SouthsideDon48 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Apr 27, 2010 -> 03:14 PM) Where do you go? I am on trimesters and just finished my stats class at GSU lol, it would've been awesome if we were in the same class together. I actually go to DeVry at the Tinley Park campus. I was originally planning on going to Governor's State, but I decided to go to DeVry because I can get a BA in Business Administration with a concentration on Human Resources without having to take Calculus.

whitesoxfan101 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Finals Week is almost a relief for me. As much as it sucks, it is absolutely nowhere near as bad as all of the stuff (papers/homework/presentations/etc) that has to be done in a short period of time leading up to it.

LZPride08 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I'm actually not worried about Finals this year compared to last semester. I have to write a 8 pg research paper for English 10 pager for a Poli Sci Class, 4 pg for another poli sci class.. and if I can squeak by with a C on my Bio final, I'll be done with my gen eds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigklita Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I'm a Biology major at NIU. Almost done, I just have one summer class to take after this semester.

SoxFan1 Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Grand Valley State, Broadcasting major. Broadcast Operations final on Thursday. Got an A in my Sports Marketing and Journalism classes already. Hoping for an A in this broadcast class as well as a required writing class I took. Only other class was a Comm Research course. I'm expecting a C since I got 90's or higher on every exam but never went to class. Attendance was 10% of the grade or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work part time and find it really hard to do both so I can't imagine full time. Yea, I agree. I've been working part-time since I was 16 and going to school part-time as well because I couldn't really afford full-time school and I didn't want to be in a position where I barely have time to do homework. That's why I'm almost 25 and I still have 42 credits left before I get my degree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still got about a year left, I took a lot of night classes and try to get 1 or 2 online classes each semester when I was in Community College (or trimester now) - I also use www.ratemyprofessors.com a lot to make sure I am not taking a teacher that just buries you with busy work for no reason, which works for me most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also the biggest reason I was finally able to pass College Algebra 141 after taking it for the 3rd time. Unfortunately, so far at DeVry the options for teachers/classes seem very limited. So far I only had, like, 1 teacher to pick from for the classes I wanted to take in the day/time I wanted to pick. In fact, some are so limited that there's only one class offered and being taught by only one teacher each semester. If my math is correct, if I have 42 credit hours left, I should have about 11 classes or so left if most of them are 4 credit-hour classes. So hopefully I strike it lucky with decent teachers. :-/ Edited April 28, 2010 by SouthsideDon48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 College of DuPage should be a maximum two year institution, but should never be turned into a four year institution. It is a great investment for a year or two after high school, but that is about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeNukeEm Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) Southern Illinois University - Political Science with a (useless) specialization in International Affairs. I take it because I like it. I know the chances of me finding an actual job that will employ the things I've learned are next to nil, but a Bachelors degree is a Bachelors degree.

The Beast Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 (edited) I am going to raise the roof, flick off the crowd and do a little dance when I graduate. No seriously though, the thought that I have 1 1/2 years left of undergraduate work is liberating. Then if I decide to go to NIU for grad school, then I'll be happy that there is a fresh new start with more opportunities. Speaking of which, for those of you who are graduating, what lies next for you? Where would you go to grad school and what would you go to graduate school for? Are you going to use your degree? Move home? Are you going to move somewhere and take a job while living with random people? As I mentioned, I would likely go to Northern for grad school for a MS in Counseling Education or I'd pursue the dream and go for a MA in Sport Management. The nice thing about Northern is that I could commute from home and it is rather inexpensive to attend there as opposed to what I'm paying now.
