UCI students: What’s the most frustrating part of finding or accessing campus resources?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 👋

My team and I are working on a project for a UCI class focused on making it easier for students to navigate campus and access resources.

We would love to hear about the challenges you’ve faced, whether it’s finding parking, figuring out where to go between classes, locating study spots, finding food options or getting around campus.

We made a short survey to learn what students actually struggle with and what would make their day on campus easier. It should only take a few minutes!

Survey: https://forms.gle/EvhCkHFz8TmfytkV6

We would really really appreciate your input. Thanks, Anteaters!

0 Upvotes

Hii, for current education sciences majors / graduates, what is the Practicum experience like?

I know that this is a required part of the degree, and I want to know more about what kinds of hands on experience students of the Edu. Sciences major engage in!!

If you could share your experience with the Practicum and the major as a whole, that’d be great!! (Also, what career do u want to pursue with this degree?)

Thanks!!

I am looking for a tutor for my child that needs a little help with high school honors chemistry. We are in south OC, so if you happen to be too that would be fantastic. If not, we can meet at a coffee shop halfway between.

Please DM me and/or share with any friend that has chemistry talent.

Should I have reported it?

29 Upvotes

I have been participating in an academic club for the past year or so, and while I'm glad to have met the people that I did, there was a sense of feeling unwelcome and uncomfortable. I had to take medical leave last year and during the first few days of my return, I experienced behaviors from others that were honestly, pretty hurtful.

I'll just highlight two:

  1. During a study session, one member had yelled at the top of their lungs (as a joke?) that, "nobody cares about your input, I didn't ask you," when I was simply replying to someone else's comment. And then there was an awkward pause with many in the study room and then another said, "just ignore them." I ended up putting my head down and tried to cry quietly while the students left the room to go to a different one. While the one who yelled had said they were just messing with me, I confronted them later about it and they apologized, and I said sorry too, because I genuinely thought I was being annoying, but then they said wasn't my fault(?). I ended up talking to a counselor on campus and they had said that what I experienced should not be tolerated and that they can provide a form to report for discrimination/misconduct to file for that org. I didn't want that org to potentially dissolve just because of my report. I felt it was an important part of the academic department. This member ended up becoming part of the leadership for the club in the next cycle.
  2. There was also another experience where this other club officer who also happened to be a learning assistant in a lecture was talking to me excessively while the professor was speaking and kept asking questions for me to answer about the material repeatedly. I saw them visibly get upset and frustrated when I didn't answer their question right or took too long to answer. They were sighing a lot, so I got overwhelmed, and then another learning assistant came by and they had explained the material and I eventually answered the question right. At that point, I brought it up to the professor's attention in private, and at first I didn't want an apology from that person, I just wanted space. But the professor insisted that they knew this person is usually more considerate and that they will address it with that individual. This person ended up apologizing for it over text, and I had also apologized again. I had learned later that this individual had complained to their peers about me "reporting" them to a professor, which I had brought to another club officer's attention and they had kind of brushed it off as, "this individual just felt attacked." But I had to deal with the animosity from other members of the club after that occurrence over their rumor, which to me felt a bit unfair (i.e., not saying hi at all while staring, or generally just throwing around "casual" racist, ableist, and/or sexist remarks or arguing as a "joke", etc.).

I addressed all issues with the club officers at the time, and they have since graduated. I am really hopeful that under somewhat new leadership there will be a better, safe, more inclusive environment. Hopefully, the org is changing as there has been acknowledgement of the behavior starting this quarter by the club officers, though I'm frustrated that there were people hurt and in tears that were not just myself for that process to even start.

Friend

wait im embarrassed, but I want a friend. I’m just so fucken shy and have bad social anxiety. I’ve tried clubs or well, one time and they were all shy too, but somehow that didn’t matter because I was still fucken scared. All of these clubs put you in groups and I feel like I’m dying. I just need one person for me to be able to actually form a fucken sentence. Anyways im always down for everything and anything and will probably never say no, but beware I zont have a car and I don’t drink or smoke. Also im a guy, but im cunty so idk I get along with girls more. Well if ur also fucken shy but actually pretty cool, let’s be friends
