I am an incoming freshman interning at a Chemical Engineering plant this summer. A lot of the work I do is shadow people around or take a few samples from time to time, but I also sit around and do nothing a lot of the time. I feel like if I had more skills to contribute I would be doing more work. I also feel like there are things I could be doing while sitting around that will also help me gain more skills to work if that makes sense. Iv'e learnt a lot of new things related to the plant but I also feel confused on a lot of things from time to time. What are some things I could do while i'm sitting around or ways you guys think I could contribute more in the plant? Thank you!

I got a moorehill 3rd floor room (double). If anyone wants to swap with anything lmk!

I am an incoming freshman at UT Austin and Im looking at the list of available first year signature courses. All the classes that I looked at that sounded really interesting to me were full already (they said closed). Is that it or will more spots open up? I just did not expect these classes to be full already because there are so many more people who need to do their orientation. Also if there was a first year course you really enjoyed feel free to add it. Thank you!

I am posting her because I genuinely need other peoples opinion, this isnt a vent or a rant. Basically I told my someone who is a pretty good friend of mine that has helped me get through some stuff personally that I would room with him at college. I was always just friends with him but I never really got too close to him but he has helped me get through a lot of things. I am having second doubts on rooming with him. He is basically known for being like a player when it comes to women. I never really cared about it until recently when my friend found out he cheated (it was a talking stage but was serious) on her with the girl she was beefing with. She was sobbing a lot an insane ammount and literally just drove home after and skipped school. I always knew he was a player but I never saw the extent to which it affects people before, and it genuinely hurt to see my friend in such a position because she is the kindest person I know and got done really dirty.

Other than that, ive heard that if I room with him, hes just gonna have sex all the time at my room from other people but I didnt really take this seriously because people say shit all the time but it seems like he will. She and some other people also told me that he seems nice on the surface but once you really get to know him you will realize his true colors.

I just dont know what to do because I agreed to room with him like 2 months ago and we have been talking about it ever since and I also feel like at least to me, he has been a very good friend (not that it excuses the other things he did). I also dont really know how to bring it up or the reason to give.

Thank you!

tl;dr having second thoughts of rooming with someone because I am finding out how much they treat others is affecting them.

I am an incoming freshmen for Chem E and I have absolutely no idea what I want to do in chem E. I have done stuff like research on lithium extraction before and I really like chemistry and physics and math as well, other than that, I really am not sure what I want to do. Part of me wants to become a doctor as well because I really like helping people but thats like everyone who wants to become a doctor so I dont know if thats something I should follow through with. On the bright side, the university I am in for is really good for my major, its just really hard to switch majors if I ever wanted to do that though.
