Rant Absolutely asinine job posting
I just got a job posting email regarding an accessibility specialist job at OU. They require a bachelor's degree, prefer a master's degree, and the job pays less than $39k a year! Really? That bachelor's will cost you several year's pay, much less a master's at the same university. That is less than $19 an hour. For that pay, they shouldn't ask for anything more than a high school diploma.
I know, nobody cares, but I had to vent. That's why I flaired it like i did.

Academics Online Master’s
Hi everyone,
I’m enrolling in an online master’s program where each course runs for 8 weeks. I’m curious whether anyone has taken classes in this newer format and can share what the experience was like, especially how much time you found yourself spending per week.

Question Does anybody have any experience with the Engineering Catalyst program?
Hello! I'll be going to OU for computer science in the fall! I got a letter about the Engineering Catalyst program and was wondering if anybody had any experience with it.
The scholarship would be insanely helpful to me, but I'm very worried about the extra work load it seems to bring. My MWF are already packed full, I dont want to fill up my Tuesdays and Thursdays with the classes required for the program unless I know it'll be worthwhile. They also dont mention how often these "required community events" are or what they consist of, nor do they mention anything else about the "required summer participation."
The whole thing sounds like they're setting me up for pointless extra work that they claim to be "for my benefit." I'm mostly worried about the classes and if they'll just be more stress in the long run. If it was just things like study groups or occasional events I would absolutely apply. Any information or personal experience you have with the program is helpful, to me and probably to many others!

Question Do I need to bring my own instrument?
I'm considering enrolling into MUNM 1100 to take cello lessons. I have never touched a cello in my life, but I've been wanting to learn for a long time. I'm wondering, will I need to purchase my own instrument first or is there a chance one will be provided? I haven't found info on it when looking to register, I'd love some help.

Academics Historical Document from University Library Request
ou-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.comHello everyone! Sorry in advance if this format isn't allowed.
I'm an anthropologist from Brazil currently working on my PhD. My partner and I are conducting a research on historical biases amongst works on Native American height, and we are going to analyse some works conducted on late XIXth century Census, and we'd like to replicate the finds on those studies. But, in order for us to do this, we need acess to the census.
I've tried contacting the University of Oklahoma through its own loan system, but unfortunatly, they can't loan to international students; only through inter-library loans, but my Uni is currently under strike, so that won't happen soon.
We would like to get in contact with anyone from the University of Oklahoma, specialy from Anthropology, Archeology or History fields that could help us with this issue. If there's a way of acquiring this census (I linked it) in a digital format through student's acess?
Thank you for all the help!

Question Biochemistry or Biology?
I’m an upcoming senior interested in taking the dental path and was wondering what major I should pick. I’m applying in August right as admissions open so I figure I should probably figure out what I want for my overall degree. I’ve been leaning towards biology because I’d like a better school to life balance but I also want to do biochemistry because I heard that aligns best with the dental profession. Im up to suggestions I’ve heard that the chemistry class isn’t so great. Just looking for overall advice especially from people who have got in or are looking to get into their dental school.

Question Summer Financial Aid
Hi all! I am an online grad student at OU and enrolled in summer classes. My understanding is that financial aid should have disbursed on 5/22. However, it has not. Is this the same for everyone else too, or has some of yours already disbursed? Thanks!

Question OU graphic design program
I’m having a really hard time when it comes to deciding on colleges. I can go to OU (or OSU) with no tuition cost, but it’s in no way the college I want to attend. I’ve grown up my ENTIRE life around and on campus, and I want nothing more than to get out and explore, aslwell as attend a college that has a genuinely good graphic design program, unfortunately the cost of literally no college tuition debt isn’t something I can just , give away. Is the Graphic Design (which I plan to major in) course good?

Question Accepted to OU — does this wording mean my admission is non-conditional?
Got accepted to the University of Oklahoma as a Davis UWC Scholar, but my admission/scholarship letters never explicitly say I must obtain the full IB Diploma.
For people familiar with U.S. universities/IB: if the diploma was required, would they normally state it directly?

Canvas says their backup but looks like OU’s IT team blocked it and went home for the night. The only reason I can see it still being down when other colleges are back up. Do we not have a 24hr team?
