<p>OK I thought UROP would be cool when I first signed up but then I kept hearing bad things about it (pointless, time consuming...). Now I only have a few days to decide whether to do it or not. So who's doing it, who's dropping it, and why?</p>
<p>I'm doing it for the money and the workshops. I'll try it for a semester and see what happens.</p>
<p>I'm doing it for the academic credit.</p>
<p>For work study.</p>
<p>I originally signed up for credits but then realized they would be free elective credits, which I don't wanna use yet. Anyone know how much you'll get paid? When/where do you go to find your project?</p>

<p>I heard you can get paid $10. Don't take my word for it, the person wasn;t very clear so I may have misheard. There is a manditory workshop the Wed after classes start. On Thurs you may start looking for a project. I think this is what the letter said.</p>
<p>I have never done any sort of formal lab research, I would like to meet important and influential profs., and I would like help on my resume writing skills, so I thought this would be a good experience.</p>
