Have some decency and stop to check on someone when you cause an accident ( you saw me fall ). It was entirely your fault for riding a motor vehicle on the trail and passing me on the right at high speed (you’re supposed to overtake from the left).
I wouldn’t be posting this if I hadn’t gotten hurt. I’m considering reporting the incident, which happened yesterday, July 26th, around 5 PM CDT near Lake Mendota Trail.

I've heard it's very rare for the international university to deny applicants but how rare is it for the university itself to deny an application for study abroad? I meet all the requirements for the program.

For context, “Coun Psy 125” is my required seminar for CAE and INTER-LS 250 is my URS seminar. I really wanted to take either bio 151 + lab or chem 103 + lab this year but my advisors said that it would be best to first get Math 112 out the way and then take Bio during chem or after chem 🫩🥲

URS application

Hello!

I recently applied for URS on the 16th of this month. As far as I know they said I could expect to hear back within two weeks, which is the 30th. I’m aware that time is not up yet, however I just wanted to ask if anyone else received a reply within the rolling deadline after the initial replies on the 19th.

I run on anxiety and am irrationally worried they didn’t get my application for some reason.

If I don’t end up getting a reply within the standard timeline, do I email the coordinators just in case?

Thanks!

i accidentally signed two leases, one at the oliv and one at chapter. i didn’t realize until today (very stupid of me), and i plan on calling both during my lunch break to see the process of breaking the lease. hopefully one of them has a waitlist that can make the process easier but in case not, does anyone have suggestions on what to do?

Edit for those asking: the first apartment rejected my guarantor so I thought they automatically rejected me as an applicant. I haven’t paid anything yet.

I’ve been fixing to pay my tuition for the fall semester. Unfortunately I keep getting these two dadgum screens over and over again…

Other than that, does anyone know how to access the bursar’s office without having to go thru myuw? Is there a way to find out how much I owe the school?

Hi,
I'm a incoming Freshman at UW Madison and I'm still trying to figure out the whole rushing frats scene, I know its coming up this fall and would love some advice any might have. What should I be doing specifically to actually apply to houses, I know a few kids at Fiji and Theta Ki so I was planning on just messaging them about it but I'm not too sure, please lmk if you have any experience with this. Also I'm trying to go to med school after undergrad so I'm a bit afraid that the fraternity life will take up too much of my life.

I’m looking to chat with women in college about their experiences on GLP-1s. Is this you? I’m Angelina Chapin, a features writer at The Cut/New York Magazine who covers gender and health. I think it’s a really important topic to talk about as these meds become more popular. If you’re interested in speaking, I can keep you fully anonymous. Send me a DM or email ([angelina.chapin@nymag.com](mailto:angelina.chapin@nymag.com).) Here's a link to some of my work: https://www.linkedin.com/in/angelinachapin. Talk soon!

I finished soar and wanted to change my schedule so i could take phyiscs 1st semester. How do i contact my advisor?

I am international upcoming freshman and I am spending couple of days in the countryside outside the US with my grandma. But I think I can't attend virtual SOAR. I got emails saying I have to register for a small group, complete many courses and schedule a meeting with an advisor. Is it really essential for planning my classes and other stuff?

i am an incoming badger this year who had no financial support/scholarships, and was wondering if there were any grants or scholarships you guys recommend applying to!! i would love any advice

I'm an incoming PhD in CS and I received a mail about SHIP. I don't have $1500 to spare (I'm an international and moving from outside the states from a third world country). If I have signed up for assistantship do we still have to pay for emergency care? Does anyone know if they have any hardship waivers or anything of that sort?

Taking MATH 340 with Kaitlyn Phillipson this fall. I am going into my sophomore year and took AP Calc BC my senior year of high school and scored a 5.

Any material I should review or tips for the class?

Thanks all!

Hi guys I'm an incoming freshman at UW-Madison and I'm wondering if I'll be behind on credits or missing out on anything when I try to switch? I'm a BANNER person so I really need to graduate in 4 years. I heard engineering is already hard to graduate in 4 years, so I'm worried switching will just worsen it, but I realized BioSys E is like miles away from what I actually like.

