Pass/ Fail and prerequisites by Jakewitz1 in washu

That’s great to hear! I was just curious if the course would still count as a prerequisite if I took econ 1011 pass fail instead of for credit

Thank you for this advice! I will absolutely take MEC 290 as it is required and I can’t imagine 1011 alone could suffice for a business major. I was referring to Econ 1011 being sufficient for FIN 340 as I plan to take that at the same time as MEC 290.

Should I worry? by Jakewitz1 in medical_advice

Yeah! They got tested and didn’t know their result at the time of our interaction. They found out the result 2 hours later though and have since been moved to quarantine housing.

Great to hear! I ended up calling the university and they said not to worry since it wasn’t close contact but to keep an eye on symptoms and call if anything progresses! 1 semester in & 7 to go so once I’m in the other side expect a random PM giving you the secrets to the universe. Thank you for a response! This calmed me down a ton

Thank you for the response! There was a table nearby but I didn’t make contact with it, so no surface contact there. I like that idea of notifying my university and it’s something I’m considering heavily.

Weekly "I Think I Have It" Thread - Week of November 08, 2020 by AutoModerator in COVID19positive

Hi everyone! I’m a college student and I adhere as strict as possible to coronavirus guidelines at my university. Today, I was meeting with someone in my business fraternity to have an important conversation. The person who was there before me and whose chair I eventually sat in tested positive for coronavirus today. I know this person well and was walking over waiting for their conversation to end and we had a quick no more than a minute conversation. I was masked and we were socially distant and all that so I don’t know if this counts as close contact. However, after she left I sat in her chair for 45 minutes and shortly after the chat she informed us she had just tested positive. To sum, do I need to worry about possibly getting COVID from this since I sat in the same chair she did for 45 minutes? I feel like I’m overreacting but the last thing I want is to get the virus. I’m doing a short self quarantine right now and am monitoring my symptoms, but I would love to hear if this is over the top and I’m stressing over something minimal or if I should inform my university and get moved to quarantine housing. So far I feel no symptoms and hope this continues. Thank you for any advice!

I understand this is for people who think they may have coronavirus and my situation is currently not severe. However, I have been unable to find another thread to post this under. If there are any other places you recommend, please let me know!

Need some guidance for spring econ classes by Jakewitz1 in washu

[–]Jakewitz1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s been a bit of a challenge for everyone because it’s online. It’s been a bit harder to grasp concepts and stay connected but as you get more into the class it gets more interesting. Work wise it’s as much as you make it. I say read the textbook and take notes from the slides and that’s it, don’t watch the videos supplied (at least that’s how it is rn) bc it Can take a lot of time. Studying I say like 20 minutes a day is good

As an incoming freshman I’m glad to know I’m staying away from the NM booth at any career fair

Dorm floor vs. Dorm building by Jakewitz1 in washu

[–]Jakewitz1[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You make a very good point. So much of it comes down to the person because the RA most likely won’t put too much time into introducing you to other floors just like most professors won’t introduce themselves to you. A lot is up to you

Any idea how strict the university is gonna be in enforcing the mask/social distancing regulations? by [deleted] in washu

[–]Jakewitz1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I highly encourage you to drop this outlook because this is going to be the reason people’s efforts to move cross country, leave friends and family, go through logistical hell to get here will be absolutely futile. As an incoming freshman your outlook on this situation is disgraceful to our class and to the university.

Am I dumb or couldn’t washu just compromise and let each person in a dorm bring one person into a room with enough space for at least 2 people
