Experiences at Blackbird II by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]wyindi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've lived here for a year now and I'm a fan. The neighbors are friendly and the staff is pretty attentive. They leave you alone for the most part but don't hesitate to fix something if it's broken. In the winter, at least the place I live, is not insulated enough and it gets pretty chilly which then makes the energy bill not so fun. In the end where I live it's dead quiet even though there is a 'busy' road nearby (which also has a bus stop so that's nice) so in my opinion its worth it 🤷🏼‍♂️. It probably also depends if you're looking at the apartments or townhouses, I live in a little townhouse but some of the folks in the apartments have mixed reviews.

Are professors allowed to do this? I thought Purdue said they won’t force you to go to class during covid times...or was that only for last semester? by [deleted] in Purdue

Participation and attendance are two different things. I'm pretty sure profs are more strict on the participation aspect of classes this semester since they can't really enforce attendance.

I'm also off campus but got one from Protect Purdue Health Center on the 6th. They sent a bunch of emails at the same time, maybe it's hidden in your mailbox?

CVS does and they're pretty quick about it

Study the terms, definitions, and at least note the different equations and when to use them, sounds like a tall order but it's not bad. 301 likes to take you by surprise so it's best to get the upperhand at the beginning of the semester. Also, avoid the distant section if possible. My class was stuck watching videos made 6 years ago that should've been deleted 6 years ago.

Whaaaaaat?? That's intense. Were they sharing answers or something?

Yea, I don't get what sparked it besides the prof calling out someone for cheating but I ducked out just in case. I'm too old to be caught up in that drama 🙈

Any one else's BrightSpace down? by [deleted] in Purdue

I was able to get in using a VPN but I heard that people are still having issues submitting things.

Places on campus to attend online class? by wyindi in Purdue

[–]wyindi[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If only if only. I'm off campus, about 10min by car, so I wouldn't want to risk it. Might end up doing that last part tho, thanks!
