For those of you who have done an ADHD evaluation specifically with Carleton’s health services, did any of you not get diagnosed with ADHD? Everyone I know of who got an evaluation got the diagnosis, including me. I’m skeptical that I have ADHD. There’s a lot of things much more common than ADHD that can contribute to issues with focus, executive functioning, and impulse control.

I’m wondering if health services overall might be too lax with the diagnostic criteria and not screening enough for other things if literally everyone is getting diagnosed with ADHD. However, I concede there are several possible legit reasons for why diagnosis rates could be high in this setting.

Alternatively, if you did get evaluated and diagnosed by health services, what gave you confidence that the evaluation was adequately thorough and didn’t miss other factors that could contribute to ADHD-like symptoms?

I've been dealing with groupmates who submit what appears to be AI-generated work without properly reviewing it. Some of the material doesn't align with the course content or previous assignments.

It's frustrating because other group members end up spending considerable time correcting or rewriting the work. There's also the concern that unauthorized AI use could create academic-integrity issues for the group.

I've raised my concerns with the professor and provided supporting evidence.

Has anyone at Carleton dealt with something similar? How was it handled? Did the professor or university take meaningful action?

I'm particularly interested in how others protected their own grades and ensured their individual contributions were fairly assessed.

hey!! i’m living in residence this year at carleton and looking to meet some new people!! i’d especially love to meet other girls, but i’m open to anyone :)

i’d love to have people to grab food with, study together, go on walks or hikes, or just hang out around campus with! i’m also trying to get more consistent with the gym, but i’m still pretty new to it and figuring out what i’m doing lol, so having a gym buddy to keep each other motivated and accountable would be really nice!!

going to the dining hall alone can feel a little awkward sometimes lol, so it’d be nice to have people to go with!

i’m into music, fitness, psychology, some anime, and reading. i’d also love to explore ottawa more, try new food spots, go to events or check out the nightlife, or just do random little activities together. i'm pretty open to trying new things!

i know there are clubs and events on campus, but i figured i’d put myself out there here too! sometimes it’s easier to meet people one-on-one or through shared interests, so i’d love to connect with anyone who’s also looking to make friends.

feel free to comment or message me!! ♡

im anxious and im scared of using the gym when its busy so im wondering if its open during reading week

You are invited to participate in the Long Haul Campus Study, the purpose of which is to gain an understanding of:

(1) the quality of life of university students in Ontario with Long COVID compared to students without Long COVID;

(2) the lived experiences of students with Long COVID; and

(3) what students with Long COVID perceive as needed to support their well-being and academic success. Participants will be asked to complete a short questionnaire that will take 10 minutes or less to complete 
 
To be eligible to participate in this study, you must:

(a) be enrolled as a full-time or part-time university student in Ontario (undergraduate, graduate, or professional student);

(b) be able to read and write in English; and

(c) have access to an internet-connected device.

This study has been reviewed and received ethics clearance through a Western University Research Ethics Board (REB #129457)

Hey y’all, I’m enrolled in PSCI 2601, and I’m wondering how heavy the final exam is. Was it hard? Lol, a girl’s traumatized.

Hello.

I am kinda confused between Science programs

There are 3 of them named like

-Science – Honours

-Science – Major

- Science – Non-Honours

What is the difference between these 3 science?

also

-Cognitive Science – Honours

-Cognitive Science – Non Honours

What is the difference?

I am applying to Health sci but i am kinda confused between the other 2 program because They offer alternative offer to Science Honours: Biology (Health Science) and Bachelor of Science Honours gives to science so if the alternative is guaranteed I might just apply to 2 program (Health sci and Sci Honours) ans save money

I am also concerned because Only Science Honours gives co-op but none of the others

Please let me know What are the best option for getting in and i dont wanna say (guaranteed) but like high chance of securing spot?

Thanks

Hi all,

I'm writing an article for the Charlatan on Daylight Savings Time, its health implications, and other provinces' decision to adopt permanent daylight time. I'm posting here because I would love to interview some student sources, preferably from a mix of provinces like BC, Alberta, or Manitoba where permanent standard time has been adopted as well as from provinces like Ontario, where it hasn't!

If you're interested in an interview, send me a DM and we can arrange one at a time and on a platform that's convenient for you! For accuracy, we ask that if you want to interview, you provide your full name so that the Charlatan can attribute your quotes back to you.

We would love to hear from you!

I'm currently registered for CLCV 1003 (Laura Gagne) and FILM 1101 (Jake Adam Pitre) for the winter term, but I'm having second thoughts about both.

I know there's no such thing as an effortless A+, but as a CS student, I'd prefer electives that don't take up too much time from my core courses, especially if getting a good grade still requires a lot of effort.

Would you recommend either of these courses? If not, are there any other manageable breadth electives you'd suggest? Preferably ones without essays.

Thanks!
