Fayetteville Gets A Running Start

There is still nearly a month to go before my courses at Fayetteville State University begin, but yet the instructors for all of my classes have already gotten out an email. The pre-registration window officially closed on December 5th. Just as soon as it was closed, instructors began sending emails to students with textbook information […]

Change to Spring 2009 Schedule

I have made some changes to my Spring 2009 schedule. I have now officially added ART 288 DH (Digital Photography Studio) on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3PM until 5:45PM. I have dropped CHM 131 & CHM 131A (Introduction to Chemistry w/lab). I do not need the stress of such a heavy course in an already […]

I keep being told that I have greater than 50 credit hours towards my registration date at Gaston College, but every time I try to enter the system, I am always given a different date than quoted for registration. Its a weird little bug in the way that Gaston counts their hours. What I keep […]

Academia by Prompt

I am starting to slowly figure out how things work at Fayetteville State University…nothing happens automatically… it must be prompted. Need to declare a major? Send your form (guaranteed 3-5 days processing), then nag the department chair to respond to the declaration form, wait a few days, then email the registrar and remind them to […]

Picking a Science

I find myself very conflicted with my Spring 2009 academic schedule. I want to take a science, but I can’t decide if I want to take Nutrition (BIO 155), Anatomy and Physiology (BIO 168), or Intro to Chemistry (CHM 131).  Nutrition and A&P are both offered as online courses, and the chemistry course is in-person […]

Now I’m Pissed With Advising
