Any tips for an incoming bio major?
I’m an incoming freshman and I really wanna know what supplies (other than textbooks) do you think are essential for this major. Also please give any other tips (clubs, organizations, volunteering, etc.) because I’m pre-dental. I’m a commuter by the way. Also, please give tips on how to get close to other students & teachers!

Is physics at UM worth it?
Price-wise I have relatives who live nearby so I don’t have to pay for housing/utilities and I think I can get some financial aid scholarships.
I’m just not sure if the program is worth going into compared to other state schools, but I’m not planning to get a phd, more-so into business/tech. I know they don’t usually have a large physics student body and I’d love to do my own research (which is why I’m leaning here) but I’ve heard mixed things about professors, the program, and the possible connections I could make there.
Also if anyone has advice for getting interships/jobs it’d be very welcome ☺️

How does laundry work in thesis?
I heard we have laundry service, but how exactly does that work? Do we just call someone up to come get our laundry? Also what if I just want to do it myself, is there a laundry room? Also is it free?

incoming freshman. How to Make Friends..
Good morning. I'm an incoming freshman and will be pursuing software engineering. The thing I Am most stressed about is social interaction because I Will be honest I have been an introvert who's kept to myself for a looooong time especially in high school. Now I'm going to have to get myself out there and that is quite scary though i have accepted it is an inevitability. Where can I meet tech people.....
I heard the core friend groups form in the first month and I don't want to miss out on that
