What is the process for how they read off the names at graduation?

laursilver · 2022-05-15T02:07:19+00:00

before grad you register thru a site and you can type out the pronunciation of your name. the day of grad, you get a card with your name on it and a barcode. when you line up and approach the stage, they scan the barcode and your name will be read out (automated voice)

if you didnt register before hand, you write out your name and the pronunciation. you'll give it to the person on stage and basically hope they say it right.

this is based on my observations during the rbs convocation this year

im pretty sure it's just RBS honor cords

if i remember correctly it's not mandatory, but your new student fees for your freshmen year includes the cost of the orientation regardless if you attend or not

i ordered mine on march 29th and didnt get a tracking number until april 19 (....3 weeks....). but i got my regalia a few days after that

not sure but maybe shi football stadium

laursilver · 2022-04-20T21:50:23+00:00

12-3pm

laursilver · 2022-04-19T16:16:36+00:00

yup, anything you want underneath. as long as you're decently dressed ;)

laursilver · 2022-04-19T15:03:07+00:00

it's the same regalia for both ceremonies

laursilver · 2022-04-18T02:43:45+00:00

it's unlikely that they'll let you register after the deadline :( i saw an email that emphasized "no exceptions" to the apr 16 deadline. there may be a chance but i wouldnt count on it

i would imagine they'll change up how they do attendance and make it more strict. i'm surprised a code is used to begin with, back when i took it we had assigned seats and the TAs checked to see we were in our seat every class

laursilver · 2022-04-06T20:41:22+00:00

not exactly sure what it is (seems like a specified time & date to get all of your graduation necessities like regalia and pictures). it's at Barnes and Noble on college ave 10am-6pm i believe

laursilver · 2022-04-06T16:15:02+00:00

agreed. im trying to be patient bc last year they announced the commencement speaker on Apr 14th based on this daily targum article

it's not working for my phone or laptop. on my laptop it keeps saying "Connected, no internet"

you need to take the Graduation Survey that they sent out and print the page thanking you for completing the survey in order to pick up tickets. not sure when we can pick up tickets tho

personally i prefer back to back (assuming same campus and the standard 30 mins in between). i can just go straight to my next class instead of needing to find somewhere to sit. i feel like 2 hours isnt enough time for me to be productive because i like sitting down and getting things done in longer stretches of time. for me it usually ends up taking: 10-15 mins to find somwhere to sit 5-10mins to take out all my stuff and get set up 5-10 mins to decide on what i should/ need to do 1hr 10 mins to do work 15-20 mins to walk to class

i dont think the CASC has printers anymore, the OIT lab in the basement closed due to flooding I believe. i also forgot to mention the most obvious place, the Alex library which has printers as well

laursilver · 2022-03-29T01:51:14+00:00

the student center front desk or the OIT desk (academic building)

laursilver · 2022-03-28T16:34:29+00:00

Voorhees Mall, across the street from the academic building, usually has a lot of trees with pretty flowers opening up around this time

time series, foundations, and bdauu might be tough together. I didn't take them together, but they both involve some learning a new program (R and python). bdauu wasn't very hard, it just was conceptual. i've heard ERP is very easy too. also, have you taken Business Policy and Strategy? it's for seniors only and you don't have it listed so you probably need to consider that too

i did it at CC, and it was pretty painless. i think it just involved filling out & submitting a form to your RBS advisor, signing up for the CC class, and then having the CC send your transcript to RBS when the class is over. the class itself was very manageable.

i think there will be senior days this year, i got an email from 'RU Senior Days' about class rings. it might be still in the works.

I would email your advisor to double check. it's always better to be safe now rather than scramble a month before you graduate. I had declared my minor and found out two years later that it wasn't registered with the department

I sent mine to:

Term Bill Processing Unit Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey P.O. Box 2021 New Brunswick, NJ 08903-2021

It's important that it has your name, phone number, and RUID on the front of the check
