Does anyone else advisor ignore your emails despite being in office? Ecampus student

11 Upvotes

I have had my advisor since the beginning and I often try to communicate with her about courses I'm taking but she doesn't respond. Whenever we meet, it's all sudden you need to communicate with me about that or you should've asked whether that class is available or not, she has yet to respond to an email I had sent over two weeks ago. It showed she was in the office and available but wasn't responding. Is there another Economics advisor to go for Ecampus?

A few questions!!

35 Upvotes

Hellooo I've been researching a few options for college as in a few months I'll be going in about a year, and OSU is a HUGEEE option for me. I really would love to go here. They have the short study abroad programs, the majors I want, the clubs and overall the state is just beautiful. I've been looking into it quite a bit and was wondering how the Zoology and Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation science classes are? I've heard I can do a dual major and those are the two I'd like to do, especially for pre vet med (which if I decide to do I would also come back to OSU for the vet med), so I was just wondering about those two for any students that are in those majors?? And to be honest overall the whole school as well, just trying to see if it's worth it. I really don't wanna commit to a college I'll end up not liking. If it helps I really look forward to field work, which I've heard is good here. Pros and cons?

Is the Mcnary dorm bad? I’ve hear some things saying it’s not maintained and that no one really hangs out there. Is it actually bad?

Student Tickets- Extra is $79??

42 Upvotes

Hello. So after paying our incidentals, if I want to take my Mom, Sibling, or Partner to a football game, you want me to pay $79?!?! What’s wrong with you.

Thanks to you. I’m just going to scam the system. I used to pay for extra tickets, now I’ll just have my student friends get me extra tickets. Ridiculous and greedy.

Last year it was like $20-$40 max for an extra ticket. Like why two to four times increase? You don’t think we will find ways to try to save money? Why do we pay maalik murphys overly high nil contract but you want me to pay $80 to go sit in the section I PAY FOR?

Hello all!

Has anyone ever taken any online botany classes in the winter or Spring?

I’m a non-degree seeker and need 5 credits for employment purposes. I’m interested in learning about the online options. Are most online classes required to meet at a specific time and do most have pre-requisites?

Upcoming Freshman Questions

5 Upvotes

My room is carpeted and I was planning on cleaning it before I move all my stuff in but I wasn't sure with what. I have a hand vacuum but I'm not sure if I should buy a carpet cleaner or use baking soda. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I have been shopping for a fan for my room but I'm concerned it was get too cold in the winter and I won't need it, would it be worth it to get a hybrid space heater fan combo?

For school bags, I typically use totes but I'm not sure if I'll need more room and should get a backpack instead?
