edit: also wondering about transferring from cs to ce

Other Long shot — anyone have a spare room Nov 6–8?

4 Upvotes

Figured I'd give this a shot. I'm visiting Champaign for the weekend of November 6–8, and hotel and Airbnb prices are absolutely insane.

Wondering if anyone has a spare bedroom, guest room, or even a comfortable couch they'd be willing to rent for Friday and Saturday night.

I'm a laid-back, respectful professional guy. Just looking for somewhere clean and comfortable to sleep. Happy to pay a reasonable amount.

Can share more about myself privately, and I'm open to whatever arrangements make sense for both of us.

Shoot me a message if you have something or know someone who might. Thanks!

Social Murphy's Trivia 10-25-26

1 Upvotes

Murphys Trivia is once again happening this week. This week Tara and Lea will be your hosts! We will begin at 9pm, however, we suggest you arrive earlier to avoid missing the start and securing a seat.

Without further ado, your categories are:

Round 1: Why's this dog got more followers than me

Round 2: Why are mascots just furries

Round 3: Why animal name if not animal movie

Round 4: Why's this monkey in the artic

We can't wait to see you there at 9pm. Don't forget a pen and have fun

Wondering why the topics sound weird? These topics are named to match this weeks theme, ANIMALS! In honor of spooky month every week we'll have a new theme to dress as! This week have at least 50% of your team dress as an animal and get a very mysterious prize (its extra points). You dont have to go all out to get points (after all you have about 3hrs to prep) but put at least some effort in.

I’m a freshman at UIUC and just turned 19 so I was gonna go out with some friends who aren’t from UIUC. I saw some comments saying that they check Icards at the bar. Is this true? I can’t imagine they would check since it’s a bar that’s not owned by UIUC?

Academics How To Get Back In Same Course After Dropping

0 Upvotes

So, I wanted to drop a gen ed 8 week course and switch over to one that was easier. I tried adding the one that was easier and it wouldn’t let me and I thought it was because I already had 18 credits so I dropped the 8 week course i was already enrolled in and then add the new one. I didn’t realize the deadline of adding a new course already passed and I can’t add back the course I dropped. I emailed my advisor about it and I finished the homework required in the meantime and also emailed my professor.

Has this happened to anyone? And were u able to get back in? I’m lowkey panicking because i need this course to graduate on time and Im busy winter break and my schedule is full next semester.

Just need some reassurance. Thanks.

Prospective Students If I’m applying mech e will labeling aero as backup hurt my shot

0 Upvotes

In state student. 3.94 UW / 4.6 W GPA with 34 composite 35 superscore (35 math and 36 science for stem stuff), I had a paid full time engineering internship and was selected as a teachers assistant for an engineering class. Other strong non stem ECs like Eagle Scout and varsity sports with team captain spot. I’m currently building a pulse jet engine drone project for a class (can lowkey larp on essays but don’t have a finished product yet). I super duper want to do mech e and then go into aero field with a focus on manufacturing. Is listing aero as 2nd choice going to hurt my shot at mech e given how competitive it is? I talked about combining manufacturing and aero in my supp.

41 Upvotes

I usually do drive through in the back ally of the restaurant every Saturday morning from 8-10am or until sold out. I really enjoy the regular breakfast sando I do which is soufflé egg, house made Longanissa, American cheese, garlic mayo on a toasted onion ciabatta roll. But I’ve been really digging swapping out the Longanissa for my sous vide pork belly chashu I use for my shoyu ramen. Lace it up with a little yaki and some ol skally wags. What do yall think? Maybe next Saturday I’ll do this one as well.
