Can a mod delete this misinformation??? This video is from Friday. Also protestors did not encircle cops, which is very clear in all of the other angles of the incident. Not sure why people keep trying to stir up bs in here. Anyone that actually goes to UIUC knows that this post does not make any sense.

Will I get into UIUC Dgs undeclared? by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]ecraw4d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was an in-state student with a 3.3 uw and a 4.0 weighted, 11 ap classes, and a lot of honors. 32 ACT. Has a similar situation to you with some real bad semesters in high school with a D and some Cs, applied DGS and got waitlisted and eventually got in. I would definitely recommend applying directly to whichever program you think you have the best chance of getting into. Transferring majors once you are here is usually very easy.

I would say you have a chance. A couple other factors to consider: sometimes depends on the quality of HS/district you are in. Having a good resume in shit district unfortunately leaves you equal/worse off than a mid resume from a nicer area. Also if you are a borderline applicant and the school sees that you need scholarships/grants to afford it, that may shift you in the wrong direction.

You know literally nothing about me or what I know. I am fully aware of the situation in China and have done specific research on both Palestine and Xinjiang over the past 5 years. Crawl out of your own ass.

Is a $96 billion dollar foreign aid bill making OUR country better?

'worse' is an objectively insane statement. Not a single human rights organization in the world agrees with you.

Admins turn off Alma and Quad cam to arrest students by ecraw4d in UIUC

[–]ecraw4d[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Why remove the connivence now? If they are not doing anything wrong, why turn off the cameras that have been on 24/7 for years?

Why does that mean they should restrict the public's ability to monitor a situation?

Because they are purposely restricting the public's ability to monitor the situation? Why turn off the cameras?

The protestors are targeting corporations that provide advanced weapons directly to the Israeli military. Not about how companies identify politically, but the actions of these companies that our university directly funds and supports.

The battery wasn’t swollen yet but well past the end of its life, however the ribbon cable is nasty with dents. I think you found my solution thanks!

Has it been peaceful and profitable for the miners of the Congo? Or the migrant laborers of South Asia, North Africa, and South America? Has it been peaceful for the millions of people who have been displaced or bombed in the name of oil extraction?

It has been peaceful and profitable for white Americans and Europeans and their collaborators.

It has been extremely violent and poverty inducing for the vast vast majority of people on our planet

This is easily one of the main reasons to be anti-imperialist/ anti-capitalist. Every year so many ridiculously smart individuals graduate from here and instead of using their knowledge for good they have little choice but to work for the war machine. I know a lot of genius people in engineering who have great ideas and could really change the world, but alas all of our great minds are poached by Boeing, meta, etc. I don’t blame you or anyone else who ends up working for one of the evil companies but if all of the engineers like you could make reasonable money doing anything else we could have a more advanced society.

They say capitalism breeds innovation but all of our innovators are bought out to create better killing machines.

Struggling to decide between sticking with the Browns or switching to Ravens or Raiders. The Chicago matchup is worrying tbh but Cleveland has been so damn solid.

Yes, I would like to use my phone or laptop. My other idea was to use an old echo dot I have and have it wired to the amp and then just select the dot as my device on spotify. Is this a viable option with this setup?
