if i somehow make it im going to put myself on the world guiness records.

You might be asking why i didnt study?

Well i have been extremely emotionally effected because this person talked behind my back to my gf and falsely accused me of doing something i didnt do with the purpose of making her scared of me and trying to break us up. She eventually made my gf scared of me and made her leave me around october. This person did this with jealous intentions and she made my gf leave me who meant the entire world to me. and i havent been able to concentrate ever since this happened.

Academic Academic Integrity.

Post image
134 Upvotes

I decided to build a case on this HYPOTHETICALLY being the student who cheated. Here’s me response to the email: (this was posted on Yik yak as a source of the canvas announcement, I’m just taking this on to see what others thoughts are on this)

Subject: Concern Regarding Academic Misconduct Announcement

Dear [Professor’s Name],

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to respectfully address the announcement made on [date] regarding alleged academic misconduct during the final exam.

As a committed student, I want to ensure that any concerns are handled transparently and in accordance with the University of North Carolina at Charlotte’s Code of Student Academic Integrity (Policy 407). I acknowledge the importance of maintaining academic integrity and upholding university standards. However, I am concerned about the procedural and ethical implications of the announcement.

Based on Policy 407, students accused of academic misconduct are entitled to: 1. A presumption of innocence until proven responsible by a preponderance of the evidence. 2. A formal process that adheres to standards of due process, including notification of specific allegations and access to evidence. 3. Privacy and confidentiality in such matters, to prevent undue harm to their reputation or learning environment.

The Canvas announcement has inadvertently cast suspicion on all students without specific evidence. Furthermore, the ultimatum presented—to confess or risk harsher consequences—may compel students to act out of fear, rather than due process, potentially compromising the principles of fairness and justice.

I respectfully request clarification on the following: 1. Evidence Basis: What specific evidence supports the claim of academic misconduct? 2. Procedural Steps: Will this matter be referred to the appropriate university body, such as the Academic Integrity Board, for formal adjudication? 3. Student Rights: How does the current approach align with university policies protecting students’ rights to due process and fair treatment?

I trust that we can work together to address these concerns in a manner that upholds both academic integrity and the values of fairness and respect. If necessary, I am more than willing to engage in a formal discussion or resolution process to ensure that this matter is handled appropriately.

Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to your response.

Sincerely, Blank

Academic Seeking Justice for Unfair Treatment at the UNC Pool

0 Upvotes

To the Students of UNC Charlotte:

I am reaching out to share a recent experience at the UNC Charlotte pool that highlights ongoing issues of inequality and discrimination on our campus. I believe this is important for us as a student body to address together.

Backstory: Earlier this week, I went to the UNC Charlotte pool, expecting a safe and inclusive environment. Given that North Carolina law permits women to go topless, and after confirming with our state representative that this is true for our district, I felt confident in exercising my right. I decided to take off my shirt, just like many men were doing.

Almost immediately, I noticed the staff giving me looks and whispering among themselves. Within about five minutes, a staff member approached and told me I wasn’t allowed to be without a shirt. I explained that I was within my legal rights and that no school rule prohibited it. She called her manager and eventually the campus police.

All I was doing was swimming laps and minding my own business. Despite this, I was told to leave due to "school policy," which wasn’t actually a written rule but seemed based on personal bias. One officer even acknowledged that while I wasn’t harming anyone, "the school has its rules."

This double standard is not just unfair; it also sexualizes women’s bodies. This isn’t the first time something like this has happened at UNC Charlotte. There was a similar incident years ago when a Black woman was kicked out of the pool, showing a troubling pattern of discrimination.

Impact: The event at the pool left a strong impression on me that is hard to shake off. The lapse of judgment violated what the University of North Carolina at Charlotte stands for. Apparently, the UNC at Charlotte’s pool staff do not follow the presumed creed that UNC Charlotte preaches. UNC Charlotte claims that men and women are treated equally, but this incident shows otherwise. Kicking me out of a publicly funded pool not only violates the freedom of expression law in North Carolina but also shows a lack of integrity on the pool staff’s part. North Carolina law does not consider a woman’s chest public nudity, and it is legal for women to go topless.

Call to Action: I am urging my fellow students to support me in addressing this issue. We need to come together to demand that UNC Charlotte reviews and clarifies its "proper swimming attire" policy to ensure it is clear and non-discriminatory. It’s essential to uphold the principles of equality that UNC claims to support.

Advice Needed: I am seeking advice on legal actions I can take, contacts I can reach out to, or steps I can take to seek justice for this situation. If you have any information or resources that could help, I would really appreciate it.

Thank you.

Academic I’m so mad about my grade

67 Upvotes

Guys I’m taking a journalism class and my professor is strict about not missing any class. So much so that they put in the syllabus that if we miss more than one class for the entire semester we will get 15 points deducted from our final grade.

Fast forward to today, I had a 94% in this class. All my assignments were turned in and done meeting academic expectations. However, because I missed class unexcused my grade went from a 94% to an 87% and there’s nothing I can do about it.

THE GAG IS…this professor literally has a recorded attendance grade. The 15 point deduction is an ADDITIONAL punishment. I’m so upset because my highest graded paper is what got 15 points deducted.

I’m so upset. Like how is this fair?? The hours I spent on those papers mean nothing bc I missed class????

As my time at uncc comes to a close next semester, I have to say one thing.

Every single one of you who remembers these classes by number are absolute freaks. FREAKS I tell you.

Every time I start talking about classes, y'all over here start spouting off random numbers like these classes don't have NAMES, MY GOD.

Just kidding, y'all are alright, hope y'all had a good thanksgiving break.

