New CSLL students: ask questions here!

stesh

Around this time last year I found information about CSLL was very scarce to say the least.

So, I'm all ears: ask any questions you may have, and I will attempt to answer them.

Don't kid yourself Stephen, CSLL doesn't have any students :P

Tumble... weed...

There's a chap from Strasbourg in the timetables thread doing it. I'll let him ask away but he was wondering how to get his full timetable, not just the CS part.

A chap ay? I'm a girl. And i've already asked about the timetable

*facepalm.


I took a guess considering the bias that this kind of subject usually gets. Apologies.

accepted. But you've just helped confirm my fear that because of doing computer science eventually people will mistake me for a dude.

I hope you sleep well at night.

Clearly Lethal_Bullet hasn't seen the average CSLL class…

It seems to be roughly gender-balanced most years.

Or that because you do French you'll be mistaken for an Orts Student!

ok what is orts and why does it sound like something you really don't want to be mistaken for?

Well, never had any interest in the LL bit but would I not be right in terms of pure CS? The open day was at least 10 to one if not more. Interestingly, the UCD open evening for CS almost had more girls than guys But thats UCD.

And Stephen, its your failing here for not informing me, remember your conscription?

Another person going to start CSLL! With Irish rather than French, because evidently I must be mad. Nice to see I'm not the only person in the world doing CSLL, though.

Has anyone found the rest of the JF timetable yet? I could just wait for Thursday, but I want my timetable now, damnit.

stesh

I'm not sure about Irish, but I was able to go to the French department website and figure out when lectures are from there. And for linguistics, you most likely have two lectures a week, on Monday and Tuesday afternoons.

Hey guys, i'm about to start CSLF. Any clue how many hours of French lectures we're going to have a week ?

stesh

Probably one one-hour lecture, and three one-hour tutorials.
