 at any given moment. My advice is to use this as a starting point and then follow what happens with these items in the coming weeks - you can use this as a jumping point to then in hone in on specific companies and/or sectors
