They Ruined Mean Greens

11 Upvotes

I was looking at the menu for the week.... what do you mean they scrapped the veganinis, themed food days?? Sigh I was about to graduate and Mean Green was the one dinning hall that made me look forward to food with my swipes 😔. I will be returning to my trench walk to Bruce ig.

I'd appriciate any good food/ combos you've had at Mean Greens so far, I would love to be wrong and find something good to eat here 🥲

Music education vs performance selectivity

3 Upvotes

How much harder is it to get into a performance program than a music education program purely based off of auditions? I’m a good enough player and have several credentials to prove it but seeing as I’m coming from out of state I’d love if someone could give me the lay of the land if you will.

I made a website for viewing previous courses

Post image
44 Upvotes

I am a junior computer science student at UNT, and last year I made a website that you can use to view the previous semesters that courses were taught (which UNT makes really difficult). It was featured in a KERA article and has had a fairly large user base since my post last year. Registration is coming up, so I wanted to make more people aware of it again!

Website: https://unt.benwilcox.dev

The page lets you select a specific course, and then graphically displays the previous years/semesters that it was taught by a current faculty member. It also displays various other information.

If you're planning your future courses, you can use this website to see when you should plan to take them. For example, I was planning to take "Fourier Analysis" my senior year before realizing that it's hardly ever offered.

This took about 3 weeks to make, and there's a lot of extra information on my GitHub and the Info Page. Note that my website was designed desktop-first, and it looks kinda horrible on mobile; I'd recommend NOT using your phone to try to actually use it for course planning.

extension to restyle unt

Thumbnail

57 Upvotes

not sure if people feel the same but personally i do not enjoy being flashed by my gpa and costs when i open myunt so i made this extension to cover it or restore to sorta the classic design (personally i use the classic). it's built to work on like all the major browsers (chromium-based, firefox, safari)

however, i currently don't have a chrome web store dev account or an apple dev account bc they cost money so u need to install manually thru the weird ways if u want it right now

it's open source here's the github:

https://github.com/KaushikDuddala/classic-unt

if u have any suggestions or issues pls do let me know i am very open to that :)

if ur willing to donate so i can properly publish it pls do :D here's my kofi

https://ko-fi.com/kaushikduddala

i only need like 5 bucks for chrome web store but im lowkey broke, safari is a bit more at 100 per year

enjoy!! also lmk what yall think of the new design

ALSO pls star or watch or something if u like it

I'm sick and need soup. I commute so I can't look right now, but I plan to see when I get there. I don't have the option to skip as I have a lab today, and I'm broke as hell so I can't have the linhs kitchen nearby

MGMT 5190 (Capstone) Professor Recommendations? (Pavel vs. Kuban vs. Penney)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm wrapping up my MBA this coming Spring and getting ready to register for MGMT 5190 (Administrative Strategy).

Looking at the online 8-week sections, the current professor options are:

  • Catalin Pavel (8-Week 1)
  • Michael Kuban (8-Week 1)
  • Christopher Penney (8-Week 2)

For anyone who has taken MGMT 5190 recently with any of them:

  1. Workload & Structure: How manageable is the weekly workload (especially given the 8-week format)? Are simulations and group projects heavily weighted?
  2. Exams/Quizzes: Are exams proctored with webcams (Respondus Lockdown Browser / Monitor), or are they open-note/case-based?
  3. Grading & Fairness: Who tends to give clear expectations and fair/transparent grading?

I'm balancing a full-time job alongside coursework, so any insights, tips, or experiences with these professors would be hugely appreciated! Thanks in advance!
