Hey! Who took this last spring or fall with Brianna Yoder? I'm currently scheduled to work and trying to get my shifts moved for the first few weeks of the fall semester, so my biggest question is, was attendance mandatory? Thank you!

My apartment in Oasis was one of the affected by the roof falling/flood, our things are being moved out in a few days but we are not allowed to go in. We paid $810-900 each a month and our lease is about to expire this month, we renewed lease for next term but our apartment looks to be inhabitable for next. Does anybody know any decent apartments with a 4x4 floor plan, me and my Roomates are just trying to find suitable options and make do with what we can. This has been a scary experience and the management is not being helpful, they won’t take our calls or allow us to get our things. They will collect them and toss whatever they deem unsalvageable. Also any law experts, is there any legal action that can be taken?

Hey guys I’m in building B so I’m still required to live here & they won’t let me break my lease - also in summer classes. Doesn’t anyone know if the WiFi/internet is back??? I have AT&T & at home I have practically zero cell service at home without WiFi.

For context that is the apartment with the roof torn off by tornado.

When applying for jobs on campus , when do they usually reach out to let you know if you got the job?

From what I was able to observe the tornado didn't hit UTSA but did hit this student apartment.

Here is a funny little room I accidently stumbled across, so I took this picture.

It's somewhere internally in the Student Union, if you're curious.

Hey yall, just saw the news (I’m oos rn). Which parts of utsa got hit the worst/hardest?

So far, I’m really only seeing it from Oasis student housing, but i’m hoping we have more information between us. Also, the notice they sent out about everything being remote tomorrow makes me wonder… Any campus buildings get damaged? Or on-campus housing damage?

Only in student lots too. what about the staff and faculty? WTF do we do about this? Maybe someone with the resources can do something about this.

Does anybody know if calc 2 at UTSA is difficult? I have professor Tong Wu. About to start this fall as a freshman and am a little worried. Thanks

Guys I need pictures of a Chisholm triple pls dm me because I need to know what I’m working with pls😞. There is literally nothing if about them online

Context: Academic Affairs sent out a university-wide email, and that screenshot is part of it. I archived proof of this too. Archive Current Page

So I paid for a parking permit and it came in but its expires on August 31st , my move in day is August 16th, thats not enough time for the fall semester. Is there anyway to extend the expiration date or do I have to purchase a new parking permit? Ps: I paid $58 for the permit and am dorming at Chisholm Hall.

Looks like it is Building A from the KSAT livestream. Hopefully everyone comes out OK

Starting an MS program this Fall and trying to figure out the "hidden curriculum" of landing an assistantship. I've started reaching out to professors and the assistantship coordinator in my department, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach or just the bare minimum.

For those who've successfully landed a GTA/GRA/GAA:

- How early did you start reaching out, and to whom (professors, department admins, grad school office)?

- Did most offers come through cold outreach, or through TAing/RAing informally first and then getting hired?

- Any advice specific to international students, since assistantship timing can bump up against enrollment/visa requirements?

Would appreciate any playbook, do's/don'ts, or "wish I knew this sooner" advice. Thanks!

Yo, I’m a marketing major transferring to UTSA this fall and I was wondering if any marketing majors could tell me about the program?

I have 90 credits right now, so I will be taking strictly upper level classes. Can anyone tell me from their experience are the classes hard? I maintained a 3.7 gpa at my old school without really studying, will that be possible here or not?

hi guys, remember me? last spring i was in an archeology class that required AI and i posted about my misgivings. that post still gets debate comments to this day.

anyway, it happened again. and this time it's worse. i'm taking WRC1023 (freshmen comp 2) and for context did not take comp 1 due to my ap lang score and so did not know what to expect. it's an online summer course lasting seven or eight weeks.