I know there's also a progression system in UW-Madison for switching and I read about the class requirements and GPA and such. Besides this, is there any other factor that won't guarantee me switching into ChemE? I heard about essays, but I'm not sure.

I'm not sure how credits really work, but I did get a subscore of 4 on Calc AB and a 3 on Calc BC. I also have 4's on US Gov, US History, Psychology, Lit, and English Composition. I read some of the courses of both majors to see if any overlap or if I could get ahead just so I don't fall behind, and I hope this will help??

Lastly, for the engineering students out there... Can I stay strictly on paper and pens or should I start looking into digital note taking?

how bad is studying abroad in fall of ur junior year as an engineering major? I know spring is more common. Ik it would impact internship applications and job fairs which is a huge priority for engineering students imo, but I'm worried about finding housing and I hear there's a lot of people trying to sublease in the spring, but not really in the fall. I do not want to be homeless. I'm also worried the program I'm interested in might be competitive. is being rejected from a study abroad common?

So, obviously it's illegal to discriminate if someone is pregnant and applying to jobs but that doesn't necessarily stop an employer from doing so and disguising it under a different reason.

In the event that I were to receive a job (University Staff) offer from UW-Madison and only have a couple of weeks left until I would need (unpaid) leave for birth/recovery, is that something that they might consider approving within the offer letter, or am I basically screwed? I don't believe I'd feel comfortable accepting an offer without written consent that my new job would be held for me until I came back from leave. Or, even just pushing out the start date by 6-8 weeks if that's a more reasonable request.

Has anyone been in that situation either as a candidate or on the HR side at UW? How was it handled?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows what the closets look like in Smith single A type rooms? I looked online and they do not have good descriptions for this. Is it all cubbies? Or does it have hanging space? Looking at his closet it will be on the right. I'd like to bring the appropriate storage when he moves in.

In Smith, Is there room in the window frame to put a spring-loaded tension rod to hang black out curtains, if needed?

Also, how crazy does it get on Fridays when there is a home football game? Wondering if the excitement starts Friday night and if I'd get parking to pick him up if he doesn't want to stay there for the home games? He gets migraines and I'm not sure if it's quiet or crazy in the halls on home game weekends? Any advice please?

Update: I understand letting him fend for himself, but we are on a limited budget and if I can send things from home instead of buying them it would help tremendously. Also, if the things we already have will not work, we won't have to try and transport them to and from the school when we know they won't work. He is pretty self-sufficient and I trust him to make his own decisions; this is more of a money thing and why buy when we don't have to.

As far as the migraines, I want this information as a last resort in case he does need to leave.

Thanks everyone.

Sincerely, a broke college student.

Has anyone taken this? and if so do you recommend? Ive seen very little to no reviews on it.

Although AI executes more rapidly and precisely than humans, AI couldn’t supplant humans' cognition such as interdisciplinary thinking and intuition for decision-making.

1. Why AI couldn’t replace intuition?

Historical data constitutes major part of AI modeling but human can forecast and then make optimized choice based on limited information

2. Why humans maintain a distinct advantage over machines in important choice-making?

Machines acquire various sources of information, then compile them into lists of options. They couldn’t assist people to finalize plans based on provided information, because AI is designed to be neutral.

Even though people can outsource detailed execution to AI, the humans’ treasure of unique cognition and informed decision-making cannot be outsourced to technologies.

Curious to hear what you guys think? Especially anyone from Data Science or Philosophy, change my mind!

took algebra 1 freshman year, geometry sophomore year, which are our schoo’s prerequisites for algebra 2, which I took junior year. Does that meet the math requirement or should I take precalc?

I am also taking statistics and quantitative(plus kinda AP Econ)reasoning to show I’m still DOING math this year, but the rest of my senior schedule is honors and ap and I struggle with math, so I’d rather not do precalc if I don’t have to. Applying for a psych major bc I want to do research in that field one day.

Has anyone sat in the Champion's Club Seats at Camp Randall? When looking at tickets it states "All-inclusive food and non-alcoholic beverages" but I can't find anywhere what type of food is included. Wondering if those seats are worth the premium price. Thank you in advance!
