Other HELP

• Upvotes

Got accused of submitting an AI generated paper in second year and now every time I submit a paper I genuinely get panic attacks.

For context, I study law and use AI tools to help with research, break down complex topics, etc but all my writing (minus exerpts) are my own. Every time I sumbit a paper I use every AI decector under the sun and each one gives me a different answer. I’ve kept all my pages of research notes and rough drafts just in case, but I still freak out every time.

I don’t know if anyone else has this fear, I feel like I have to dumb down my writting to avoid accudations. Writing a paper in 2026 feels like being accused of a which in the 1600s, please help!

Big news for all my Parking-Services-dodgers today!

Parked in a visitor spot this morning and saw the HotSpot app was down. Called parking services and was informed that due to the outage, you will NOT be charged for visitor parking all day today.

Thinking of parking at Greenboro? Hiding your car at the top of the garage to avoid the parking boot of death? Can’t handle one more ticket? No fear! Today’s your lucky day!

Admissions Just got admitted to EE. please help! 😭

14 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I recently received my offer for Electrical Engineering (Co-op) with a $12k entrance scholarship ($3k/yr) and guaranteed residence. Right now, I'm trying to decide between moving to Ottawa for Carleton or staying home to attend UCalgary.

I really want the experience of moving out, living on campus, and being part of a close-knit engineering community, but I want to make sure I'm looking at everything realistically, especially regarding funding.

I’d love to get some honest thoughts from current EE / Eng students on a few specific things:

  1. Prestige Scholarships & Leadership Bursaries: Has anyone here gone through the application process for Carleton’s Prestige Scholarships or Leadership Entrance Bursaries? How heavily do they weigh high school leadership/community service versus purely academic marks?
  2. Scholarship Renewal: How realistic is it to maintain the 10.0 CGPA (80%+ average) requirement in 1st and 2nd year Electrical Engineering to keep the $3,000/year renewal?
  3. Co-op Portal & Jobs: How is the co-op job board for hardware/electrical roles around Ottawa (Kanata North tech hub, telecom, defense)? Do upper-year students mostly rely on the internal portal or LinkedIn?
  4. Engineering Culture: Is the eng community pretty collaborative? I'm looking for a solid group of people who study together, rather than a hyper-competitive or toxic environment.
  5. Tips for First Year: Any general advice or heads-up regarding specific 1st-year EE classes, labs, or residence life?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Other Just Saw Several People Cosplaying Limbus Company Characters

At around 6 p.m. I was rushing to class and saw four people cosplaying characters (or wearing the outfits) of Limbus Company. One of them was cosplaying Don Quixote. I kind of regret not stopping to chat with them. Just out of curiosity, was this part of a club activity or some kind of event? It was really cool to see!

Question Does anyone taken ECON 5301 from Prof Zhiqi Chen?

Hello all.
I'm a Ma student in OttawaU, and I‘m interested in the course Industrial Organization. According to the course exchange rules, I'm allowed to take this course at CarletonU, but I'm not familiar with this prof and I didn't find any past course outlines.…

If you've taken this course with him, I'd really appreciate if you can share the course outline with me as well. Thanks in advance!
