To the person putting anti-vaxx papers in the newsboxes by Algonquin college

I threw them in the trash.

I will continue throwing them out every time I see them and while I had already drank my coffee that day I will make sure to save some next time so I can dump the rest all over your papers to make them unrecoverable.

I pass by a few of these stands every day and I will get rid of any that I see... Don't worry I carry hand sanitizer.

By the way, you are a giant piece of shit.

Sincerely,

A concerned citizen

Algonquin College Biotechnology

Hi!

I am starting Biotech in a couple of days now. I'm feeling really nervous.

If anyone has taken or knows someone who has taken it before can you help?

I was just wondering what the course load is like? I did pre-health advance and it was too much and I and to drop down to 4 courses to keep up. I really don't want that to be the case where I feel like my plate is too full and have to drop courses. I'd like to finish this in the 3 years it's supposed to take.

Also, on that, has anyone else felt they needed to drop courses and take longer to finish biotech?

Any advice?

Thanks!

Can those not enrolled at Algonquin College still visit the Ottawa Campus?

In this case, I am a student but would like to tour the campus with a friend who ISN’T a student. Is this allowed? Not sure if the current COVID policies allow and I couldn’t really find anything online (though I honestly didn’t do much searching).

Lost Drivers License at Algonquin College

UPDATE: FOUND

Hey this might be a long shot but I went to the Algonquin College Salon to get my hair cut yesterday and I lost my drivers license. I’m not a student at Algonquin and I’ve already called the salon and security asking if they have seen it, but they haven’t yet. So if you see a drivers license anywhere in Building A or around the salon, please DM me!!

Do NOT go to Algonquin for Pre-Health if you’re planning on applying to competitive programs at other colleges.

Algonquins letter grades will be rounded down by some colleges. My A+ (92%) average is seen as an 85% to Cambrian. My goal was MRT which at Cambrian has an 86.25% cutoff so it’s impossible to get accepted no matter my grade.

Edit: the point I’m trying to get across is that if you’re not sure exactly where or what you want to take after the pre-health program, look into the pre-health programs at other Ontario colleges with numeric grading systems to keep all your doors open. If you’re dead set on going to Algonquin afterwards, AC pre-health is still a fantastic program.

I have no previous experience in coding or using the Adobe Creative Cloud collection. I am considering taking this program so that I can change my career path entirely.

Will this program be worthwhile in terms of job prospects after completion? And for relevant jobs in Ottawa, will bilingualism be required? Thanks.
