If there's another CSU Sac / Sac State thread then is it possible to merge? I couldn't find any doing a search soooo... here's one.

How many of us Soompiers are Sac State students? sweatingbullets.gif It seems like there's so many people. So speak up! lol.

I WAS attending at CSUS but now i'm transferring to CSUSB.

can't stand CSUS but beautiful campus though....

aww_youngxp
not very many, i guess. lol. but yeah, i'm going to Sac state (and i'm quite psyched). although, i always wonder how different it would've been if i accepted my offer to UCI. oh well. =P

i heard sac state is a beautiful campus though. =D
diaperBOY
im a sac state student, but i'll be studying abroad this coming semester........ but after that i'll be back to finish my degree for another year

Is anyone else on waitlist for classes? sleep.gif I've been waiting all summer to get into two Health Sci / Human Services classes ... aghhhhh.
Daisyblu89
I go there, it's okie, I just like how green it is and how nice everyone is, except for like the food court people.

But this is my second year and I'm pretty excited to go into the next sem. I'm actually being able to take the the classes I want this year instead of being on the waitlist that seems to never end. Only thing about the campus is that, classes are just always out of function, like the projectors, but they seem to be fixing it up since last year they added security cameras everywhere at the Union. Nothing wrong with it, just could be better, but everything in this world could be better, we just deal.

^
^

But here's my advice for you, if you don't get into the class and continue to be on the waitlist then just sit in for the class, because usually the teachers are nice enough to just let you in as long as there's seats available, so best thing to do sit in on them and you'll most likely get them, my friend was on like 4 classes for a waitlist and she got them all except for one, because people move in and out throughout the first week of school.

Beginning 3rd year here...and yet, I don't know what I'm doing in college.

Professors are really nice though. I'm on the waitlist for a drug+alcohol class, but I figure I'd drop it for the GE req. history class.

You know what's intimidating though? The crowd of viets that are always hanging out around the pool tables. It sucks when you suck at pool too, and they are there watching you, lol.

sleep.gif I know that much, haha! I've never had to sit in before though. For some reason it's kind of infuriating being #1 on waitlist for a while ... but hopefully being a junior will put me at an advantage if I do have to sit in. Muaahahaha. biggrin.gif

Fixing classes are hard. I used to work at classroom services and we used to get a lot of requests for fixing .. but a lot of times the teachers don't know what they're doing either so it doesn't really work out.
jennnayx81
^ i may have to sit in for a class too this semester in order to get 20 units, and i'm not even on the waitlist because the class closed before i was even able to register (darn junior standing). sitting in isn't the greatest because there's a chance that you may have to sit in for 2 weeks (at most until the drop deadlines) and you might not even get it and possibly lose another class.

depending on the course (whether it's GE or a major core class), juniors have pretty good standing (unless you're trying to register, then you're close to the bottom of the list depending on your units), although seniors always get first priority.

1 more week to go!

has anyone gotten their books yet? i went to the bookstore the other day to get my ISBN numbers so i can look up the books online haha. but a few of my classes are still missing the books (even though online it says they have them grrr)

the parking permit color this semester is the same as one of last year's semester, the ugly yellow. but it does have F8 on the permit hmmm...
harrypotter123
are there lots of asians here? do most people dorm?
jennnayx81
^ sac state is a commutter school, so as far as i know, a lot of people commute to school - including me.

there's a good amount of asian people at the school, don't know the exact numbers though

Ahaha, I know what you mean, they are always there. But I don't really care, the thing that makes me feel wierd is the fact that there isn't much girls if at all. It's usually just me or my friend that are girls in there. But oh wells just in there for fun.

20 units is a whole lot ... I got into my 4th class but it's not what I wanted. sad.gif So I have to sit in for my Disease Prevention class, hahaha.

I know that there are teachers that just say ... "lol, class is full" on the first night. sleep.gif Kind of sucks, hahaha.



anyways, bumped CSUS thread. :>

20 units isn't too bad for me. i did 18 last fall and worked about 36 hours/week and managed not to get any C's. ironically it was one of my best semesters.

20 units?!? crazy.gif What kind of classes were you taking?
jennnayx81
haha, actually im only trying to get 18 units now. i have about 57 units to complete before i graduate in 3 semesters, so i'm kinda cramming last minute. i would have taken 20 units if i were to take my chinese class, but i dropped it

Haha, I went to Lassen to turn in a form hoping I'd catch an off hour, but then walked back out when I realized it was packed and would be most likely for the entire day...and upcoming week(s). Oh well.

Should only be for the next week ... maybe two if some teachers like to drag out their wait-list students out till the end, haha. I noticed the hours for admissions increased up until 7PM though --- crazzzzy.
jennnayx81
i went in today to turn in my transcripts from CRC and it only took me like 10 mins in the line. i dropped by lassen early on tuesday as well and there was no line for payment or admissions and records. which reminds me i still have to pay for tuition! sad.gif

Has anyone seen the news article on the chick who wanted to sell her virginity to fund her education?

Ends up she graduated from CSUS with a degree in Women's Studies... ironic.

Any buyers? lol.

I remember freshman year there was an article about some woman who graduated from CSUS and ended up being a porn star. I forgot what the whole point of the article was, but my young female english professor was disgusted. And I think there was another article about some other chick who is a porn star and attends CSUS...seems like this college is a breeding ground for up and cumming porn stars. Pun intended.

Apparently it's up to 250,000$ ... depending, because she's being picky. (And unfair to bidders, LOL)

What porn star? tongue.gif I'm curious now. They need to list these things on the Sac State wiki page, haha! It's understandable ... I don't believe there's anything wrong with porn, but maybe Sac State students tend to be better at it? Hahahaha.

Hm? Where'd you get that? Actually, I was a comp. engineering student, then took a break and went into art/photography, then decided to go into anthro/archaeology, and now I've decided next semester to go into civil engineering. I just realized I went in a circle for 2.5 years -.-

Are you a HS/Com. health major or something?

Ah, you said something about a drug + alcohol class, and that's one of the elective classes that we take as a community health major. biggrin.gif

Just pick something and go with it. tongue.gif You can go back and get another bachelors after dealing with your first one, lol. Don't be a professional student!

i've been through some changes in majors too.

i started wanting to do business and psychology, but psychology got boring. then i wanted to do english to become an editor, but that was too much reading. then i did a year for graphic design, and i was one class away from applying with portfolio, but i knew i wasn't going to continue so i didn't apply. throughout all of that i was still taking business courses, and now i'm graduating (hopefully!!!!) next fall. sadly i'm a year behind (i could have graduated this semester or spring 09) and i'm gonna graduate with my younger brother ph34r.gif but for argument sake, he's only a year younger than me and started his first semester as a second-semester freshman becuase of all the AP credits he got in HS

A year isn't too bad at all...at least you were still taking business throughout all of your changes. I'm probably 2 years or more behind because I went all over the place...but at least I'm almost done with the GE reqs. Still sucks though.
Daisyblu89
^ man just a year behind, I don't knwo how far behind but I'm a Forensic Chem major and it's kicking my butt just looking at the bajillion of chem classes I need to take....*sigh* I want to graduate by 2012-2013, but.... I don't think that is going to happen...
