- Where did you grow up?
I grew up in College Station, Texas. Home of the AGGIES!!! WHOOOP!
- What high school did you attend?
I attended College Station High School
- What was your favorite extracurricular activity in high school?
Either Band or Wrestling. Both were really fun and I made lots of friends doing it.
- Why did you come to UT?
I wanted to get away from my hometown but also not completely run away out of state.
- Why are you majoring in CS?
I enjoy CS as I think it has a lot of different paths that one can go. So by choosing CS, I still had a lot more options than other majors.
- Why are you in this class?
I am intersted in more front end development and there really isn’t a better class to get that experience from than this class right here.
- What are your expectations of this class?
For it to get rough at times, but I know that I will also learn a lot.
- How much do you know about Javascript/Python/SQL/Web programming?
In terms of knowledge, it would probably go Python >>> Javascript = Web Programming > SQL
- How did you like the first lectures?
The frist lectures were fun. However I am in the SWE class with the same teacher so the first classes were really repetitive since the classes have the same format.
- How did you feel about the cold calling?
Scary stuff, but I think it won’t be as bad as anxiety makes it out to be.
- What do you think about specifications grading?
I agree with the 4 point grading scale. That makes sense for more realistic evaluation standards. However, the final grade being the lowest of all the columns feels a little silly to me, but I’m sure the profs have done lots of experimentations with this system and so they have good reason to have it like this.
- What made you happy this week?
I am currently in Vegas and had a nice streak going at a blackjack table
- What’s your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?
I know its not new, but the computer roll call for the UT machines is always a helpful website that I use to see what computers get the most traffic of people. I try to find one of the not popular ones to use when I SSH.
