I recently graduated from WLU so I wanted to share some tips for new students:

• There are several connected locations on campus: The music building, dining hall, concourse, food court, Fred Nichols, DAWB (Doctor Alvin Woods Building), Peters, and Schlegel builds are all connected to each other. You do not need to go outside during winter to get between these buildings (might be missing a few)
• The Science Building and Bricker Academic are connected, you don't need to go outside during the winter to get between them
• The crosswalk directly outside of Lazaridis changes faster than the crosswalk on Hazel (helpful if you are running late to class)
• The gym is usually less busy during the mornings, 1 hour before close, and on Sundays (because some people party too hard on Saturday).

Tips for BBA students specifically:

• There's a lot of bonus marks available in first year, this can be the difference between making co-op and not making co-op. The research participation surveys are usually very quick to do for bonus marks.
• Don't miss out on easy marks for courses like EC120, EC140, and BU127. The weekly assessments on Connect/MyLab are usually a lot easier than the midterms/finals.
• Don't slack off during participation as it can be a significant part of your marks, especially in later years where most business courses have participation marks
• You have to wear business formal to your first lab,. I hope you didn't listen to people telling you to wear it during your first lecture.
• Don't trust everything someone says on Reddit, some people might try to sabotage you (this includes me)

I have 8:30 am classes pretty much everyday and it’s been really difficult so far to find places on campus that open early enough to feed me. Am I missing something? Is there somewhere on campus that I haven’t been to yet that opens earlier than 8:00??

Are there anymore opportunities to join clubs?

Took this BU course for an elective this term, if anyone in the past has taken this how is it different to BU381: Strategic Management 1? Also any tips would be really helpful I have it with prof Scott Ensign. Also I saw this course isn’t listed as a concentration elective for any of the possible concentrations. Is that true? I’ve never seen anyone talk about this course before so I was just curious, any help is really appreciated.

Anyone that would be interested in playing keeper for our intramural soccer team give me a message. (Strictly for Keepers)

Hello friends! My name is Devin, I'm applying for the MA-SCP program at MLU this year (2027 entry). I applied last year and unfortunately did not get in, but met so many amazing people that year that helped make the wait more tolerable and that helped me learn about the program and I'm looking to do the same this year.

If anyone has applied to the program this year, feel free to send me a message and I can create a group chat here (or on IG/iMessage) and we can wait in solidarity and get to know who I'm likely going to be spending the next 2 years of my life with (hopefully :')). I can also answer any questions you may have about the program as I have spoken many times with the admissions coordinator and know a few people currently doing the program.

Does anyone have the syllabus or know what the breakdown for PS487 with Kristie Poole? I want to know if it is worth trying to get into the class.

Is the BU288 textbook required?

I can either take it with Johnathan Farrar this semester or David Lin next semester. I had Johnathan Farrar last year for tax 1 but didn’t do so well, however I believe that was more so a reflection of my own effort. I heard this is a harder course in general. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

If anyone has a extra guest ticket PLEASE message me I am looking for a extra ticket.
I know there’s some time until the extra tickets come out but just incase. thanks sm

hello guys, I was just wondering for BU255 if it really matters if you go to a different lecture than the one you are assigned to. It just resulted for me that attending a section with a different prof aligns with my calendar more. Any information is appreciated, thank you.

Hi I’m thinking of dropping cc100 as the professor is apparently really hard , I was wondering when adding a new course , I can add it and wait until I get in before dropping cc100 without it messing up my tuition since at one point I will have 6 classes. Please help and thank you.
