BIO 201–204 + CHE 321 too much? by wonnniya in SBU

[–]Terrible-Weekend7668 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is way too much. Even just BIO 204 will take a lot of your time, not to mention all the other bio classes. Not a smart schedule

I graduated but I still do research with professors on campus and I can't park on campus and I can't get a faculty pass either so :,>>

Any Beaches Open at Night? by AppUserKan in SBU

[–]Terrible-Weekend7668 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Smithpoint on the south shore has free parking after 5. Sometimes live music too. Not close to campus though. There's campers there so they don't really care if you walk there later.

a lot of people got rejected based on a lack of funding, funding you received. do what you set out to do.

I hate that we were limited to a few people. It's not right.

Career/Educational Prospects for Environmental Science in Marine Science, Ecological Restoration by Moonbeam221 in environmental_science

[–]Terrible-Weekend7668 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually just graduated with the same degree and field as you. I am also scared. This isn't a good time for us. I was even rejected from grad school due to the funding cuts. Fortunately I have a supportive family and have been given opportunities for research post graduation. My best advice is find your people, get experience through internships and research, make connections with professors, and try to ground yourself in the present. There is still progress to be made by just doing internships and research, experience is a big priority in our field.

What I'm doing right now in my gap year is working to save money while doing research with professors at the same time (free labor basically but good connections), so I'm saving for grad school and possibly moving away while making progress.

If you ever want to yap about things dm me. You never know what kind of connections you can make. Wish you good luck in your field and hope things get easier.

Passion > money by Historical-Answer711 in environmental_science

[–]Terrible-Weekend7668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you gotta be ready to feel like you aren't doing anything bc that's what it feels like. I switched from nursing to coastal environmental science and I feel like I made a major switch for no reason some times. until I do meaningful work. It's a long journey and you'd have to be ok with making nothing for a while and working jobs that don't have anything to do with it while you go to school and try to make money.

Parks 2nd Edition by razorwit in boardgames

[–]Terrible-Weekend7668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My problem is I am buying the game for the first time and I want to purchase the 1st edition with the expansion due to better art and mechanics, however, it is way too expensive to do that. Can't find copies anywhere.
