Let's have a college/university/secondary education thread for all of us Sup Forums students. Post your college, shitpost about it/others, give advice, etc.
I'm expecting Sup Forums to make fun of me for going to U of H for Electrical Engineering, but whatever.
The world needs more electrical engineering people. Too many pajeet tier people being churned out by "comp sci". I my self almost fell for the comp sci meme. Thank god.
Thomas Stewart
It's a fun major man. Actually being able to see your work physically and practically apply it to the real world? Priceless.
Mason Russell
neuroscience major reporting in, am I fucking up?
Jordan Clark
>neuroscience >fucking up You're pretty damn secure yo. I'd just get your bachelor's degree at Ohio and aim higher for graduate school, but that's just me. You do you.
Adam Campbell
Not as gud as I hoped. CS.
Zachary Parker
EE, Uni of Montenegro
The only advice I can give you, study often and long, or you'll end up like me. I passed about 1.5-2 years worth of courses in the last 4 years, I'm 23 and got a nice deeeeep depression going on for me. Procrastination could very well be the only true deadly sin.
Christian Rodriguez
feels good fâm
Luke Wood
Not a bad school it's just a shame your football team is shit.
Logan Johnson
im studying EE btw.
this. love that kinda shit
Bentley Fisher
Future comp sci single honors reporting in. Hoping to go into academia, any tips?
Brandon Green
I've got something like 20 friends that go there. At the very best I have heard neutral things about it. Most people have pretty horrible things to say about the professors and the school in general. Only content ones are the ones who already have jobs basically lined up and just need the degree for the sake of it.
Levi Adams
unless you're going to a top tier uni (ivy league) prepare to be unstimulated, intellectually. CS courses are dumbed down quite a bit, as it's a cash cow for the education business, and can't be a cash cow if most students fail the first semester.
it might pick up in your junior and senior years, but the biggest problem you'll have to face is being evaluated against normies with no programming experience
Brody Phillips
100% accurate at lower levels.
If you can make it past year 2 things get a bit better, but it's good enough for me and lets me live at home so I'm good.
Angel Edwards
I'm not american, Im going to a decent tier uni (top 30) in the UK. Going since its close, it apparently doesnt matter for undergrad, and I wasnt all that keen on the arrogance of the russel group students.
Ian Anderson
I'll be receiving a major of their choice soon.
I put code monkey degree as the last choice.
Luke Robinson
i'm australian m8
glad to hear it's better in the motherland tho
Levi Moore
Well, I mean there are shit unis here where you will get nowhere, but apparently the one Im aiming to go to is not one of them. It has a 100% graduate level job employment for my specific course. $33k USD average first salary.
Easton Hernandez
UH sucks so bad in comp sci, the only good prof there is based scala man Phil Johnson
Asher Sullivan
Are you a Haole? Shit gets hard here being one man.
Carter Howard
What's that chart about?
Christopher Brooks
born&raised, in my mom's basement spending most of my days (outside of going to class)
i feel bad incredibly for any kid that goes here from out of state
Liam Barnes
Who else here /NYC/?
Wyatt Gonzalez
UH senate talking about tom apple being a retard with budget
Cameron Smith
I mean it's not too bad. I don't get too ostracized or anything, it's just obvious that they think I'm different and all. Luckily I'm native american so once I explain that, locals and I are usually a bit more chill when we level about people stealing our land and shit.
Isaiah Johnson
Anyone else /Electronic Engineering/ here? 1st year here.
Chase Roberts
i was talking about the housing, just don't try to be a wannabe local and you should be fine. most of the racism to white kids stays in high school.
Nah man, this place isn't mine, I'd never try to pretend like it is.
Oh yeah, housing is nuts. Cost of living here is ridiculous. Price you pay I guess.
Hudson Rivera
>i'm native american >i'll never pretend this place is mine
so, you're a faggot who blames your social awkwardness and immaturity on a fact that isn't even true (that you are native american)?
Lincoln Sanchez
>hawaii are you even reading
Noah Clark
Lol. I'm Cherokee man, I have no right to call Hawaii my place. I already have one, I'm just lucky to live here.
Carson Hernandez
Their comp sci program is actually pretty good. >source: am brainwashed A&M CS major
Kevin Russell
I would have been /NYC/ if Columbia didn't reject me. Decided to go to Stony Brook instead.
Joshua Cox
bamp
Angel Smith
Are you from upstate NY?
Jeremiah Martin
Finishing 1st year of university. Time to stop fucking around and leave, I'm just gonna flip burgers where no one can see me. How viable is that job or am I going to get replaced by a robot soon?
Austin Campbell
Is it? I'm at UT and two of my friends transferred from A&M CS because they said it wasn't.
Then again, I heard a recruiter saying he would prefer A&M CS graduates over UTCS, so I'm not sure what to believe between both schools.
Mason Flores
Cooks are not going to be replaced any time soon because running a kitchen can be a nightmare. Good cooks are always in demand and have a world wide mobility as journeymen and engineers.
Michael Baker
That's probably because he went to A&M.
Juan Rivera
Grad student in atmospheric science. Used to live in Illinois and now I'm in upstate NY. Quite the change.
