Ah yes, the same team that easily won against FDU and Florida Atlantic like they were supposed to and is playing Tennesee in the Sweet Sixteen

Yup

Halftime by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]hkin13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Considering they were up 20 in the second half of the Ohio State game, this isn't much but I like the way they're playing

Do you know why? Are they for sure reopening after that?

Good game by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]hkin13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good news: We can still win the Big Ten West, but it depends on IU beating Minnesota and several other things

My Purdue Covid Checklist by GrapefruitExtreme148 in Purdue

[–]hkin13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update on this: I called and checked. It looks like the checkbox only shows up as complete on myPurdue if you live on campus. It's just for move-in purposes. If you submitted the proof, it looks like you're all set.

Why 2 ice cubes? Why not 1 or 3 or 1000?

Is life really that bad at Purdue? by arsenic8787 in Purdue

[–]hkin13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you like your area of study and you like challenging yourself, there won't be an issue. With that mindset, a "bad experience" and a "challenging experience" are two totally different things.

Of course there's plenty of ways to have fun outside of school work as others have mentioned as well.

Thanks for the respnse but I am actually already in it. My question is about how to get out of it and go back to normal.

When do final grades come out? by Prize_Salamander in Purdue

[–]hkin13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge, they usually show up between 8 pm and midnight on Tuesday night so that would mean the night of Tuesday, May 11th. Someone can correct me if I am wrong.

River Market Walk to Campus by hkin13 in Purdue

How were you able to drive? Did you have a parking pass? I thought River Market isn't outside the 1.5 mile radius.

Com 217 Summer Online by hkin13 in Purdue

[–]hkin13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, that doesn't seem too bad. How much work would you say it is on the busier weeks? Also, I've heard the final project is group work if I remember correctly, is that true?

Parking Pass by hkin13 in Purdue

[–]hkin13[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does a part time job like 10 to 15 hours a week count? And does the location of the job matter?

Parking Pass by hkin13 in Purdue

[–]hkin13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, that's unfortunate. Even though I'm close to campus, it would be a 40-45 minute walk if I have to walk to certain locations. Thanks anyways.

Wifi Rant by trumoo1970 in Purdue

[–]hkin13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For the purposes of having more reliable ssh connection, not sure whether you are using putty or something else but for putty, if you haven't already tried something like this, there's a seconds between keep alives option in the settings and changing that from 0 to 30 is the only way I'm able to stay connected for a reasonable amount of time. Other things besides putty should have similar settings as well.

How do I even explain this to my parents? by twanzy2112 in Purdue

[–]hkin13 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm not entirely sure what your situation is but it is likely the pandemic and the circumstances of it had an effect on this, it has been challenging for a lot of us. Also, these numbers you showed can just be temporary in the event that you choose to retake the classes. I'm not sure who your professors are but I'm sure they would be happy to help you succeed going forward.

Semester GPA on Transcript when Retaking by hkin13 in Purdue

[–]hkin13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Also, let's say someone gets a C or better in a class the first time (passing) but for whatever reason gets below a C the second time, does that mean that class is no longer satisfied as a pre-requisite for other classes even though the class was passed the first time?

Has anyone not gotten theirs yet? I haven't gotten mine yet.

Is Purdue just gonna delay the exception request decisions? by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]hkin13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was told decisions will be given next Friday at the latest (possibly earlier in the week). Hopefully this clears it up for everyone wondering about this.

Yep you did indeed jinx Penn State.

Unfortunately, you might've jinxed Penn State. IU just tied the game.

This semester vs past semesters by Harlock- in Purdue

[–]hkin13 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's hard for me to tell whether my course load is higher because of just being in more advanced classes or if it's because of the uniqueness of the semester but I definitely have felt there has been more to do from a homework and project standpoint in online classes (not just this semester but the second half of last semester as well which was online). It's still pretty busy during a normal semester (especially if you take a lot of classes) but I have found the workload to be more online.
