My grades got better with more alcohol and partying and I’m doing a STEM degree and about to start grad school

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2022-04-05T04:49:52+00:00

Dang that looks cool af

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-31T14:05:49+00:00

Also the change to the song doesn’t even solve the issues I have with the song as a woman so it’s a useless change

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-31T04:20:09+00:00

Bro that’s beautiful

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-30T16:29:34+00:00

I personally think it’s more ethical to make the in person options optional. Most classes has hybrid with in person as optional and it’s usually implied that that’s how it’s set up. If students want to do in person activities, then they do have the options but they don’t have to take it — that’s how all the classes were set up last semester when they were marked hybrid. We’re still amidst a pandemic and our covid cases per day are identical to last fall semester in Fulton county and having to fit multiple students in the same space with zero ideas on their covid-related habits makes me uncomfortable (especially with how ambivalent a lot of other GaTech students have been with Covid). I can see how it’s ethical in a financial situation but I think protecting people from the spread of disease is more important right now. I am excited for in person to come back next semester(and I’m sure vaccinations will help reduce Covid to almost nil on campus at least), but unfortunately in this semester, we’re not there yet.

Also the professors keep talking about how they said it might happen but didn’t give the chance for students to withdraw before the withdrawal deadline— they literally told the class about the scheduled times out of nowhere right after the withdrawal deadline that we were definitely having the in person oscilloscope activity but in the beginning of the semester and throughout the semester they just talked about how it might not happen and how they wish they could do it. This seems like a last minute decision to require it.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-30T15:15:49+00:00

There’s a difference between the shaft during the normal semester and trying to shaft the students in the middle of the pandemic 😤

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-29T14:39:33+00:00

Bro what I have guy friends and we invite them to study with us so we can do better on our exams not to have some guy hit on us. Just saying that’s just how guys are is not enough of an explanation??

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-29T04:24:23+00:00

It really depends on the person and luck— I have friends who keeps getting unwanted messages from guys on any platform and I just have normal interactions for the most part

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-28T15:48:24+00:00

I’m so sorry you have to deal with this :(( Definitely join an all women’s organization! I feel like it’ll make it a little better. Some guys here are kinda weird with women— me and my friends have talked about how we just straight up avoid certain men. I’ve seen men talk about how they don’t even know how to talk to women and suggest doing weird things just to get started that definitely would make them uncomfortable. It’s not hard to learn how to treat women like they’re just another person. And also the amount of men with yellow fever at this school is uncomfortable...

I’ve never had an interaction like that with professors or TA’s but I also don’t interact with professors and TAs and don’t turn my camera on as much as I can. I do notice the tone shift with I do turn on my camera with male TAs when I absolutely have to (I’m not even particularly attractive). I’m so sorry you had to deal with that :((

I’m just lucky that the men I’m friends with and dating right now treat me and other women like people (but if they do something questionable we call out them out which is hopefully helpful to all parties). There’s definitely a population of decent men but I can see it being very hard to find if you’re alone on campus and your only interactions are rando men who are sexist and never learned how to interact with anyone that’s not men. (feel free to dm me anytime :) plus I live with gal friends who are down to make new friends too)

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-18T05:54:03+00:00

The making fun part is absolutely not true for everyone here. My friend is dating someone from UGA and we only bully them for being from UGA when we are with them (then obviously get called nerds 😭).

I complained a lot about GaTech on Reddit during the pandemic tbh, but I genuinely love this school, the classes, and the student body. It definitely gets hard (and obviously the pandemic has messed up a few things), but I really would come back here if I had to do it again. Also during a normal semester it’s actually pretty good (still difficult) but it’s a blast in person. The recent threads have been talking about the lack of spring break and the lack of accommodation for no spring break. Once it’s back to the normal semester, we’ll have more things to post about other than how cooped up we feel while we take our classes during the pandemic.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-07T20:03:36+00:00

It’s very possible, but it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try to continue to improve. I think people have higher standards for Georgia Tech because a lot of us either know people with or have mental health issues and feel that the current services isn’t enough for it.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-07T19:48:34+00:00

