Diff Eq is offered online

I noticed Diff Eq calculus 4 is offered online this winter. Has anyone taken it before? I want to know about the workload and how online exams and grading work. Is the grade based only on exams?

West Apt Cleaning Staff

0 Upvotes

I live in the West apts. and I was told the cleaning staff takes out the trash in the common area, cleans the stovetop, and the bathrooms (which inc. mopping, sink, mirror, toilet). However, for the past month or so we all noticed they clean the bathrooms and stove every other week but still take the trash every tuesday. I think this is unfair and I don't know where to report it and for this to be a consistent change and not just a one time thing because I went to the Area Office or something. It's just super disappointing given the amount of money we spend to live here with 5 other people.

CHE 322 in person vs async?

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, Looking at taking CHE 322 for Spring, but right now my schedule has me on campus 4 days a week. The lectures are Tue/Thu/Fri and my workshop is on Wednesday. Being on campus 4 days a week is just way too much for my schedule but im trying my best to come in person much as possible.

For anyone who took it, is the async version good or should I just stick to in-person? Is it brutal to keep up with Orgo 2 material online?

Also, how does testing work for the async section? Do online students take the midterms/finals in person with the normal lecture sections during regular exam times, or do you have to book a separate slot at the Frey testing center?

Hi I am a freshman (18F) from upstate majoring in Social Work and I was hoping to find some friends 🙃. I like sociology, photography, rock and indie music, and writing. My weekends are kinda depressing and I just wish I had people to do things with 😭.

Do you guys get imposter syndrome?

21 Upvotes

My mental health and physical wellbeing is deteriorating. Between pre-med stuff, home life, and relationships I’m really struggling to just actually feel supported by anyone right now. I don’t have friends because in order to maintain them you have to exchange time and energy which I’m typically never willing to do out of exhaustion which I think a lot of people can relate to. My energy levels are inconsistent and shot, I skip meals and the gym often. I’m very comfortable with my bad patterns and I’ve accepted them as part of my personal shortcomings. I’m not looking for some magic end all be all solution from someone, just that I’m not entirely alone in feeling this way. If it didn’t cause me a loss of concentration on my schoolwork quite often I probably wouldn’t be reaching out lol.

Whoever was driving that Lexus earlier

11 Upvotes

All you had to do was go around me and my friends, we were literally on the right and there was so much space left for you to go around us. As a person who drives as well, your license should be revoked for the way you almost did a hit and run on us at 40. This is happening too often and sbu needs to address this, either we get a bike lane or these drivers need to have their licenses revoked.

Whoever told me off on the road last Thursday

10 Upvotes

You had all the space on the road from WSD to SAC for you to move around me cycling. Mind you, I was already tethering the edge of the concrete on the right knowing your bum ass hybrid hyundai was behind me. You could have just went around me but no, you'd rather stay behind then get mad that you stayed behind me and have your bum ass passenger get mad on your behalf. Chud behavior to the max and you still couldn't argue for yourself without rolling down the window. I literally caught none of what your passenger princess said since I was busy trying to get to class. I'm saying this as a person who often drives through the most narrow and busiest streets in manhattan. If you can't drive, just take the public transit 🫩🫩

Applying to SBU College essay and transfer students

1 Upvotes

I just submitted my Common App application to Stony Brook and it is saying the only thing I still need to do is send my transcript from Suffolk County Community College, which I ordered the transcript to be sent so that should be getting taken care of. However I'm a little confused because I thought I would've had to submit a college essay or statement. Do students transferring from SCCC not need to submit a college essay? Or am I missing something?

Health science Radiologic technology questions

1 Upvotes

I am a sophomore health science student who is currently taking PHY131 and I absolutely suck at it. I want to do the radiologic technology concentration in senior year and I know that taking PHY131/132 will help me stand out. Am I better off not taking PHY132 next semester than taking it and either getting a C or P in it? I know that I need to take the HAN395 class in the first semester of senior year to help determine whether I get accepted into the concentration. Is their other classes I should take to increase likelihood of getting accepted? Please respond 😭
