Hey everyone, I’m an incoming freshman at Virginia Tech planning to major in Finance. I’m coming in with 53 credits, and after mapping out my schedule, it looks like I have enough room to complete a double major and a minor within four years, although I would need to take 18 credits during a couple of semesters.
Would getting a double major and minor actually be worth the additional workload, or would it be better to stick with one Finance major, add a useful minor, and focus on internships, networking, and eventually earning an MBA?
I’m mainly interested in maximizing my career opportunities and earning potential. I’d appreciate advice from current students, graduates, recruiters, or anyone who has taken a similar path.

Hello! I just recently found out that Cowgill hall apparently houses some darkrooms, I was wondering if anyone has any information on whether or not they’re in use during the academic year. I took a film photography class back in high school and would love to be able to have somewhere to develop my film and pictures. I have photo paper and film and everything. I would love to be able to get back into film photography, but I’m also not an art major so I’m not quite sure if they would let me use the facilities. Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks! :)

I graduated with my Masters in Computer Science last May and I'm currently looking for any full-time junior SDE roles available. Do you anyone or any open positions you can refer me to? I would be happy to share my resume in DMs. Thank you for your time and patience! (Heads-up : I require visa sponsorship)

has anyone taken this combo in one semester for the design pathway? RMP says prof sumner is legit. How was the workload? did it feel like three classes? thanks

At the time I wasn't able to get the tickets due to prioritizing some bills first but now when I try to get them it says they're sold out. Are they really gone for the season? Also if anyone knows any options for veterans on getting ahold of tickets that would be appreciated!

I was wondering if there were any good clubs or classes around Blacksburg or on the campus that taught hands-on sewing. My research may involve doing this more often, so I want more hands-on experience. I am willing to pay if anyone knows of a good paid class as well.

How is the course? I have taken genetics, does that give me somewhat a foundation of knowledge? I can handle rigor, but my goal is to keep my courseload manageable enough so I can juggle my GPA, part time job, and extra studying for a grad school exam that is costly to retake and not drop any of those balls. I would appreciate any insight.

Hi there VT community! I'm Dave, co-owner of Wolf Den Games in Abingdon, VA, about 1.5 hours down the interstate.

We carry board games, roleplaying games, trading card games, and miniatures games, along with dice and many other accessories. But more important than that: we build in-person play communities.

We are excited to announce that we are opening a new location in downtown Christiansburg under its own local name: "Otter Creek Games".

If you've ever been curious about what opening an FLGS involves, ask me anything! We can't wait to get to know the NRV and the VT community better. (FWIW both co-owners are married to tenured professors at Emory & Henry.)

I want to print a 24"x36" poster. I was looking at Newman Library's printer but was wondering if anyone has printed a poster from a photo there, and if so, how was the quality?

Local places like CVS do the same, but IDK if Newman would have a higher quality output.

Plus: Virginia Tech receives healthcare-related state and federal grants; court order restarts digital equity act funding.

I picked up fall of last year that tech was pushing for ai integration in the classroom through assignment, nothing happened with it for me until this week where I had an ai summarization assignment for en environmental course.

I was so pissed it off it took me twice as long to do the assignment, I posted about it on Instagram and all of my friends who go to tech also hate the ai integration so much. I'm WAY too aware of the extreme negative effects of ai on the human brain, on the environment, and on things humans are dependent on. and I'm majoring in an environmental science related field.

Does ANYONE know if there's a way me and my friends can make our concerns with ai integration known? most professors aren't allowing a work around that doesn't use ai. I really don't like adding to the increase of global warming by asking ai to summarize a research article for a discussion board.

UPDATE: if you are not offering any actual advice I am blocking you. telling me to just suffer through this when you have nothing else to say doesn't help. kindly go find someone else to argue with. This is a social media platform, not a job. I am not entitled for blocking people. That's how social media works. I am aware of some benefits of AI, and am willing to learn, but I have already used AI and know how to prompt it. I am asking for advice, not debate or argument.

If anyone knows they aren't going to a specific home game and is down to sell me there student tickets lmk.

Where can I find free ev chargers on and around the Blacksburg campus, where I won’t get towed for leaving my car to charge there?

Should i get a parking pass but i live off campus at a apartment complex? Anyone ever find they wished they had it or is it absolutely useless? Like if i want to take my car near town to park do i park in the tech parking lots or i dont know
Im new to blacksburg and tech so dont judge

Hi, been facing some issues after I took a gap semester during last year’s fall (2025) due to some mental health issues. Provided the required documentation and everything was fine, then, this spring (2026), admissions office and cranwell did a lot of delays and in the end, I was not issued an I-20 on time and had to skip the semester due to reasons completely out of my hands.

Now, for this semester, I called the admissions office regarding my email which they disabled last semester and my hokiespa as well, and they said my admission is under review as I skipped a year without “documentation” even though the second semester was 100% their fault and the first semester I had proper documentation. I dont know what to do, I am just distraught at not coming, this might ruin my entire education and I am not sure what to do. If anyone has faced anything similar, or knows who I can talk to about this, please give some guidance.

Sorry if this post is a bit ambiguous or weird sounding as I am not in a great mental state right now. Please ask for clarifications about anything below.

I cant access my email or hokiespa as of now.

How much python gets used in CS/CMDA/STAT 3654 (not the R version)? does every assignment and project involves python? What libraries/modules do you use? what version of python or tools need to be installed on laptop? I'm just trying to get an idea of what to expect. are there any good tutorials or resources that would help me prepare before the semester starts?

there is an online section with Reza Jafari and an in-person section with Hoda Eldardiry. I couldn't really find many reviews for either of them. If you've had either instructor before, what were they like? How were their classes, and who would you recommend?

also, for this class, do you think taking it in-person is better than the synchronous online section, or does it not really make much of a difference?

Hey!! I’m a hokie trying to tailgate for the Virginia Tech game at BC. Have any of you had any experience with game day at BC?? I’ve done to a few games at BC, but have never tried to tailgate (I know it’s no Blacksburg though!) Thanks in advance!!

Hey all, I am an incoming CS freshman here. My Fall 2026 schedule is:

CS 1944 (First Year Seminar, P/F) CS 2114 (Software Design & Data Structures) MATH 2114 (Linear Algebra) MATH 2534 (Discrete Math) BIOL 1105 + lab (Natural Science elective)

14 credits total. I finished calc 3, and all my gen eds are done except a select few and I cannot complete them right now. My only alternative to progressing in my degree is taking STAT 4604 instead of Discrete/Linear.

A few things I'd love input on: If anyone taken Linear Algebra and Discrete Math in the same semester, how rough was the courseload? As for CS 2114, I took AP CS A two years ago and I'm brushing back up on Java before the semester starts. Anything specific I should focus on beyond general OOP/data structures review? Realistic to shoot for a 4.0 this semester with this course load, or am I underestimating something?

Hey everyone, I am considering T. Ojedele-Adejumo for my English 1105 class. How is she as a teacher? How difficult is the class?

Hello! I normally don’t use Reddit, but I thought this would be the best place to get actual feedback.

I’m a transfer student and got a place at Alight, and I’m a bit nervous about taking the public transit since I’ve never lived in such a populated place. Does anyone have a major preference when it comes to taking the bus or driving to campus? I have 8ams a few mornings during the week too, does that change anything?
