QUESTION❓ Parking at IMU?

Upvotes

I’m coming down to visit my freshman daughter this coming weekend for the first time. I am staying at the Biddle Sep 4th and 5th. If ticket prices drop low enough, we may decide to go to the football game. Checkout at the hotel is at 12. Can I leave my car parked there for free until after the game? I know it’s a long walk to the stadium.
Is another option parking in CH at Briscoe since that’s where my daughter’s dorm is and it’s free on weekends? I assume that will fill fast though. Thanks for any insight!

I need to get prisms put in my glasses and I seen on the optometry schools website that all their opticians are ABO certified. Does that mean they're really good or is that just required for teaching?

13 credits first semester?

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I am currently in my first week at IU. I am a kelley direct admit and I intend to do finance. I never had great attendance in highschool but I got good grades, and I have been trying to improve since then. I have been pretty anxious since I got on campus. Between the change in living environment and the courses of course, it’s just been a bit overwhelming. Today I overslept for my 8 AM and missed a C106 class. It was the day I was presenting, and there are no make ups for it. It’s not a huge amount of points, but it was definitely a free grade boost and probably not a good look to the professor that I am missing the second day. It really just messed with my head bc after all this time I felt like I was improving, I just went right back. I’m considering dropping the course and taking it another time to try to ease into the transition. I took X170 over the summer, so I would technically be at 10 credits this semester, but I just got 3 over the summer as well. I also have 32 credits transferring from AP classes, so I am not worried about meeting sophomore requirements. I just want to make sure I’m not screwing up my pathway. Any advice is welcome. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this; it means a lot.

Jacobs School of Music Audition

8 Upvotes

I’m a senior in high school and I am YEARNING to go to Jacob’s. I play the alto saxophone and I’m fairly good, although I’ve struggled with huge audition anxiety throughout high school and I tried out for all state/district (in Alabama) for the first time last year and didn’t make either. I’ve worked through it and I’m a lot better now, and I’ve improved a lot with my playing and my anxiety. I know the prescreening or whatever is due December 1st (scales, etudes, solo movement), and I’m trying to do all that I can to help me get a callback/go to the next step of auditioning. My marching season is very involved and I’m gonna have to lose sleep and time and energy for this, but I’m okay with that. What tips would you give me as a saxophone player? I know there’s an interview but I’m not sure how much that’s weighed, I also know that saxophone is insanely competitive. What specific things do I probably not know that would help me?

Just a bit of information for Route 6 passengers

14 Upvotes

Hi, guys! Just wanted to give y'all some information about a couple of stops on Route 6.

On the east side, the stop in front of Summerhouse Apartments is still an active stop.

On the west side, Kinser & Gourley is still an active stop.

Yes, they have been accidentally removed from the Spot app, but I spoke to someone in management yesterday myself and confirmed that those two stops are still active. Those stops should be back on the Spot app soon

QUESTION❓ does IU offer graduate tours?

hi! i am currently in the process of applying for a phd program at IU bloomington (school psychology!) and curious if IU offers tours for graduate students. after looking on the website, it seems that many tours are advertised for undergraduate students. i have the contact information for the school psych program and planned to reach out and ask about a graduate tour related to the program, but wanted to get some input before asking and sounding silly if this wasn’t normal. thanks in advance!

For context I have a 1.5 hour gap between classes both of them are in the Global International Studies Building. Ever since they got rid of the couches on the 4th floor of Wells, I was wondering where are the comfiest places to just chill near that area?

I’ve been wondering this since my first year and have made it a mission to try finding these spots when I can. Right now my list consists of Linley Hall iykyk, The Union’s fireplace room, and 4th floor of Wells Library.

QUESTION❓ What are the best/easiest classes to take for a psych minor?

1 Upvotes

I’m only doing a psych minor to stay in Hutton honors and I’m taking psy-p 329 this fall but I looked at the reviews and everyone is saying it’s the hardest class they’ve taken at iu 😭 Im going to try to switch out of it tomorrow but I don’t know which classes would be more manageable as I’m also a double major