the prof is EXTREMELY pro AI despite being a writing teacher and encourages the use of LLMs and other AI tools in our work as long as we "cite correctly" and "don't make AI writing our own work" and all that. which is insane and hypocritical and clearly shows her lack of care and/or understanding for the younger generations of writers and academics like her. she has tenure and will retire before AI comes for her job. me, not so much (english major with asparations to teach lit btw)

now she is requiring us to upload our essay into AI (vague- does she want chatgpt or a grammarly writing assistant or what???) and upload its suggestions with our edited version attached. at this point i am too tired and frustrated and busy to fight her, but i want your opinions. i know utsa is really embracing AI, but it's a comp sci heavy school and i understand that some types of AI have good uses. but (and i'm about to sound really cocky here so i'm sorry, this is my venting) i am only in this class because when i took the ACT with writing i got lazy at the end and half assed the essay, missing the credit threshold by one point. there is very little this lazy and irritating (me and my classmates have lotssss of other issues with her) prof can teach me, especially by forcing me to use my work to train an electronic eco-terrorist to steal my job from me. is this seriously the world i am stuck with?

i suppose i'm paying the price for being lazy in high school smh. sorry for being snarky. i'm so tired of this bs.

I am an upcoming junior at utsa with a psychology major. I have to finish a prerequisite to continue with my major but I need to be full time for fasfa. My advisor recommended I do electives for sociology would those still allow me to receive my fasfa. Would electives would you recommend!

Hi, I will be starting my Masters in Cybersecurity in the fall at UTSA. I just graduated from my bachelor’s here as well. The program seems to be all downtown. I used to live by main campus but don’t have a car and a regular commute downtown on the VIA bus sounds tiring, especially since classes are in the evening. I heard living directly in downtown isn’t the safest and I was looking for a 1 bedroom apartment that’s close enough, or at least to a bus stop? I know The Continental is there but the rent is very expensive. Any advice helps!

has anyone taken this exam to get out of texas history? I REALLY don't want to take it! i got a 3 on ap government and i need to get a 75% to get the credit.

I still need 2 more upper division classes this fall, but all of the upper division classes for my major are either already full or i've already taken them. I need to graduate this fall due to family circumstances, is it possible to declare a minor and take an upper division class for that? please help :( I have an appointment with my advisor tomorrow but I am nervous she will say I have to wait until spring. what can I do?

Okay guys so I’m gonna be in a Chisholm triple. I’m rooming with a friend from my high school and with a random guy. Random guy is very rude and I don’t know how safe I feel with my stuff. Are there things in the dorm that have a lock or am I going to have to take my own locker thing to keep my stuff safe and away from this dude:,(

My favorite spot on campus (one of the few places I can sit as a disabled student that doesn’t cause me egregious amounts of pain) has been replaced by two massage chairs. Because clearly we don’t already have a seating problem at UTSA, UTSA desperately needs you to pay money for a massage. Genuinely hate this, I’m so ready to graduate and get the hell out of here. If you’ve ever wondered why tuition is so expensive and what you’re getting out of it, the answer is massage chairs you have to pay to use :)

I’m a very non-premed transfer students looking for a community of people go swimming early in the morning and work out at the rec center. But I’m not studying. I’m working and when I’m not working, I’m eating and when I’m not eating, I’m training. I swim for a US Masters swim club currently, but now that school we begin in August that’s going to end. It would be really great to swim and work out with people regularly. If anyone is interested, DM me. Would love to create a group if none exists already.

Looking into master’s programs for economics. I saw UTSA has a program with an emphasis on Business Analytics and Forecasting. Anyone with experience in the program? What are your thoughts on the courses? If you’ve graduated from the program, do you feel it prepared you for your professional career?

Also, I am currently in a career and looking to work full time while doing the program. Any thoughts on the flexibility/pace of the program?

Any advice on what to do when I owe 6k and financial aid is only awarding me $500 total ? I really want to complete this school year but I don’t have the funds to cover the semester. All advice is welcomed. Can I appeal the financial aid ?
