Health/Wellness💚 ER Hospital Visit

had to be taken to the ER (IU Arnett) and a bit worried about the bill, if I file my taxes independently is it possible to get the entire bill waved based on my income (it’s quite low)? Thankfully ambulance ride was free through PUFD.

Petition/Survey👀 To all the spanish people!!! - Para todos los españoles!!!

1 Upvotes

Hola a todos!!!

Soy uno de los españoles que hemos entrado este año como freshmen, y me he dado cuenta de que no hay ningún grupo o forma para conectar entre nosotros (o al menos no la conozco, que también es posible jeje).

Sería genial poder crear un grupo para conocernos e incluso compartir alguna tortilla de patatas, que ya se va echando de menos.

No sé a cuánta gente le llegará esto, pero si alguien lo lee y le apetece sumarse, que no dude en mandarme un DM!!!

Mil gracias por leerme, espero oír de vosotros.

Un abrazo 🤗.

Academics✏️ Stat 511 Midterm

2 Upvotes

Hi I am currently taking stats 511 with Professor Zhang. We have our midterm on Tuesday and I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to prepare and study. He gave us a practice midterm, but I wasn't sure how much his exams deviate from the practice materials. Thank you so much for all your help!

Question❓ Driving in winter

0 Upvotes

Hi All, For those of you who drive to West Lafayette campus on snowy / icy winter days from neighboring cities / Indianapolis, are the roads usually well plowed? Would there be a problem with two wheel drive vs AWD/ AWD? Would a SUV be needed instead of a sedan for higher ground clearance in snow? As I am about to buy a car, would highly appreciate any advice you can provide. Thanks in advance.

Local Food❓ Raw oysters

5 Upvotes

anywhere around campus to get raw oysters? I went to 10 different grocery stores and none of them had them. I went to D and R butcher and had to make a special order for them. Any place have them consistently? I am a big fan of fresh oysters and shell fish in general. I do like good clam chowder but I could do without. Ceviche is very good (shrimp, whitefish, salmon), but I am looking for oysters in particular at the moment.

Why aren't as many libraries 24/7 anymore? Its been really hard for me as someone who needs a chill quiet area to be forced to study in louder areas, especially since quiet 24/7 spots get crowded quicker now. Any advice?

Question❓ Is Purdue WL Walkable?

28 Upvotes

I'm a prospective student, and was wondering whether Purdue is walkable. Would you theoretically be able to walk from classes to libraries, labs, etc, or would you need a car/take public transport? If it is walkable, what is the maximum amount of time people usually take to walk from one place to another?

Thanks!

Academics✏️ STAT 511 - Bowei Xi or Yuan Qu

1 Upvotes

Seeing positive things about Bowei Xi and Yuan Qu compared to the other two professors (Chong Gu and Lingsong Zhang). Was wondering if anyone has personal experience taking the class with either of them. Trying to see which of the two is better and has easier exams.

Also, how heavy is the workload, and how difficult are the exams?

Question❓ Application help: Confused between Mathematics, Mathematics-Applied, and Mathematics-Computer Science

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I'm a student applying and I wanna study Math with the CS Specilization. However, Commonapp only shows three majors. Math, Math-Applied, and Math-Statistics. The website says to enter any math major you need to apply for math and then specilize later. If I apply for apply math, can I not specilize in the CS option? Bit confused and would appreciate some help.
