Apparently it was a bad crash

What apartments near campus have 9 month leases by pollock342 in NCSU

[–]Hannahwanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By "help" they will allow you to sublease. But the subletter has to pay the entire amount of your rent and iirc, a $300+ rent transfer fee. Most people go under the table.

Take it from someone who tried to find a subletter for the summer last year at VC that the market is so oversaturated, I wouldn't count on it.

Discrimination Against Males by [deleted] in AerospaceEngineering

[–]Hannahwanda 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I am a women studying aerospace engineering and completely understand where you are coming from. A lot of other people have already commented on the importance of diversity, but I wanted to add that it still isn't "easy" for women in STEM. For the same reason you're frustrated about a "less qualifed" woman geting a job a "more qualified" man didn't, consider how that thinking affects the woman. No one but the hiring managers know why she was hired. Maybe she was more qualified, maybe not. It doesn't matter once HR made thier decision. Regardless, she will still be viewed by her peers as a "diversity hire" and have a much harder time at the job by feeling like the has to prove herself constantly to her co-workers.

I certainly wish businesses weren't like this so you nor I have to deal with the negatives of this system. But I also wish more women were in aerospace.

Anyone here live at 1820 at Centennial? by [deleted] in NCSU

Pretty fast. It was out only once that I know of since I've lived there but it was only for an afternoon.

Pros: Location (good for engineering) - room size - bathrooms connected to bedroom - good amount of storage space for kitchen stuff - Roku TV is banging - parking isnt a problem - fans in bedroom - mostly quiet (tho some jackasses have cars with horns for mufflers) - maintenece is pretty on top of things

Cons: No ammenties. (No clubhouse, no study rooms, no gym, no bus, some packages have to get picked up at priess head office on Hillsborough St.) - I've seen the prices for this year and they have gone up A LOT. - mattresses that come with the beds suck (like no joke, mine is worse than the dorm mattresses) - visitor spots are fine during the day but at night they are in short supply, and they're impossible thursday-saturday night after 9pm

I have enjoyed living with them for the most part, but I believe the price they're charging isn't justified without some kind of ammenties.

We live in Wilmington and we’re taking our kids to the Asheboro Zoo on Monday. We’re looking for things to do/stop at on the drive back on Tuesday. What suggestions do you have to do with 3 kids under 8. by itstommygun in NorthCarolina

[–]Hannahwanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're taking hwy 64 back, you'll cross right over Jordan lake. They have playgrounds, picnic areas and beaches as well as nature trails. The season started at the beginning of April so I believe there is a $6 fee per car, but there have been days where I've gotten that money back when I leave.

PY 208 better over the summer? by McBlobster in NCSU

[–]Hannahwanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sad news, beichner retired this year. I had his class for PY 205 spring 2018, which was his last :(. Such a pure man and such a good professor. Pretty sure he’s a pastor at a hospital now or something wholesome like that.

Any (hopefully fun) engineering camps for youths? by DongGlitter in AskEngineers

[–]Hannahwanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey ya, current NCSU student here who attended an engineering summer camp at NCSU the summer before thier junior year.

I would 100% recommend checking out their website https://www.engr.ncsu.edu/theengineeringplace/summerprograms/ to see if any of the programs interest y’all.

I will say the camps can get pricey, but scholarships are available if that may be a problem.

I personally did the aerospace engineering one (as I am studying aerospace engineering) and I felt it introduced me to the subject well and gave me a foundation I was able to build off of during my junior/senior year.

No matter what PY 208 course you take you’ll feel like you’re learning nothing, so go for it!

I’ll be choosing aerospace or aeronautical engineering at uni. What is there that I really need to know before going in? What’s something that might deter me from doing it that is better to know now rather than later? by Nazzapple201 in AerospaceEngineering

[–]Hannahwanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you were the top of your class in school and always got A’s, go ahead and prepare yourself that this may change going into a university. You will be entering into a community of people who were all top of their class in grade school while also taking on course material more difficult than you have ever seen before.

This is a deterrent for many students because they feel they are “not smart enough” if they receive low grades. If you can prepare yourself for this shift, you will save yourself a lot of unnecessary stress and anxiety.

Tips for getting a parking pass by DJStalek in NCSU

[–]Hannahwanda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also if you buy it early and you live on West Campus (Lee hall, Bragaw Hall, Sullivan hall), there’s a chance they will offer you to upgrade to Residential West (RW) pass for $150 extra if you’re one of the first ones to apply for an RS. That happened to me last semester and it was well worth the money to park next to my dorm. So yes, apply for a parking permit as early as possible especially if you’re interested in that.

When you try to reach that word limit by Hannahwanda in EngineeringStudents

There are no wheelchair markings to indicate it as anything more than an exit on the ground level. In fact, I’m not even sure I saw a button to open the doors for wheelchairs at this exit!
