This is a question specifically for people whose major/minor/classes involves coding: do you guys actually study the code?

Because I have computer science and engineering friends and they’re always talking about how much work they have but never about how much code they need to study.

Even online, it’s all “college is so hard, all my assignments are so hard blah blah blah” but never actually about the studying part and how time consuming it is to learn code.

I ask ppl how they study and code, and it’s always “uhh idk I just do it”, like is everyone gatekeeping or something 😭

I'm currently an Information Sciences (DIMA) major and Applied AI minor, planning to work in Healthcare + IT as someone who "specializes" in Applied AI, and was wondering if there's ever a 4 + 1 Masters program for Applied AI (CECS), if it would be worth going after?

I'm scared that my skills won't be enough with just the minor because my major is pretty much useless, and since my minor is applied and not engineering, will getting my masters help me or is it not worth it?

Anyone who is currently doing the minor and is getting wrapped up, how valuable do you think your skills currently are?

I've moved into my apartment on campus away from my parents, and I feel so lonely, empty, and soulless. I know exactly why I am feeling the way I am, and I know it gets better as time passes, but right now I don't know what to do to soothe myself.

When I'm away from my apt, I dread coming back. Even thinking about it makes me feel nauseous, and like there's a knot in my stomach. When I'm in my apt, I keep missing my parents (homesickness). I miss the chatter, I miss having someone who really knows me for me somewhere around the corner, and I miss how comfortable everything was. Now, when I come back to my apt from work, I'm greeted by emptiness and darkness.

None of my roommates have moved in yet, but I already know we'll just stay in our own rooms. They're very shy and awkward, and it drains my social battery talking to them. None of my friends have moved in yet, and I know spending time with them won't heal anything either, it's just a temporary fix.

I want to be able to be comfortable in my apt, and not dread coming back after visiting my parents (they only live 20 mins away from me - for now) or after a long day of hanging out with my friends.

I know I need this experience to prepare me for when I move to a walkable city after graduation, but damnnn is this harder than I thought. I was so excited to move in, and am so happy that I did, but fuckkk do I hate my mental situation right now.

Hey everyone! I have two unrestricted electives left over the next two years (one for Spring 27, one for Spring 28) and I want to use them for something fun.

I'm really into music...ideally I'd love a class that teaches music production using a DAW, learning to sing, dance, or anything along those lines. I've looked into the MUTC (Music Technology) courses but they seem less focused on actually making songs and more on the technical/academic side, so I'm not sure those are what I'm looking for.

I just want something I can actually use after graduation as a hobby tied to the music industry in some way, whether that's production, singing, dancing, performing, etc. (lol idk)

Has anyone taken/know a fun creative classes they'd recommend? Would love to hear what's actually worth taking!

I’m only a sophomore right now, but I know I want to move to Chicago after I graduate.

I just don’t understand how people actually pull that off...moving from Tennessee to a new city, finding roommates, getting an apartment, and landing a job all at the same time.

Like, what’s the order here? Do you find roommates first (and how are people even doing that?), then get an apartment, and just hope you land a job in time? Or do you secure a job first - maybe stay with your parents in the meantime - and then try to figure out housing and roommates afterward?

And how are people even getting jobs in Chicago while they’re still living in another state? Or do you get a job where you already live and then ask to relocate to Chicago later or something? 😭😭😭
