#uwindsor

I decided to stay at home for my university experience. The programs offered are very diverse with supportive professors. Going from high school to university was big transition. However, there is a lot of on campus support students. One of the courses I am currently taking is KINE 2040- Sports Nutrition which teaches students about how food affects athletic performance. I previously took MGMT 3420-Compensation Management which helps students develop pay strategies and job evaluation.

Some of the tools I would use on campus is the Leddy Library, and the Toldo Lancer Centre. Both places are quite good to de-stress. Both offer spaces for studying. However, the Toldo Lancer Centre also has multiple gyms available to students to help maintain good health.

I also used tools such as Notion for organizing class notes and the google calendar to help me manage deadlines and classes. A great tool for students is the academic advising department. This helped me stay on the right track for course requirements.

Some advice for new students:

-Check Brightspace multiple times a week

-Meet your professors during office hours if you ever get stuck on course material

-Do some type of extra curricular such as clubs or events

-Try to start your assignments days in advance(saves stress)

Some blogs to keep in touch with

If you're looking for something to do then blogs leddy.uwindsor.ca is the place for you. Keep yourself updated on campus activities.

It's also important to note that there are only 3 confirmed cases in our area and the two that have been reported on are due to travel, and working in an infected healthcare facility.

It depends on what program you’re going for tbh. The school isn’t awful, far from it, it’s just a small school that’s a bit underfunded. I’m currently in residence here and I’m having a pretty good time and enjoying my program (Dramatic Arts) though I’ve heard some programs get a little less space than us

(the computer science program has a portion of a floor in a building)

I’m only just finishing my first year right now though so I’m probably not the best to ask. I’d recommend you check out the r/uwindsor reddit as it’s much more active with actual students than tumblr is. 

In terms of things around campus there’s not much but you get a bus pass and there are some interesting places in Windsor, though make sure you have a passport so you can go to detroit for all the events there.

I pretty much went here for some specific courses on design as it pertains to theatre and because of the fact that it’s warmer than where I grew up.