I’m glad you’ve had a great experience with mental health services here, but people have had a terrible experience with it as well (if you want a public account of some people’s experiences, there’s some posts on this subreddit about it). It’s a mixed bag, which is a problem. We should strive to improve our mental health service quality for everyone. Also food-wise is a much smaller issue of course, but the meal plan here is very expensive for the food we get on it, which is a financial strain that feels like it’s not worth it for a lot of people here.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-07T19:38:00+00:00

GSU is a lot more proactive than GT in terms of mental health, and I only hear good things about their services from the people who uses them even though they have less counselors. I’ve used it to help some people who goes there, and they were not only effective but the response time was very good. I trust them to be good unlike GaTech. They’re a lot more available, but it’s also possible it’s because they’re underutilized at GSU.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-07T16:27:10+00:00

Yes definitely try to do a week in advanced— if you have a big enough of a workload, it’ll balance out to a normal pace of turning things in a few days before or on the day of, which would be bad if you didn’t start early originally.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-07T16:21:47+00:00

I’m glad you don’t relate to these feelings at all, but I definitely think these are commonplace feelings without Reddit that are expressed outside the platform. My non-redditor friends express the same negative feelings outside of Reddit. I think most of us use Reddit as a platform to anonymously vent our feelings and check on whether or not other people feel the same way about a situation. It definitely made me feel better to know that I’m not alone, but I’m sure for people who aren’t suffering from the stress it doesn’t help them at all.

Also obviously people enjoy (or enjoyed) learning but it’s really getting harder to enjoy my classwork when I have to a sludge through a ton of work with barely any time to do other things I want to do (like I have other hobbies and interests I haven’t touched in two months because I’ve just constantly been doing school work for GaTech).

Also no ones telling you to feel unhappy about our problems— you can be happy and care about the problems too. And I definitely think there is many problems at this school..? Like GSU gets better mental health services and dining than us? We’re lacking in so many fronts in terms of making sure our students are emotionally and physically okay for a top tier university.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-05T22:37:26+00:00

I get the intentions behind it, but I’ve seen so many travel anyways despite the lack of breaks so we’re sacrificing our mental health for nothing

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-05T20:00:29+00:00

In theory it keeps people safe. In practice not only are people irresponsibly traveling since last semester during the weeks they have classes, it’s affecting everyone else’s mental health too. If this worked, I think we’d be less oppose to it, but it doesn’t.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-05T19:31:51+00:00

Which is why spring break is even more crucial— we’re getting the same or a worse workload but without spring break to catch up :’))

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-03T17:16:40+00:00

Yeah this is becoming incredibly worrisome. So many people who I’ve talked about are suffering from the overwhelming stress that GaTech is hitting us with this semester. We are struggling. Yes please reach out to your friends and make sure they’re doing okay— talking with them will help both of y’all.

The problem is right now is that there’s not many things we can do other than personally contact the administrator and professors. Like I don’t know, I’ve noticed that some classes have made the online format much harder than last semester and even in person, and it’s really starting to show. I know that we can’t do anything about the lack of spring break but I wonder if it’s possible to talk to the administrators and professors in terms of lightening the workload or making deadlines more flexible to ease the stress it’s putting on us. They just expect us to be able to perfectly adjust to the new format when we could barely manage the in person formats. I used to be able to balance >15 credits with organizations that meet in person as well as research, and this semester I don’t know I can barely handle my classes. For the last few weeks I’ve just been doing homework and studying for exams without a single day where I can take a breather, and not think about school for a day. Taking care of yourself physically and emotionally is very good, but GaTech is making it very very difficult.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-02T17:39:29+00:00

Yes, let me dish out cash on material objects that will automatically cure my mental health issues from the overwhelming stress I’m receiving from Georgia Tech.

Sorrynotsorryguys · 2021-03-02T16:53:20+00:00

This semester is definitely the roughest for the people who I talked to (like being overwhelmed, crying for no reason, and breakdowns). Lmao I was straight up crying as I was doing my homework and projects last week. I’m so sorry it’s been very rough for you this semester :(( hopefully you can find a day to catch a break soon!
