Give me a new library! Everytime I go to UL I die a little inside at how much better theirs is.

Requested to stay in Limerick for Infant TP in May, for some reason the TP Department decided it'd be grand if they just sent me to a school at home instead.
Its funny that I get a home placement when I didn't ask for it and a load of other people get Limerick placements when they ask for home
Not meaning to rant or anything, just a small annoyance.

On another note, its nice to see that all the computers in my room for today's maths exam crashed during the exam.
Great preperation there Mary I. As if an exam wasn't stressful enough already, we had to stop our work and relocate to a different room. Total farce

Was that T3.04?
Room is a nuisance when more than around 10 people seem to use it.

Nope, it was T.302.I ts funny that you mention that because half of us were moved to T3.04 which meant that every computer was being used in there for the exam. Absolutely no hitches in there

As an MA student the postgrad reading room in summerville is the only space we really have but since the grad dip has started in January its more like a common room. They are all arriving in for huge group chats and laughs and making it impossible for MA students to focus on real work....they have absolutely no respect for the other people in the room and use it the same way the canteen is used!...no where to complain about it and to be honest nobody really cares about the MA's which there is a substantial number of....grad dips should have there own space altogether and leave us have the small bit of space we have been granted to work.

**dambarude** · 21-04-2012, 15:48

Is that reading room not a silence zone or some such?

Smic16 · 21-04-2012, 19:29

Its S106 the room which holds the computers for taught postgrads....The level of noise in there is gone beyond people chatting to a group gathering....If heard Fennesseys quieter at times!....Its not the place for grad dips to be holding group gatherings and discussions in groups of 5 or six about exams or nights out!....

**dambarude** · 21-04-2012, 20:15

And is it only grad dips that talk? TBH I'm surprised, the grad dips are usually fairly mature and conscientious. Ye'll have to get some vuvuzela posters like they have in the library

Smic16 · 21-04-2012, 22:26

Yeah its all grad dips.....I know that for def!....they outnumber us really as there might only be a handful of us in there and there is normally a dozen if not more of them in there!....I really think although they are postgrads they should be kept seperate from the other taught postgrads!

brid_m · 26-04-2012, 10:26

I've just started the Grad Dip in Feb and I think its a bit unfair to tar all of us with the same brush. I appreciate the noise levels have been crazy in there at times and have certainly gotten on my nerves too. However, while we have had our occasional chats and laughs, its not the new intake making the majority of the noise, its the previous year. Should add though its not all of them either, just a handful!!

splk87 · 26-04-2012, 11:04

I think you will find that the sign on the door of S103 says COMPUTER/READING ROOM. There are no silence signs up anywhere. This is a computer room for post grads separate from the main ones in the the foundation building. Are you telling me that there is complete silence in the main computer rooms??? I don't think so. There is constant noise there.

I suggest if you are looking for a silent place to study you go to the S106 in summerville which is the READING ROOM.

Welcome to all our new whingers

. It's great to see new posters.

Just remember to keep it civil!
