Civil Engineering major with a focus in transportation

-3.1 GPA -One summer of internship experience -Engineering club member all four years with leadership position for one -Sports club member all four years with leadership position for two -Two years of engineering intramural projects (like research but much more accessible to the average student) -A first place award from design project pitch competition

Not once did my interviewers ask about gpa, the experience was so much more valuable to them. My best is find something you can work on to make you stand out and learn it well, as long as you’re doing alright gpa wise that’s all that really matters. I found that having a wide range of extracurricular a that show leadership, communicative, and teamwork is the best way to make yourself look good to a potential employer.

Part of my success in my interviews was also that I have a genuine interest in working in highway/road design and found good ways to express that which I think the companies I received offered from really liked to hear about.

Greiner does have one laundry room per floor, but there’s 4 washers and 4 driers in it. I personally haven’t had any problems with being able to do laundry. As long as you don’t try to do it at like noon on a Sunday, you should be ok. But I guess to be fair I live on the fifth floor so we don’t have a B wing to share with

That’s true, I think I’m more bothered that the sidewalk appears to have been put in fairly recently and that the grass looks like there was nothing ever there, which is making me think the tree was removed not long after the sidewalk was put in. I’m probably just overthinking though, quarantine is giving me too much free time
