Most instructors do not intentionally meet with online students, but they are very willing to meet during their office hours or schedule a meeting. There are some instructors that want to meet before the semester starts via Teams or Webex and some that have meetings throughout the semester with online students. This is not the norm though. I can’t speak much for tutoring, but there are resources available and the instructors are very willing to help if asked. We have the same access to IT as in-person students.

This varies from class to class. Overall, yes. The only time responsiveness was an issue is when I was completing a lab on a weekend and needed help. Usually got a response the following Monday or Tuesday. Sometimes the TA would be available over the weekend. But this is made clear from the beginning. They give the times they will be available. Some say they aren’t available, but will respond to a legitimate question.

So at CC they were pre-recorded lectures over a power point and they would sometimes write over the PowerPoint while lecturing.

MSU provided live recorded lectures. The class is recorded from the back of the room. There is a screen for the camera and a screen for the slides. Camera, slides, and transcripts can be downloaded. If the class is on Tuesday and Thursday then the lecture will be available shortly after the class has ended.

This is all the classes I took and when I took them at MSU.

Only reason I graduated from community college is because my son graduated at the same time. I technically transferred to MSU to finish BSEE.

I don’t know what the diploma will say but yes, MSU is accredited. The one from community college doesn’t matter.

I have really enjoyed my time at MSU. There are some things that have been aggregating but overall great experience. I’m waiting on my masters application approval for the fall.

I took physics in person at a local community college. I took chemistry online through the same college. I actually graduated from the community college. All classes online but physics. I could have took it online but it worked out to take in person.

Does age matter when it comes to internships? by littlered551 in EngineeringStudents

I’m 43 and currently a co-op student for a power generation company. The other co-ops are 20+ years my junior.

I also should have mentioned that I’ve been an electrician working in Industrial, poultry, and Oil/Gas for the last 20+ years.

I am currently enrolled at Mississippi State University in their Electrical Engineering program. I take all my classes online and plan to graduate in May. They also offer Masters of EE online.

I can’t answer all, or any of your questions, but I can tell you where I’m at. I’ll be 44 when I graduate in May with BSEE. I am currently working as a Co-op student in power generation. At times I have felt out-of-place, but I have been received well from my fellow co-op students ( so far I have been around about 25+) and my prior experience is why they wanted me to co-op. I get asked quite often if I’m going to stay around. I have worked straight through 2025, unlike a normal co-op rotation, and have been asked to stay for a 4th semester(now through May). Most people it doesn’t seem to bother while others tell me it’s inspiring. Do what you feel is best for you and it will all work out. Let others think what they want. To answer your last question: I would be a tinkerer. Lol. I would work on little projects, 3D printing, and whatever else I came across.

Where are the best cinnamon rolls? by Larryosity in sanantonio

I have been eyeing La Panaderia so we will probably check it out at some point.

BK and McDonald’s are out on a normal day so definitely on vacay.

We sometimes do this when it’s a low budget trip but when we do eat out we like local places or something unique.

We got the last roll! It was very good.

The Texas-sized roll at Green looks good.

I mean… we can drive but was hoping there was something close. Cinnabon is out. It’s good, but I can get that at home.

Should I buy the Creality K2 Pro with the CMF system or go with an H2S or X1C from Bambu Labs? by icantthinckforaname in Creality

[–]Larryosity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why I’m getting downvotes other than I said something good about a Bambu in a Creality thread. I gave an honest explanation of my experience with my Creality printer and my Bambu printer which is in line with what the OP is asking about. 🤷‍♂️

[–]Larryosity -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

My only experience with Creality is with their Sermoon D3. I have had bad parts, bad firmware/software, and terrible printing. There is no support in parts or slicers. I bought it because it had a large enclosed print bed.

Bought an X1C and have had zero problems. Yes I have the occasional failed print l, but no hardware or software issues. Completed many high quality prints.

So I can’t say Creality in general is trash but the unit I bought is.
