The North Carolina Community College System (NCCCS) uses a course called "ART 288" or "Studio" as a catch-all course for all studio areas, providing an upper-level studio, which is sometimes handled as an independent study. Most community colleges implementing the course use it with special designations such as ART 288 C (ceramics), 288 P (painting), […]
Almost all academic institutions now give students e-mail accounts. UNCC uses Exchange, CPCC used GMail, NCSU and UNC use some undisclosed email server and Gaston College uses Novell’s NW Mail. All of the institutions keep email accounts active for multiple semesters, or at least retain email in the boxes, even if the accounts aren’t active. […]
All of my records have found their way to their destinations, according to the Gaston College admissions office. A few hours after the confirmation came from the admissions office, the registrar had transferred my Personal Health/Wellness credit from CPCC. Now I am just waiting to make sure my transient study authorization for the Digital Photography […]
This morning I dove into the bookstore websites for my varying institutions, looking up what my required texts will be this fall (in an attempt to acquire most of them cheaply). I ran across my Art History course, looked up the text on Amazon and was greeted by a $120 book. Its not even a […]
Here is my Fall 2008 class schedule, per the request of a friend. I must apologize for using an image for this, but it would appear that GITI’s output only works in a GITI stylesheet supported UI environment.
Now that my schedule has settled down and everything is on track, I have copied my verbose course schedule for the semester from GITI to here. Fall 2008 Advanced C++ [CSC234] William Martin This course is a continuation of CSC 134 using the C++ programming language with standard programming principles. Emphasis is placed on advanced […]
This evening I ran back over my old assignments from my first attempt at Advanced C++ (CSC234) been rereading the original lab I got stuck on that forced the withdraw (well… that lab and the OTHER 18 credit hours [21 total] I was taking at the time). It was a fairly simple lab, just play […]
I was just looking at some data to see what’s up with the difference in the two reports generated by UNC for my academic record. I first looked up the section title information by searching it for the semester in which I took the course… no match for ART 390 section 991 (the course I […]
Three issues have come up in regards to me moving records around lately. First, earlier in the spring I prepared paperwork for getting my associate level degrees finalized… unfortunately, there was no high school transcript on file for me at Gaston, even though they have a partial transcript for me as well as having me […]
Took long enough, but the grades are finally in. I really hope that when UNC transmits the grades to the other schools that they don’t label the course as "SPEC TOPICS STUDIO", that would so suck, especially since that is only the description, the course title is "Digital Photography".
