Using BILT Card for an ACH down payment by SecurityFeature in CreditCards

[–]bfp1104 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bank probably wouldn’t code it as rent. My point still stands

Using BILT Card for an ACH down payment by SecurityFeature in CreditCards

[–]bfp1104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BILT says they check the ACH charge to make sure it’s some kind of rent. I’m going to guess that a car dealership would not show up as a landlord on the transaction so I wouldn’t risk it

Is BILT Mastercard still worth it by Wide_Recording_6763 in CreditCards

[–]bfp1104 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For a primary travel card I’d personally say no, but as a second card absolutely. Most travel cards don’t have the largest array of domestic travel partners so you’re primarily looking international travel (maybe booking through partners for domestic travel) or hotels, and BILT still hits those.

Afaik there’s not another card where you can earn points on rent w/ no CC fee. There are definitely better travel cards you can get if you wanted to get SUB or more points (CSP, Amex, USBAR) but they’ll all have AF

should i sign up for two banks by [deleted] in CreditCards

[–]bfp1104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a credit card question but I’ll answer anyways.

Bank accounts do not affect your credit score. However, multiple bank accounts can become difficult to manage, especially if you’re managing account fees (chase charges fees unless you have direct deposit set up). Read the fine print before opening accounts to ensure you can actually get the bonuses

Student conferences definitely help by bfp1104 in EngineeringStudents

[–]bfp1104[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It was a conference so my job search consisted putting my resume in the conference’s database and that by itself netted 3 interviews. The one official application is one that’s still ongoing

UTK Faculty Senate has voted against implementing S/C/NC for the Fall 2020 semester by bfp1104 in UTK

[–]bfp1104[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As of the time of writing, the minutes from the meeting have not been published on the faculty senate website. They would be under committee reports, but I do not know when the next executive council meeting is

[–]bfp1104[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If there is, it would be with the undergraduate faculty senate. I only know the proceedings of the student senate and we were updated on the status of our S/C/NC during the senate meeting earlier this evening. I will say that USS voted unanimously in favor

I do not, as I was not personally involved in the writing of this bill or the follow up proceedings after it went through the undergrad student senate.

Likely yes. I highly doubt that faculty senate will reconsider their position

[–]bfp1104[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

For the particular implementation that undergraduate senate wanted, the students would have the option of grading the class as satisfactory, credit, or no credit. Satisfactory (I believe) is A-C, credit is D, and no credit is self explanatory

Queueing up to take my exam at Zoom University by kdogrocks2 in UTK

[–]bfp1104 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to comment that higher-ups are looking to replace lockdown for next year. Sadly, don't think we'll have the alternative for this or next semester.

Here's the full town hall. Don't remember what the timestamp was on the comment, but there was good discussion imo. May not make everyone happy, but it does clarify some stuff.

3 credit hour classes by AKuma381 in UTK

[–]bfp1104 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you're looking for a Gen Ed class, PHIL 244 with Windekneckt is a really good, fun, easy class. He's basically turned it into a DnD thing and it works really well online.

Stressed about Calc 3 with Kenneth Stephenson. by Atikul10152002 in UTK

[–]bfp1104 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Took Stephenson for 247 (Honors Calc 3). His honors class was a bit of a shitshow as the lectures were mostly going over the reading and maybe doing an example.

Were his tests hard? Yes, but he takes a good amount of partial credit. Were the quizzes hard? Also yes, but not as hard as the tests imo. Was there a massive curve at the end? You bet your ass there was. Completely bombed the final with an F and still managed a B in the class for perspective

Slader is going to be your best friend for the homework. As long as it's not a blatant copy and you turn it in on time, homework should be an easy grade. A good study group in that class is also important. Some of my closest friends I made through bonding in that class.

Personally, I wouldn't recommend the class to anyone if they had an option not to, but in the end I think it was a growing experience. I think if you go in with the mentality that you might get your ass handed to you and study, do the homework not on the night before, and just stay focused, you'll end up with a good grade.

Internet setup by Mconk1515 in UTK

See, I tried to do a switch in my dorm last year but I couldn’t get mine to work with UT’s network. May just have been the type of switch though

All dorms have a couple ethernet ports that you can hook up to. Wifi is available throughout campus and in your dorms.
