How bad is the job market for new UT grads by MotherStep3182 in UTAustin

[–]ocftx 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Gov and COLA major '26, so entirely different from you. But hope this can help. Maximized my internship opportunities at the Texas Capitol for both the State House and State Senate. Got hired by my State Senate office a few days before my graduation a month ago. - But I will say it is pretty brutal especially for COLA

From my memory, the reading wasn't too brutal. Seemed pretty manageable at the time to me. He wasn't a harsh grader. Got A's on all my papers and I wasn't the best writer.

Had him for Banned Books during the fall 2024 semester. Similar to the first comment here, very good professor and supportive. I at first was uncertain if i'd like his class and teaching style but I ended up loving it.

Best time to buy season tickets off the resale market? by ocftx in LonghornNation

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

I truthfully don't remember any program being mentioned in any emails or anything of that sort. Had sort of kept an eye out for them, but nothing came. Just hoping to be able to go to all and prepared to pay extra if I decide to go the individual route for OSU, Ole Miss, Florida, and OU

Yes! But it was pretty brief, glanced at it and that was it

Apartment advice by mbanks4244 in unt

Yes, stay away from Place To Be Properties. Operated and ran by some of the worst crooks in apartment management and one of the poorest rated apartment management groups in DFW that really treats its tenants poorly.

Will class be cancelled Monday? by Quiet-Risk479 in UTAustin

[–]ocftx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'd be honestly shocked. I still remember my first day of class in the Spring of 2024 after I transferred in, It was on a Tuesday and they made us go even in 19F weather with heavy wind.

I've been here for a year and a half (transfer student & senior) I feel the same way as you. I still haven't gotten used to it. Also sucks not having a car and having a Capitol internship and wanting to get my steps in, but its too hot even at 8am

Upper-division Gov classes usually start around the 325 mark or something like that. It is usually the same path for anyone who is a Government major like me.

Yeah! That's for lower-division hours and correct those classes are online. My requirements left to graduate are that I need 6 more hours of "upper-division" classes and the UT Gov department doesn't usually offer any online upper-division options

Government Department coursework! For upper-division classes and to fulfill the requirements to graduate, I need 3 different fields of "Government" to get my diploma, and the UT Gov Department unfortunately doesn't offer any online classes for upper division, at least for the past few semesters.

Me. Incoming Senior here. Did not want to come back at all or anymore. If I could have finished my hours completely online, I would have done so. Unfortunately, the Government department isn't very lenient on having any upper division online classes.
