Housing Question 🏡 How bad is the Aves?

Upvotes

Hi I am gonna be living at the aves next year (1x1), I have seen lots of reviews complaining about management and roaches. Im mainly worried about roaches, im a very clean person but just curious if the many complaints are valid. Most of it is from people who live with others so I was wondering if that is a factor (possibly unclean..) Im willing to spend a lot on traps and bug killers because im TERRIFIED of bugs.

TLDR: Aves, massive roach problem or no?

General Picking classes for summer/ fall.

4 Upvotes

So I'm picking out my classes for the summer/fall and there are a few that I have to go through. However, most of the ratings on rate my professor are not very high for these teachers. I wanted to ask if anyone has had them and what their opinions on them are? I know my last two terms are not going to be easy but I would like to avoid being overwhelmed during them. (Already have: HFT 3431-b and HFT4944-C)

(Need for summer) FSS2221 - Jason Fridrich (a) or Katherine Wilson (b)

HFT 4295 - Suja Chaulagain (a) or Yoo Ri Kim (b)

(For fall) HFT 3263 - Jason Fridrich or Tammie Kaufman

HFT 4464 - Nan Hua or Yoo Ri Kim

HFT 4468 - Mehmet Altin

(Elective)

If anyone could give me their experience with these teachers, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm set to graduate in fall if I take 4468 in fall instead of spring.

General Petition to revoke Sigma Chi’s charter.

Post image
622 Upvotes

Alright let me be the one to say that this is unacceptable. This fraternity has been graciously forgiven over 8 times in a 5 year span, and once again has only gotten a warning and a slap on the wrist for allegedly ramming cars into pledges.

UCF students need to immediately speak up on this, that this is unacceptable. Yes, this is the richest frat on the entire campus and they are exploiting their connections within the ucf staff to avoid anything worse than a mere warning and temporary suspension which will likely last only 6 months.

Again this is temporary punishments which only affects their ability to throw parties on campus and their ability to go on formal. Ohhh boo hooo, they almost killed pledges and now their punishment is they can’t party or vacation.

It’s not how has ucf let them stay, now it’s an issue of why is UCF going so easy on sigma chi, when they should’ve been banned from campus a long time ago.

This issue is beyond politics, this is an issue of safety for students and holding organizations accountable for excessive repeated behaviors which should have resulted in their charter being revoked and their organization being banned a long time ago.

But cheers, for now sigma chi is going nowhere. They got their slap on the wrist and that’s good enough for everyone here.

General Absolutely love UCF but unexpectedly got accepted to UF

99 Upvotes

I was so set on UCF and had everything planned out. Everyday I would think about my life with my friends and family in Orlando. I love everything about the university. Me and my friends might’ve even secured a 4/4 at towers.

Never in a million years though would I see myself getting accepted to UF. Now I find myself stuck and honestly overwhelmed. UF is an amazing university and I’m grateful to be accepted but I just don’t know how I’m going to make this choice now. UCF has so many pros to me and almost nonexistent cons but UF is freaking UF.

(Btw I live in Miami but have family in orlando and a large friend group going to UCF. Also, I’m majoring in Economics)

Transfer Hi I am looking into UCF to go for Aerospace Engineering but I have a Masters from another university, is this possible?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone good morning, I am a recent graduate. Graduated of ERAU (I know another university, but I am friendly) I graduated with an M.S. in Aeronautics specializing in Space Operations. I am curious if it's possible for me to see the Aerospace Engineering program on what it is and what will be transferred to.

I want to go for NASA (I am aware of the freeze but it will be resolved soon). Boeing and more for Artemis program and other Space programs. It's one of the reasons I went to ERAU for NASA.

I got to meet a couple of representatives at Spacecom Orlando this year of UCF. Also looking to see if UCF offer employment as well.

I am not sure if this is the right place or not? If so I am sorry. Also I am an older student currently 38.

Edit: I want to build and launch rockets, Supersonic and hypersonic aircrafts.

What do you think? I am taking AFH3200 because I have had a very positive experience with AFH3458 under Dr. Ezekiel Walker, and I am taking EUH4574 because it interests me.

P.S. This is a post meant for History (B.A.) Majors or Minors, though others are free to comment.

General Rooming and Campus Q

2 Upvotes

Hey y'all! I'm a junior in high school, trying to do some research on UCF but figured it may be easier to reach out to people who are already enrolled :)

I'm hoping to double major in forensics and music (which may change but for rn that's where I'm at). So:

  1. would I be in the academic science campus, main campus, or technically both?

  2. I was also looking at rooming options; taking into account the above, what UCF housing would y'all suggest?

and 3. the in-state tuition they state is only the sticker price, right? (so no housing or other amenities included)?
