Calc 1 Problem

Hi everyone.

I'm currently enrolled in a calc class I know won't work out for me based on the professor. Would there be a chance for me to get an open seat for a class somewhere else, or should I just bite the bullet and go through with the class? Please let me know if anyone has had this same issue and what you did to get through it.

Hi, I was considering joining the honors program, but I wasn't sure what the project entailed. If anyone has done one before I would like to hear about your experience.

Networking in the Raleigh Belt-Line

Does anyone here live within the belt line and not want to have to travel 20+ minutes just to study?

I’m near NCSU and it’s so annoying that the closest wake tech campus is 20+ minutes away. If anyone is interested in creating a wake tech study group where we all kinda body double at a library order something that would be great.

mat-172 online so lost

Just started mat-172 online and I'm so confused with everything. I'm great with algebra, but this stuff is just so much to take in all at once. I feel like it just throws you right in without much teaching and expects you to understand everything with technical explanations and a video every now and then. Anyone have advice??

What would happen if I accidentally parked in a staff parking spot on the first day of school?

So, yesterday was the first day of school and the parking situation was crazy. There was a lot of traffic, and I spent around 20 minutes trying to find an open parking spot. I eventually parked in a spot that I later realized was designated for staff. 

I honestly didn’t realize it was a staff spot until I came back to my car. I’m a student, and it was completely unintentional. What do you guys think is going to happen? Would I most likely get a ticket, warning? Has anyone accidentally done this before?

College Money Refund From Dean's List

My partner used to go to wake tech and would get refunds(?) every semester when they did well academically. Is this a thing that happens normally? I can't find anything on the website.

Eagle Advantage

has anyone opted out/opted into eagle advantage? the bookstore lady told me for my program (radiography) that I should opt out because I would be able to keep my books throughout the program. But because of the “big beautiful bill” my loan amounts have decreased which have caused my refund to decrease and I need that money for bills 😭 and my books were A LOT of money. i’m thinking about retuning them and opting back into it. Any thoughts?
