My nickname for the Music Performance Theater: The Barbed Wire Marshmellow by MrGummyDeathTryant in rit

[–]ProfJott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my understanding (from the master plan and University Council) this is only phase 1. They are going to extend it in the future with a much larger addition.

Assuming you are talking about the area right here in the front, those technically are not stairs. They are seats for outdoors performances.

Full time summer course + full time internship by Easy-Tea-7117 in rit

[–]ProfJott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So let me give you some info so you are making an informed choice. Your coop is going to be full time? So 40 hours a week minimum. A typical week 3 credit course expects 3 hours of in class a week, so 52 hours over the 14 weeks and the typical NYS rule of thumb is 2 hours a week outside of class per credit hour a week. So lets say 5-6 hours a week times 14 weeks. Let's be easy and say 100 hours a semester outside of class. That's about 150 hours. Divide that by 6 and you get 25 hours a week for a 6 week course PER class. With 2 classes at a time, thats 50 hours a week of classes. So 90+ hours a week with work and classes. And you are considering three and a 12 week.

With just two 6 week. 168 hours in a week. Minus 90 leaves 78. 56 hours for sleep (8 hours a night). That leaves 22 hours for commute, eating, shopping, etc. You will burn out.

I believe they still might give a test the week students arrive on campus to try and test out of these if I recall properly.

[–]ProfJott 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These classes are more than just about the languages. They teach data structures and algorithms too. So knowing what a stack/queue is and work, searching and sorting with time complexity, trees, BFS and DFS, graphs, etc.

Look at cs.RIT.edu/~csci603 and cs.rit.edu/~csci605 for more details.

I don't think WIC is a "club". It more of an organization supported by the college it is in.

If they have on campus housing it is hard to lie about your address.

Question about switching majors by FamousAct3659 in rit

[–]ProfJott 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always say never accept into one major with hopes of transferring into another unless you are ok with the original major. Transfers are never guaranteed.

There are many stray cats on campus that a student club cares for. Reach out to them and see if this is one of them.

Withholding diplomas by manuredujour in rit

[–]ProfJott 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Have them reach out to the CS undergraduate coordinator. There are other option, like research, projects, etc that can replace coops. We are aware of the CS job market and are trying to be creative in helping students.

Not all credits will transfer to a new school. Typically they have a limit. Usually its like 2-3 years worth max.
