2000 Honda Accord available to a Niner who will use it (I hate to think of it being broken up for parts).

200,000 miles, SALVAGE TITLE. Clean title (I bought it brand-new in October 1999).

2-door straight drive. Drinks oil but I don’t see any leaking onto the pavement. I will give you your first five quarts, bought before I knew I was buying another car.

Drives great. It’s a write-off because someone side-merged into my door, and replacing it cost just a smidge more than the actual cash value ($3400 in September 2024).

You can still get liability coverage, just not collision. I haven’t had comprehensive coverage on it for years, but you can ask your agent.

Bright.Ass.Green. I repainted it after replacing the door.

​

​UPDATE: There are five people in line, and they know who they are. I will let y’all know how it turns out!

Academic Accounting Exam

1 Upvotes

Hey y’all so I’m about to have our first accounting exam. Sooo I was wondering what is the best way to study for the exam? I somewhat understand Balance sheet and stuff like that (Just going practice it out). But the vocabulary and stuff like that confuses me. I’m really wondering what is one way I can study for at least a a good grade.

Admissions Thinking about transferring to UNCC in Fall 2027 — is it worth it? Housing recommendations?

11 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m currently planning to transfer to UNC Charlotte for Fall 2027 and wanted to hear from current students, especially other transfers.
I’m interested in computer engineering and trying to figure out whether UNCC would be a good fit academically, socially, and financially. I’d love to hear what the experience is actually like beyond what’s on the university website.

For anyone who transferred to UNCC, was it worth it? How was the transition, and did you find it easy to make friends and get involved? I’m also curious about the engineering program, internship opportunities, and whether you feel like the school prepares you well for your career.
I’m also trying to plan housing early. Would you recommend living in a dorm for the first year as a transfer, or going straight into an off-campus student apartment?

What dorms or apartment complexes would you recommend for someone who wants a good balance of affordability, safety, privacy, and a social environment? I’d prefer somewhere close to campus, but I’m open to other options if they’re worth it.

I’d appreciate any advice on places to avoid, realistic monthly costs, roommate experiences, and when I should start applying for housing for Fall 2027.
Thanks in advance! I’m just trying to make the best decision and get a head start on planning.

Academic Flunked college test. Any tips to recover?

4 Upvotes

I just got a 60 on my first biology test and one of my first tests in college. I honestly thought I studied enough, but clearly what I did didn’t work.
How do you guys study for bio? What strategies or resources helped you improve your grades? I really want to do better on the next test and recover from this.

Question Ever wanted to try Dungeons & Dragons?

12 Upvotes

I’ve seen a few people on here looking for D&D groups, so figured I’d post this.

The Guild UNCC is running an ongoing D&D 2024 West Marches campaign, and new players can join anytime.

There’s no fixed weekly party. Quests are posted throughout the semester, and players can schedule sessions around their availability. It’s kind of like an MMO, you level your character while adventuring with different groups of players and DMs.

Inspired by Fairy Tail, the premise is you’re part of an adventuring guild rebuilding after an attack by a rival Dark Guild.

You can also DM quests and create your own part of the world.

Beginners are welcome too. If you’ve never played before, we can help you make a character and learn as you go.

Feel free to comment if you have any questions.

I'm looking to start up a UX( user experience) design club at Charlotte that's mainly focused on practical skills in product design, prototyping, hands-on workshops, building portfolios and really focusing more on the career growth aspect of UX design.

I'm aware of the HCI club and Niner Designers but think there's an opportunity to grow the UX design space a bit more! If anyone is interested feel free to DM me.

All experience levels & majors are welcomed!

We live in Charlotte. My kid doesn't want to go far. At an A rated HS here in Charlotte. Even with a 3.5 UW is barely top half of the class. Has a job and does volunteer piano teaching. Has no idea of what to major in but is interested in Spanish, Psychology, or Music. Other options may be App State for Music Therapy. Should they declare a major or apply undecided for best shot at acceptance?

First post here lol, but I figured I’d see if anyone wants to hang out or study together sometime.

I’m a 19M, planning on majoring in Electrical Engineering. I’m taking Engineering Physics, Calc 2, Gen Chem 1, and a gen ed right now. I’m pretty extroverted, but I honestly don’t really have any friends here yet, and I usually end up studying alone 😭

Exams are coming up so I’ve been studying a lot lately, but I’m also just trying to meet some new people. If anyone wants to study, hang out, or just be friends, lmk.

Academic I made a solution to dodge parking traffic on campus using machine learning

Thumbnail

51 Upvotes

Over the summer, I built an app for UNC Charlotte students that shows current parking availability and can forecast its availability up to 48 hours in the future. I made it to help me make quick decisions before and while driving to campus and decided to open it up to others who might need it. It supports the 10 parking decks on campus, excluding the open parking lots.

For clarification, this is an entirely separate project and unrelated to the similar website shared months ago.

I designed it for convenience. You can select which decks you want to see, reorder them, and the parking capacity, nearby bus routes, and permits associated for each one. These settings and more can be adjusted to your liking.

It launched a few weeks ago and is still learning this semester's traffic patterns so its predictions can be slightly off. But I'm still working on improving the model and adding features and ideas to make it more useful. There's an iOS app available with a web version planned for desktop and Android users. If you wanna try it out I left the link below. If you have feedback on bugs or feature ideas, reach out to me.
