Questions about majoring in Political Science

4 Upvotes

I’m currently a senior and is set about majoring in political science. I wanted to know what is it like at UO? I’ve heard things here and there about majoring in this specific major, which are either negative or positive lol, but I personally love the field.

In short: is political science really worth it specifically at UO? Is it a difficult major as well? Sorry for all the questions 🌝 but thank you!!

Incoming Transfer Student (maybe)

1 Upvotes

I am considering transferring to Oregon and will be coming in my sophomore year. I am currently at a different university across the country and I am still deciding on whether or not I want to transfer. The thought of picking everything up and starting over again seems intimidating, but I am very excited if I am able to. Does anyone have any advice to offer, pros and cons of the school, or just any other general info? Also advice on how to decide where to live and how to get roommates would be great!

Hey everyone,
I’m a senior, and I still need 6 upper-division classes to graduate. I’m looking for easy classes with no long papers, and no group projects. So far, I know MUJ351 and ERTH305 are relatively easy. Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I totally forgot to renew my overnight parking permit for the winter term and had to get back on the waitlist. It seems like there is no more movement—what are my options for overnight parking nearby? I live in the dorms so anywhere that is safe and I can get to on bus will work fine. TIA!

UofO as a Whole

4 Upvotes

Hello!! Class of 2029 (upcoming class) here and I am majoring in Biochemistry

I was accepted into UofO and I was wondering to hear from current and past students: What does UofO bring to an out-of-state student? Is the community easy for me (a black girl) to adapt to? how is the biochem program and what does it come with and bring? How is the community outside of school?

Also are there many scholarships available? I was offered $50,000 ($12,500 per year) and currently waiting for FAFSA.

Ducks and childslavery

0 Upvotes

How can any minority or any person with any morals at all go to a school, or a football program funded by one of the largest child slavery rings in the world? Egotistical Elites telling all of us how "woke" they are while funding their programs using $$ from Uncle Phil. Amazing how this fact is ignored by the media, the people of Eugene and student at the U of O. You all suck, really and truly. How do you live with this?

best student housing, high quality/cheap?

2 Upvotes

any recommendations for high quality apartments that aren't too expensive? (preferably less than 1500 for a studio/one bed) i'm currently living at ducks village but definitely won't be next year, the place isn't horrible and it's actually not too bad for the price but management is pretty unprofessional and the apartments are a little gross. i'm looking for a place with actually good management, i don't really care about amenities again as long as the place is managed well, clean, and is furnished. i've been checking out ferry street flats, they seem pretty good, as well as patterson social and chase courtyard. thoughts?

Class Styles

Hi! I’m currently a sophomore at UO and I’m already trying to work out a possible class schedule for spring term, as my younger sister is graduating from high school on the first day of finals week. I’m hoping to know if you’ve taken these classes, if they had a traditional in person final or something like an essay or project that I wouldn’t have to physically be here for. Specifically the classes I’m wondering about are FHS 490, ANTH 176 and PSY 305. TIA!!