Academic Is it normal for professors to talk about their religion during class?

63 Upvotes

Kind of what the title says. I have a gen ed math professor who is nice enough, no reviews on rmp so I think she's new. FDOC while going over the syllabus she mentions that she wants to treat everyone with respect to "better represent God" which I didn't really think much of. But now today's class she pulls up a projector slide with something inspirational on it, and takes a solid 5-7 minutes to explain to us that if we're anxious or depressed, to "find Jesus Christ" and to "just try it!" She talked about Christianity and how much it would help us.

Is this as weird as I think it is? Or am I being overdramatic. I think it's completely fine that she's a Christian, I have nothing against it. Everyone should be able to practice whatever religion they'd like. But doing it in a gen ed lecture hall with 50+ students just feels kind of uncomfortable to me, and atp I'm worried this might become a reoccurring thing. Does this happen to anyone else?

Academic Registration is TERRIBLEEE

Post image
56 Upvotes

My registration opened at 9am and all of my classes were full🙀🙀 I was able to waitlist for the COMM 3160, ECON 3125, FINN 3120, and MKTG 3110 professors I wanted. I’m so worried though😭

I’m in my third year and this is the first time I’ve had more than 1 waitlist class, do you guys think I’ll get a seat in each of them? Most sections are full anyway for whichever professor, so I’m kinda screwed for some of these classes if it doesn’t work out.

Also,,, the FINN 3120 course is also online and there’s still a vacant waitlist and 2 seats remain. Is FINN 3120 decent enough to take online or should I stay on the waitlist for the in-person class with the same professor?

Thanks😸 I’m just so confused cuz I made a plan and as soon as my registration opened everything was full already..

Academic Electrical engineering salary

Post image
32 Upvotes

I will be a high school graduated student and go to college. I am confident that I will be admitted to NC state or UNCC, but not sure about if I could be admitted into NC state engineering program, which would be chemistry possibly. UNCC engineering has admitted me into electrical engineering, so I have check how much salary electrical engineer can get, which worried me. This picture was captured on UNCC net price calculator, and I thought that it is somewhat low, but UNCC said the starting salary for electrical engineers would be 70000-80000$. How do the statistics differ so much?

Academic What can I do to get accepted?

5 Upvotes

UNCC is 100% my dream school but I think reality is finally catching up to me. As of right now, I have a 2.9 weighted gpa and three generally unimportant clubs in my resume. I'm a senior and I still need to take my SAT/ACT but am unsure what to do with so little time. Apparently me being hispanic from a lower class family could help me get accepted but I don't know how to put that towards my application. Realistically my chances are low but if I truly put in the effort, what could I do to get admitted?

Academic 91 credits, 120 needed, what to do

36 Upvotes

genuinely feel like my old advisor capital F fucked me over. my plan was that i was to graduate in Spring 2025, however, i met with my new advisor today discussing something unrelated to my credit hours, and that was applying to graduate school.

she told me that i would basically need 29, not including this semester, to graduate in Spring. my old advisor told me nothing about this, basically telling me that id be set and done in Spring. my new advisor told me a lot of students under this old advisor are stuck in the same issue, and i genuinely want to scream.

i’m taking basically 17 credits next semester, leaving me with 12 credits (four classes) left. i’m currently taking 16.

realistically, is there a way for me to graduate in Spring? whether it be through CPCC, half term classes, anything? i can’t afford to not walk in Spring honestly

Hi everyone, I’m a high school senior who recently got admitted into Computer Science BS at UNC Charlotte! I’ve generally heard that the CSC program at Charlotte is great and that there are a lot of job opportunities post-graduation, but going through this subreddit, I’ve seen that some of the teachers are “bad”, the math department sucks, etc etc. I have around 60 credit hours that I can transfer so I can cover most of my classes, but I’m just worried about the other CSC programs and classes that are required. Any answers would be appreciate!

Academic Attention Incoming Freshmen and Current Students

213 Upvotes

With the new semester approaching, I want to highlight something that often gets overlooked but is crucial for everyone's comfort—hygiene.

As an engineering student, I spend a lot of time in the Duke building and on the campus buses. When the weather gets rainy, the combination of damp clothes and a lack of deodorant can lead to some pretty unpleasant situations. Trust me, no one wants to walk into a class or a packed bus and be hit by a wall of bad smells.

It takes less than five minutes to apply deodorant in the morning, and it can make a huge difference. And for those of you who stay up all night in the library, that's no excuse to skip it! Please carry a stick with you, especially if you're on the go. Let's all do our part to keep our campus and our classes fresh and comfortable.

Stay fresh, everyone!

Academic ECU or UNCC?

23 Upvotes

I’m torn between ECU and UNCC. I want to become a software engineer and UNCC has a major in computer science with a concentration in software engineering. ECU has a major in software engineering. UNCC is known for its computer science program while ECU is known for its health program. ECU has a better social scene than UNCC. I prefer a better social scene but also good academia. I like the campus of UNCC better, but I also have a fear of missing out on the typical college experience at ECU. Which school would be a better fit for me?

Just seeing then CS job market it doesn't feel worth the stress. Besides I can always complete my degree later on with just a year left right? Or do credits expire.

Hi my name is robert and I am an alumni from UNC Charlotte I graduated with a degree in accounting and computer science. My public speaking skills need work but my calculus is pretty good so I decided I was going to start teaching a calculus lecture and running study hours for Calc 1 in the spring semester with a lecture once a week and study hours once a week. I was trying to gauge interest for calc 1? I got an A in both calc 1 and got a 100 overall in calc 2 as well so I am good at calculus and thought I would run it on zoom.

Is anyone interested?
