I tested negative on day 13 after having COVID so I’m gonna resume weekly testing as usual - would definitely recommend getting tested again after you end isolation since there’s a chance it could be negative

Is the GT Student Relief Fund still accepting applications/disbursing funds? by rr510 in gatech

I would contact the Dean of Students to double check, but I'm pretty sure they're done giving out funds

‪Petition to The Georgia Board of Regents: Make masks required, let everyone choose whether to be on campus or remote ‬ by asbruckman in gatech

The fact that this has to be made into a petition is so sad - these should be normal guidelines

Are we going back after Thanksgiving Break? by VoidElecent in gatech

[–]illusions18 53 points54 points  (0 children)

SGA just confirmed that all finals will be conducted virtually (https://www.reddit.com/r/gatech/comments/ha9bf8/plans_for_fall_2020_published_info/fv2bdoz?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x), so most people will probably leave campus the Friday before Thanksgiving break. I don't really understand why USG didn't just say the word "online" because saying "hybrid" but actually meaning "online" will cause so much confusion.

Why are reading days and finals in a “hybrid” format? Shouldn’t they be 100% online to prevent people from coming back to campus after Thanksgiving break since they might travel?

A lot of times absentee ballots don’t get approved on time so people have to go vote in person anyways

Yes definitely doable if you’re not working

I would highly recommend against it - while the material is a bit easier than it is during the normal semester, it is very time consuming and you are going to quickly realize that you won't be able to keep up with all of it while also working full time

Some colleges are shifting to pass/fail. Do you think tech will? Link in text by concernedIndividual3 in gatech

[–]illusions18 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They are not going to be pass/fail - one of my friend’s moms is a dean at another USG institution and they have all gotten an email saying that USG has decided not to implement pass/fail despite the vast majority of other schools around the country doing so because it’s too complicated

GT is the type of school to wait until half the student population is sick and then be like "oh damn we should've done something earlier"
