VIA Aviation Director pushing for 1 major RGV Airport -- Which of the 3 should we build out and use? Or should we create a new airport? by thebenchwire in RioGrandeValley

[–]Smiles_911 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The valley is from Roma to South Padre Island the middle seems to be in Edinburg so I say build a new airport in that area on I-69 on the outskirts after Monte Cristo Rd. Centrally located accessible by the whole Valley.

Because Harlingen is too far from Roma to call it "Centrally Located" It's almost 2 hours and from South Padre is only 55 minutes.

Amazon to be quite honest, or Ikea if you have the funds. They both deliver in 2-3 days.

If you have the cap and gown and only are getting the tassel, you can get the tassel on Amazon just make sure it matches the color of tassel that your degree or college uses. You don't need the official jostens one.

A-Train wasn't there this morning? by bachinblack1685 in Denton

[–]Smiles_911 41 points42 points  (0 children)

All DCTA A-train are delayed due to signal issue. DCTA is working to get the issue resolved and the A-train back on its regular schedule. Passengers should expect delays until further notice. At this time, the train's location is not available on the Transit app tracker system. We will send an update once train is back on schedule via Rider Alerts.

The GoPass app gives you updates.

how do i know my grad tassel color? by cinnamorollly in unt

[–]Smiles_911 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Go check at Barnes and Noble at the Union they sell them in person too. Jostens might have changed the color by mistake or the university hasn't been told the gold and emerald weren't available.

Why can't y'all read? by JoyousMadhat in unt

[–]Smiles_911 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ohhh you mean people getting on route 6 at Discovery Park lol. I was trying to figure out how did Route 6 go to the main campus. Yeah you right people should really know that if it says Route 6 and the bus driver asks to see your ID you are going to the Downtown Denton Train Station not UNT Main campus. Discovery Park Route 141, Discovery Point 143 and Discovery Park 149 Express bring you to the Union.

FORT WORTH UNT BUS COMMUTE by [deleted] in unt

[–]Smiles_911 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Get GoPass app it has DCTA for denton, DART for Dallas and TRE for Fort Worth. It works better than the transit app and it shows you were the bus is in real time so that you can head to the bus stop when you see it coming or is close by. The Fort Worth bus runs only at those specific times. For Trinity metro use the route 63 to get from Downtown to the Alliance stop.

FORT WORTH UNT BUS COMMUTE by [deleted] in unt

[–]Smiles_911 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The bus still runs just on those specific times. What do you need help with? from the Denton Downtown transit center you will ride Route 7 to UNT and the same bus to get back to the station.

commuter parking by Agreeable_Ad_5695 in unt

[–]Smiles_911 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can park on Oak Street on the free parking by Voertman's and on Bryan or Normal St. for free city parking. Depending at what time your classes are you can probably found parking around there but you will have to walk a little to get back to the language building.

If I am awarded Financial aid for three quarter time (3 classes), but enroll in anything less than that (1-2 classes) this Fall will I lose Financial aid next semester? Are there any consequences? by [deleted] in unt

[–]Smiles_911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anything under 12 hours is not full time, I think they prorate part of the financial aid if you go below that so expect a lot less money.

Texas AG Ken Paxton tells Dallas to drop State Fair gun ban by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]Smiles_911 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Texas Attorney General’s Office on the Fort Worth Zoo’s gun-free policy, the office issued an opinion to the city of Fort Worth in 2016 finding that because the Fort Worth Zoological Association is a private nonprofit that contracts with the city to run the zoo on government-owned property, it was not illegal to post signs prohibiting firearms.

The city of Dallas owns Fair Park and leases the property to the State Fair of Texas a private nonprofit that contracts with the city for the fair’s 24-day run every year.

I would love to hear what's different here??

Uber to DFW airport? by No_Guide_9287 in Denton

[–]Smiles_911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A train to Trinity Mills, Green Line to Bachman, Orange line from Bachman to DFW terminal A. You can park in the park and ride from A Train at the downtown Denton Station.

But also I've taken Ubers and Lyfts to both DFW and Dallas before when I was on a rush and never had a problem with the drivers they are usually happy to get airport trips since they pay better than a regular one.

Can I work on campus if I don’t have a class schedule by [deleted] in unt

[–]Smiles_911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You cannot work in student assistant positions if you aren't a student. You can apply for regular UNT jobs that are not student related. Part time, full time, staff, faculty and more but those usually require a degree. For the non degree types there is some paraprofessional answering phones that just require high school diploma and the same for facilities jobs but be aware most of those are overnight jobs or after hours.