Who /fortran/ here?
Colton Sanchez
>tfw I'm originally from upstate but I've never been to Albany How is it there?
Ian Perry
Ay Sup Forums,
I just checked my grades and I got a C in Matrix Algebra. How fucked am I in the future?
Also what should I do to prepare for Advanced Object Oriented Programming in the Fall?
David Morales
>Also what should I do to prepare for Advanced Object Oriented Programming in the Fall? Program.
Eli Moore
Why would you really even be fucked? Employers don't give a rat's ass about your college grades.
Nicholas Fisher
Learn Hindi so you can cheat off the Indians.
Jaxon Johnson
honestly, don't drop out. i dropped out, and my life sucked for 7 years until i had enough money and realised i need to get by ass back into school and complete my degree.
it's harder out there than you know. also stop doing drugs while you're enrolled in college.
Jonathan Scott
UT's CS school is a lot better than A&M. It's like 8th in the country or something.
Aiden Diaz
well, it means you're an average student. not special or advanced, just average.
as an average student, it will be all the more impressive if your future self invents something game changing.
Evan Sanders
Technical University of Denmark here.
Boy do I love the smell of despair during exams. I'm about to fail an EE exam tomorrow myself. Wish me luck.
Tyler Morgan
Good luck
Colton Myers
T-thanks.
Jaxon Wilson
It's just that I never worked hard in all my academic life. I'm not used to studying so I'm having a hard time now in university. I have this project in C and have no will whatsoever to do it. I like computers but I'm slowly learning that maybe not the programming part, it's boring as fuck.
Ian Miller
UGA? Where are you at?
Jose Carter
Why am I majoring in pure math?
Lykke til til deg, dansker.
Eli Foster
How hard is it to transfer into? I am at the Galveston campus right now.
Asher Scott
University of Alabama in Huntsville. (UAH)
Pretty good. Way better if you're an aerospace engineering major. The CS majors like myself take a backseat to it all, but whatever.
Christian Bailey
Maybe a bit off-topic OP, but have you ever visited any of the observatories there? I know an engineering student who was telling me how awesome it is to look at stars from mountain tops in Hawaii.
Carson Cook
because it's fun
Nathaniel Ross
excuses are like arseholes
Brayden Garcia
How so?
Carter Hernandez
everyone has one
Landon Morales
Any other ND fags on here?
Nolan Harris
Enrolled at Michigan Technological University as an electrical engineer. Starting this fall. How'd I do?
Wyatt Reyes
Not everyone
Christopher Bennett
Anyone here from the University of Washington?
Jaxon Gutierrez
*raises paw*
i-i am
Tyler Bell
Not being educated. Though I am thinning of going back for a PhD in computer engineering. UCSD.
Christopher Anderson
Yup
Isaiah Walker
I know there was someone from UCF last time we did this thread where you at senpai
Carson Rogers
m8 what year
Chase Anderson
Yeah, it's true. Gorgeous view.
Gabriel Adams
Oh shit boi, what are you studying?
Julian Martin
One really cool thing that came out of the university of Hawaii is the Aloha protocol. It allowed development of Ethernet and other variations really improved wireless access methods. I would say it is still widely used today although it may not be credit as such. Never be ashamed of your place of education. The important thing is what YOU do with it.
Anthony Myers
Liberal arts, specifically women's history
Nicholas Lee
Any Cal Poly cucks here?
Jonathan Barnes
Holy b8
Jaxson Morales
What I was trying to say is that I was always lazy and hated studying unless the topic really interests me.
Henry Howard
I'm father jenkins.
Alexander Diaz
desu I'm just surprised another ND bro is on here considering everyone would shit on Sup Forums constantly in senior computing ethics
James Cooper
Pretty good
My mom went there, then Cornell for grad school.
Austin Clark
Just got my B.S. in management information systems and starting masters in business analytics and information system management. How am I doing Sup Forums?
Xavier Martin
Honestly surprised anyone at ND even knows what Sup Forums is. Probably from vague references on plebbit...
>ethical and professional issues >93 enrolled
Holy shit that's a huge class... CS is overflowing
Lincoln Hall
Also >no data structures and algorithms til junior year Hahaha CS fucked you
Nathan Sullivan
what grade did you get in Pointy Hairstyle Studies?
Kevin Peterson
CS really did fuck us, somehow most of us got good jobs though
the amount of reddit references is insufferable
Cameron Stewart
I think I could get the same job/pay with or without an university degree
should I drop out Sup Forums?
Adrian Stewart
get the job, then drop out.
Juan Murphy
Tune in, Turn on, then drop out.
Jose Barnes
That's good to hear, I think Ramzi is finally turning the department around... way too late IMO
Mason Reed
Our class shat all over the department in our exit interviews
Camden Nelson
can't wait to leave these miserable fucks behind for the summer
John Howard
My coworker went there, she loved that everyone actually knew math, no liberal arts majors.
Robert Brooks
I like the school a lot and I like my friends here but the autism is real.
Jacob Martinez
Good. Deserved it. Did anyone from your class go to the big 5? I noticed they've been recruiting here more.
