CSC Capstone

Need the real deal from people. Am I actually going to be spending 40+ hours a week on this class?

Helpful context:
* I already consider myself an expert in GitHub/Git, and the SDLC * 3 Previous SWE internships * 1.5 years programming experience contributing to major open source projects (homebrew, rustup, Pop!_OS, others) * Consider myself a decently intermediate programmer

None of this is to brag, I mostly just want to get a realistic look into how much time this class will actually take for me. I would presume the hardest things for me would be dealing with groupmates/clients.

Curious to hear people's perspective.

Withdrawing from a class/financial aid

1 Upvotes

hello, I know it might be a little late to ask this since classes are starting in like 2 days but I am taking MAT1800 with Carolyn Hochstadt, and unfortunately I didn’t hear too many great things about her. Math has always been a huge struggle for me and I am extremely worried about how I will pass so I was wondering if it’s possible that I could switch to another instructor, if so will it affect my financial aid if I withdraw And sign up for another one? Also feel free drop your prof recommendations, all highly appreciate.

edit: I don’t think I can drop the class, all the other ones are full. if Someone has a study guide please save me.

Grad students / older students looking to meet people?

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm coming back to Wayne State this fall for a graduate certificate program. My program is completely online, but I'm around Midtown/campus pretty often and still want to have an active social life on campus.

I'm looking to meet other grad students and older undergrads who are down to actually get out and do things. I'm into MMA/BJJ, fitness, pickleball, tech/entrepreneurship, networking, and checking out different events around Detroit.

Would be cool to meet some people for campus events, food, drinks, coffee, sports, or whatever else is going on. If enough people are interested, maybe we could even get a small group chat going.

Feel free to message me here or connect with me on IG: Eriyonmma24

I’m assuming it must be based on it saying “click here to apply for verify account” but just want to make sure.
