    I was reading through old posts and saw something about getting a letter before the results come out if you've failed something? Does this still happen?

    AFAIK, no. I've never failed so I don't have any first hand experience, but I don't think so

    Anyone know if the print room will be open before the start of the semester? Ideally before the 6th of Jan

    I'm glad I didn't go back to Limerick last night like I was planning to now. Don't fancy a night with no electricity in Dromroe if I'm honest. :P

    It'll be fine. The power's only meant to be off until tomorrow morning so the residual temperature in the freezer should keep things frozen. The time of the massive storm last year we'd no electricity for about 4 days and stuff in the deep freeze was still frozen solid, so tbh I wouldn't worry too much about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,555 ✭✭✭Ave Sodalis


    Hope so, I left chicken in there just before I left so I dunno how frozen it got.

    I have a graduation coming up in a few weeks. Anyone know the story with the caps and gowns etc?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,263 ✭✭✭shano_88


    When do ye reckon the timetables for next semester will be out?

    I'd say sometime next week. They came out on the 10th last year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    TIMETABLES ARE UP!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,861 ✭✭✭FlyingIrishMan


    Wow, 9am start every single day, and the earliest I finish any day is 3pm..

    8 til 6 Monday, 9 to 6 Tuesday (majority of this is the same two lectures from Monday who for some reason, despite being the more simple modules are demanding the most of our time). The rest of the week isn't too bad and Friday leaves me free to get the bus home on occasion. As nice as the rest of the week is, I still don't have enough non-lecture time...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,799 ✭✭✭onethreefive


    Great timetable everyday except Tuesday! :p:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 619 ✭✭✭iLaura


    Only thing on a Friday is a tutorial from 11-12 :D The rest of it is only alright.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,780 ✭✭✭jamo2oo9


    What a shít timetable I got.


    Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, in at 9, finish at 5/6. Wednesday, in at 9, finished at 12.


    Why couldn't I have the Wednesday's timetable swapped over with Friday..? Makes more sense seeing that I have to be home at weekends for work and it's a really long commute :(

    Mine is lovely this year. No 9ams (I'll have one, but that's from an extra module so that's my own fault) and finished by 4 every day. Also finished at 3 on Fridays so can catch my bus no bother!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,009 ✭✭✭✭wnolan1992


    Yeah, I have 9 contact hours for my final semester in UL. Gettin' all emotional here... :P

    Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are 9am starts, but realistically I'll be starting at earlier most days anyway, so can't really complain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 230 ✭✭sibby


    Cheers for all the 9 o'clock starts! Here's hoping some of them inconvenience the lecturers like they did last semester and get changed around.

    Is the Students Union open? Want to get a student travel card from there. If it's not, any idea when it is?
