It is a bit of a hole compared to some colleges

i'm in ITT i wouldn't say it's a hole persay... it is what you make of it tbh. i don't think its that bad!

Rb

I hate it tbh, won't go into it but if you're interested as to why, check out the last threads in the IT Tallaght forum, they'd be from like last october or whatever.

so it obviously wasn't your first choice thats crap. the only thing that annoys me are the cliques! so frustrating :mad:

Rb

which cliques?

ye should try to get your it tallaght forum going and make it popular guys

Rb

I used it last year, like 6 people at max posted onto it, not worth it, should be taken off boards IMO.

Lilly81

do you guys have your own message board on a college website or something?

Rb

Lol no,
They wouldn't put a forum on the college site and also, they've all internet forums banned from access in the college, including boards :rolleyes:

not only fourms but you cant access any email except for the student email

Rb

Yeah that's totally retarded.And, our student mail sucks, i mean, whats the sceal with the addresses [email]X00044444@itnet.ie....oh[/email] its so great, just like everything else in the college :rolleyes:

KillerShamrock

I think the title of this thread should be changed to 'anyone from ITT so we can bitch about it'
the orignal poster hasnt even replied

Lilly81

you cant look up hotmail or anything? i honestly have never heard of that in any other college. there must have been trouble a while back or something for them to ban all that? the only thing banned on our pcs in maynooth is chatrooms i think.

Rb

yep no hotmail, no instant messengers, no forums (even though boards has a forum dedicated to the college)....no streaming audio/video...

Girl21

Well..actually I can say nothing about ITT because I've never been there yet...but I'm coming to Dublin to study there as Erasmus Exchange Student...:)

Girl21

What can you say interesting about this Institute? maybe sth about student acivity, sport? Is is really so good as it is written on ITT web site?
I regret there are no forums, etc on their site...I like to get to know new ppl and I had to post it here on boards.ie.

Rb

To be completely honest,
No, there is absolutely nothing interesting to do in the college.There in a "Student Union" building that is actually a wooden shack, with two low grade pool tables(which are nearly always in use), a couch and a dvd player.
You'll most likely have ridiculous time tables, some of my lectures last semester had 3-5 hour breaks in between them, so the majority of the time i went home and didnt come back in.
What can I say thats interesting about the institute?Well an interesting fact is that they've a student body of 2500 people and the capacity for 1500, which says alot.
Oh and I hope you like grey brick walls because theres no paint in the colllege either.

Girl21

Heh..the building..never mind..I don't care about it, but I hope ppl will be welcoming:P In my last college there were about 90% of girls...hope here in ITT is another proportion:)
But this timetable can be a bit disturbing...as I want to take part-time job...we'll see:)

Have a nice day:)

My sister was Presitend of the Students Union in IT tallaght two years ago!!!

Funkstard

Oh god how I would hate to go to ITT, especially reading what you're saying! Do you all live near it? Getting there from Killiney-abouts would be hell

Rb

no its a 45 minute bus trip every morning, and the bus is dodgy, could be 40 mins late some days so you're waiting basically an hour at the bus stop most mornings...then again...i very rarely went in last year

whoo, 600th post!

sinjin_smythe

well im there 2 years now and am going into 3rd year, id say that as far as socials and sport go tallaght is pretty good. They do make efforts to help new students in their first year, and well the women... there all pretty hot. Ive got friends in DIT UCD Trinity Maynooth and they all agree that the women in Tallaght are something else. Most lecturers are very good at what they do but i will admit there are a few dic*heads. Anyone else want to share their experience ???

I have to disagree about the women, in my year(going into 2nd) theres like 4 at most!verry disappointing.

Freshers week should be good again, i hate the redbox with a passion but it was a bit of a laugh last year so ill probably go again this year.

Girl21

And are there any girls over here? Maybe something about boys???;p;p;p

As Echxange student I can choose between courses of 1st,2nd,3rd,....year, nothing regular....so it is possible that I meet some of you during classes (if you will attend them of course:P)
to rb_ie: if buses are late every morning, would it be better to find accommodation near LUAS right?
