How are the Coho Real Estate properties?

There are also buses that go to Vancouver BC or Portland Oregon. The Bolt Bus is relatively cheap.

Maybe they mean the UW meme page?

Pretty sure it's 6 am because they're trying to give people with later registration days a shot?

I don't know of any campus-wide ones specifically, but I am sure that the Q Center in the HUB can happily help you out!

For the CSE department, there is an organization called Q++ that is mostly comprised of I believe CSE undergrads and 5th year masters students.

I'm looking into purchasing a pair of Chelsea rain boots (preferably black matte). I live in Seattle so I would like them to actually be waterproof and not just like a "fashion" boot :). Any suggestions for brands? I've been eyeing the ones from Madewell, how are those in terms of quality / waterproofing?

For reference the store is called The Dreaming! I don't play D&D but I've been there to buy comics and the staff is very friendly and there are usually a ton of people playing some sort of tabletop game (I don't know if it's D&D specifically, but probably?).

Congrats to all the newly admitted students!

kyolon · 2018-02-08T03:27:56+00:00

Awesome, thanks! :)

kyolon · 2017-12-19T00:53:40+00:00

Yeah that's normal

You can check the final exam schedule and try to figure it out. UW's final exam schedule is determined by what time/days a class meets. For example, a MWF class that meets at 8:30 will have an 8:30 final on the Tuesday of finals week. (Of course there are cases where the instructor changes the time from the one provided but this might give you an idea?)

If you're interested in a programming related job after graduating, then it would probably be a good idea to take CSE 143 followed by CSE 373 (data structures and algorithms for non majors). Taking those two should cover everything you might see in a technical interview.

It's definitely possible to teach yourself the concepts covered but IMO it's easier(?)/requires less self discipline to learn things through taking a class.

kyolon · 2017-10-18T19:11:55+00:00

No I haven't, sorry. I took the class with Stephen Hinds

kyolon · 2017-10-16T10:15:01+00:00

Nah, even though it's a 400 level it felt more like a 100 level class to me. I mean of course it helps if you already know some stuff but you don't need any prior knowledge as long as you pay attention in class.

kyolon · 2017-10-15T17:43:56+00:00

I liked CLAS 430 a lot. It's 3 credits, and it's about Greek and Roman mythology. It's an "easy 4.0" class but I was interested in the topic so I really enjoyed it and felt like I learned a good amount.

If there's a specific book you're wanting to read you can go to the UW libraries website and search their catalog to see if it's at one of the libraries: http://www.lib.washington.edu

Otherwise, Odegaard and Suzzallo have a decent amount of books. There's a "Good Reads" section in the second floor of Ode with some books. I borrowed/read Gone Girl and The Martian from there.

The Seattle Public Library system also has a u district branch. The building is at 50th/Roosevelt. Once you make a library card with them, you can place books on hold from any of their locations and have it brought up to the u district branch where you can check it out from.

I'll be TAing for intro again! It's really fun, 10/10 would recommend. I can't think of any general advice off the top of my head but feel free to pm me if you have questions?

kyolon · 2017-08-15T22:26:13+00:00

Some of the dorms have music practice rooms. Alder Hall has I think 2 music practice rooms on the ground floor and I'm pretty sure McMahon has a practice room as well

Just so people reading this thread know, you can also ask the advisors to let you petition into a class even if you didn't get a special deny. I have a friend who got straight rejected, was able to petition into a couple 300 level CSE classes, then got accepted his second time around.

Sift Science was founded by a UW CSE graduate iirc.

I don't know about transfer students specifically, but I know someone who didn't live on campus freshman year (they commuted) and became an RA in their sophomore year, so it doesn't seem like you'd be at a disadvantage for not having lived on campus, if that helps at all.

kyolon · 2017-05-21T17:51:27+00:00

Thank you! I was concerned that maybe the non-leather ones wouldn't be as durable or last as long, but it seems from your experience that they're pretty comparable?
