Discovered this little shop next to treehouse vintage store. Seems like they just opened up. Ice cream was fire and I got their matcha Jasmine! It’s defiantly more flavorful than other shops I’ve tried with matcha Jasmine. It has indoor seating and ac too! Seems like they just opened recently.

Transfer Orientation

7 Upvotes

Is orientation really mandatory? Is there any kind of administrative stuff I’d miss that may impact my classes? I’ve already registered for them, and I’ll have paid my tuition by then so I don’t see how it could affect me. Does anyone know if they take attendance? I’d appreciate any answers!!

is 16 units too much

4 Upvotes

Hi I’m an incoming freshmen and I’m really struggling to build a good schedule. With the classes I wanted to take I’m ending up with 16 units.

The classes I chose are MAT19A (4units), PSC 001 (4), PER001 (5), and MGT 012Y (3).
Per001 and MGT are my GEs but I’m not sure about them.

If anyone has any advice or experience with these classes pls lemme know ur thoughts. If I should just find easier classes or if these classes are doable for first year quarter.

Why is the Sun red?

The sun is red and it looks smoky, the Moon was red too near Davis last night. I would assume wildfire but it doesn’t smell like smoke and there are no reports of fire.

Jobs/Employment Why are entry-level on-campus UC Davis Handshake jobs so competitive?

8 Upvotes

I've applied to over 80 jobs for almost 2 months now as an incoming freshman and have gotten around 5-7 interviews responses, most of them rejections for the ones I wanted and only got in one of them (was a off campus math tutoring in woodland where I am unsure if I can carpool without a car). Are entry-level jobs really that competitive for most students? I am also a work-study student and I use AI while writing my cover letters.

Which Schedule

1 Upvotes

Trying to decide whether to take NPB 101 in fall or winter. Which schedule would you choose?

Option 1: NPB 101 in Fall

Fall:
BIS 103 — Monfared (same day final w npb 101)
EVE 100 — Ramirez
MMG 103L — Quides
NPB 101 — Smith / Joiner / Huising

Winter:
BIS 104 — Lin
NPB 101L — Bautista
NPB 143 — Tripp
RE: MMG 162 — Shah OR MCB 162 — Burgess OR MCB 150 — Draper

Option 2: NPB 101 in Winter

Fall:
BIS 103 — Monfared
EVE 100 — Ramirez
MMG 103L — Quides
BIS 181 — Comai / Sundaresan

Winter:
BIS 104 — Lin
NPB 101 — Caporale / Usrey
RE: MMG 162 — Shah OR MCB 162 — Burgess OR MCB 150 — Draper
NPB 101L would be in Spring with Option 2.

And if you’ve taken any of these classes with these professors, I’d appreciate your thoughts!

transferring from uc davis to a csu

2 Upvotes

hi! im going into my second year at uc davis and i was looking into transferring into a csu (specifcally csulb, csusm, sdsu) specifically regarding major bc davis doesn't have the major i want to switch into, and because it will be less expensive. i was wondering if anyone has any insight into this or experience? i understand the golden four must be completed and i was concerned about those courses from davis transferring or would it be safer i take them thru a cc? its just a bit complicated doing so while being enrolled at davis so i want to make sure doing all of this is worth it. worst case scenario i stay at davis for the next 3 years but ideally i can transfer. so if anyone has done it before any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

non ECS/ECE majors taking ECS classes

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I plan to take a CS minor, and I have finished most of my lower division classes (like ECS 32AB; still thinking about ECS20), so I am ready to take upper division ECS classes. I learned that those classes are very high-demand, and a lot of them are only open to certain engineering majors during pass one to make sure they fulfill graduation requirements.

So I wonder, what is the class registration like in pass 2? Will there still be some seats left, or will everyone in pass 2 end up on waitlists?

For reference, the upper divs I can choose from are ECS 113/115/116/124/129/161/163/164/166/170/174/179 and a few ECN and LIN classes.

ECS 113, 115, and 116 are designed for non-majors, so they don't have a Pass-time restriction; however they are often not offered, so I really need to have an idea of what my class registration will be like.

If any non-engineering majors who have taken engineering upper-division classes are willing to share their experience, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!
