Our Student Website

We mentioned it once. Now here’s a whole page devoted to it. Why? Because we really want people to use it. (Plus we deleted a bunch of stuff from this to save paper and rainforests and stuck it on the web site. Nobody ever made it that far in the old guide anyway – who was to know that there was a section on where to get postage stamps in the medical center?..... Vending machine hiding in the corner outside the Atrium Gift Store, in case you were wondering)

What’s it got?

 

  • Message Boards: Post academic questions, personal questions, social events, even announcements and shout-outs that you just have to share. Some professors have agreed to moderate some of the forums as well, and if they haven’t, ask them to! The more we use this, the more useful it will become (and the more often people will check it!).
  • Class Resources: Co-op notes, anatomy radiographs, faculty software, extra class notes from professors… All sorts of stuff here, and you can upload your own useful stuff to help out your fellow students.
  • Photo Albums and other resources: The possibilities are endless, and some have been scantily used so far (the web site is still new and constantly being improved).
  • Personal Profiles: Share your AIM screen name or personal information with your classmates if you want, or not – it’s a fun way to find out a little more about those around you!

 

Note: As of right now, you still need to sign up for the Message Boards and the other stuff separately (this took me almost 9 months to figure out…), but it’s painless and easy to do!

 

Most important - the website was created by students and needs talented students to perpetuate!

  

The Future: The website is still growing and changing, so make suggestions and encourage others to take advantage of it. New sections are being added, along with reformatting of old sections, including information from old survival guides such as the Restaurant/Bar/Nightclub section (currently still in its infancy). Keep an eye out for bigger and better things!
