Megathread List

20 Upvotes

Hey y'all,

There has been a lot of the same type of post on the sub recently so we're testing out a new change.

In addition to the already in-use housing search thread, we're adding two new megathreads. Friend search and class/prof feedback.

For now, please post in these threads instead of directly on the subreddit.

Non-campus Housing Megathread

Friend Search Megathread

"How is Professor/Class?" Megathread

We're open to feedback, so treat this post as a feedback forum for this new rule.

ETA: This has to be done this way because (old) reddit only allows pinning two posts at a time. If you're on the new interface this post is redundant.

Campus WiFi

9 Upvotes

It’s my 4th year here so I’m no stranger to the bad WiFi that occurs the first few weeks of classes but I’m going insane. All my classes are online except 1 and I’m so ADHD I have to do my shit on campus after my 9:30 or i won’t do it at home. WHERE CAN I GO ON CAMPUS WHERE THE WIFI ISN’T TRASH PLS!! Give me recommendations!!! Preferably not in the heat, thank you.

Emailed my university department because I’m uncomfortable in a professor’s class, they just ignored me. What am I supposed to do now?

9 Upvotes

wondering if anyone else has dealt with something like this or knows what I should do next.

I’m currently in a CS class where I’ve watched the professor lash out at students and talk to people in ways that I felt were pretty inappropriate and disrespectful. None of it has been directed at me personally, but seeing it happen to other students has made me really uncomfortable being in the class.

I recently had a change in my work schedule that means I may need to leave class about 5–10 minutes early to make it to work on time. Normally I would just explain the situation to the professor, but based on some of the interactions I’ve seen with other students, I’m kinda anxious about even bringing it up.

So I emailed the department and explained what was going on.I asked if I could move to another section of the exact same class with a different professor.

They just never responded.
I know departments are busy, but this is pretty time-sensitive since the semester has already started, and the longer I wait, the harder it’s going to be to switch sections.

I’m also trying to deal with this before something actually happens between the professor and me. I don’t really think I should have to wait until I’m the student getting yelled at or treated disrespectfully before saying that I’m uncomfortable with the environment.

Has anyone at TXST dealt with something similar? Who should I go to next if the department just isn’t responding?

Parking after 5

Upvotes

I’m a commuter and one of my classes starts at 6:30 pm. Most of the lots say that they are open parking after 5:00pm the lot near McCoy has the same sign but many of the spots are marked “red permit only” or “residential only”. Can I park in those spots after 5 or am I only allowed to park in the unmarked spots?

Jobs nearby?

4 Upvotes

HI! I'm a freshman, and I'm new to town. I'm having trouble finding a job. I applied to a bunch on Handshake, but it was a while ago, and I only heard back from one of them, which was a rejection. I also applied for Chick-Fil-A in the LBJ, and got an interview, but they rejected me as well. In addition, I applied to two different positions at Target, and my application was rejected for one of them, and the other is still under review. I'm just wondering what places I could potentially apply to. I don't know town that well, but I am in walking distance to the Square, if that helps. I applied to Kerbey Lane Cafe, still waiting to hear back. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!
