I'm only doing one class on campus this semester, and it's coding. Butt peepage levels are critically low.

Ckwiesr posted:Day three of into to programming, and the teacher asks us if everyone downloaded calico and Python. This 18 year old kid raises his hand, and said he tried googling it, but was only getting pictures of snakes. I loving wish he was joking, but he wasn't. Every programming class I've had so far has been a mix of complete idiots and people who argue with the professor about advanced poo poo that we're not even talking about.

Wait no, it's easy, because there are so many poses that I can't even attempt that I'm limited to routines and classes "recommended for those with arthritis" and can stand out by literally standing without assistance.

The base education office might have lost my obligation form that was supposed to be turned in 45 days after fall courses started. This better not turn into "lol, pay your tuition out of pocket".

Kind of a long shot, but has anybody in the guard/reserve gone through the process to convert REAP to post-9/11 GI bill?

You fill out the form online like a new application, then you check off "I understand that I will forfeit any other benefit if found eligible for the Post 9/11 GI Bill" and then you wait a million years for the paperwork to return. If you qualify, you're converted. If you don't, you get a nastygram with reasons why.

I did that thing where I figured out what the lowest grades are needed to graduate with a 3.5+. I am completely over school right now and there's 7 weeks to go. I will miss the butts, though.

Most of school is figuring out the least amount of effort you need to put into things to get your desired result. Much like life, really, but most kids going into college don't know this yet. When you get to grad school you will have to have this skill mastered, because trying to do everything is not really possible. Why yes, I would like to take 9 credit hours of classes, each with 2-3 hours of additional work per week in reading, while also being a [Teaching/Graduate/Research] assistant that consumes [5-35] hours of my week. For two years.

People who say working hard makes you successful are wrong. Working hard just makes you tired. Working smart makes you successful. Working smart also means making other idiots work hard for you.

My observation, having started grad school last Fall, is that 85% of humans don't realize that sitting at a desk, with all required work within arm's reach, and then spending 3 straight hours on facebook and buzzfeed is not actually effective. But if they do that, then complain, their friends will share sympathies and they'll all get a beer together. Then show up late to class the next day with halfassed work done at 6am, bitch about having gotten no sleep, etc. etc. Basically, professors ought to start actually failing people.

Missed out on applying for an internship with National Geospatial Intelligence Agency, turns out the applications were due in October. Might not have been accepted anyway because my experience with remote sensing was a bit limited at the time. Now trying to find something else preferably with the federal government. I burned through 17 credits last summer and barely worked so that kind of did a number on my savings. If anything else I want to make more than my know-it-all trainee is going to be making at his stupid insurance company internship.

Worst grade I've gotten in school was a C+ for American Sign Language 103. It was a mercy grade. That teacher had every right to fail me, but chose not to. She knew I had to get through her class for degree requirements.

After working with professors who were on tenure track, I think the first 5-6 years of their professorship in all honesty is just to make as little negative waves as possible. Then, after however many years it takes to get tenure they're burnt out as all hell and could give 2 shits less that Johnny Backwards cap ate his pencil during the test and took a poo poo on his paper to prove some anti-establishment movement, the bowel movement looked like a C so he got a 70% on his multiple choice quiz. Being a professor seems to truly suck in the academia portion if you're teaching anything below junior level classes. The only people I know that were straight up hard-assess were the graduate assistants that conducted all of our labs. Holy gently caress, there was at least one person in our office crying to one of the 4 GA's because of some ridiculous reason that they didn't turn in their homework or missed a test.

My experience with professors has been "Chilled out older person just waiting for death or retirement" but GAs are just there to make sure everyone hates the university experience as much as they did

I looked into doing ASL to fill my language requirement but that septic tank of a school I was going to wouldn't allow it because reasons I no longer give an ounce of thought about. I'll be going back to school this fall, far, far away from that miserable poo poo cistern of a university.

I'm in my third year of ASL to fulfill my colorado state language requirement. All in all it's alot easier than french or spanish. Decided to go for it when I hear the Coaches here like to funnel athletes that need language credits into it.

ASL is cool because it's only 50% of a language. Written component is English.

OMFG PTSD LOL PBUH posted:I started my first Cisco Networking Academy class today. Yo, Shim, what are you taking with Cisco Netacad? I've done a bunch of poo poo on there at college. Sometimes it's a bit dry and there tends to be a lot of product placement but I guess it's to be expected considering their goal is to train you with their products so you can write their certifications and pimp their poo poo to your bosses etc. Also soldering is seriously something that needs to be taught more. Super handy skill in IT, definitely worth learning.

Being a professor seems to truly suck in the academia portion if you're teaching anything below junior level classes. Oh man, profs with tenure. A couple semesters ago I had one who was really chill and we became buddies. We chat about technology and yoga butts and poo poo, it's great. Last semester (and now this semester) I had a guy who falls squarely in the "don't give a poo poo because I can't be fired lol" category, and he doesn't even try to hide it at all. Dude fell asleep while invigilating another prof's final. The next day he was supposed to do the same for a different prof and didn't even come in. Didn't call in sick, didn't book time off, just decided not to show up to work that day. Pretty much every afternoon session last semester he was at least ten minutes late for.
