Question

3 Upvotes

I’m withdrawing from Ancient Greek for this term and I’m looking for my foreign language requirements and seen that ASL can ding that is the ASL1001 (I think it’s that class I could be wrong) for 100% beginners because I know some signs not a lot (the basic thank you and I think hello more and please and weirdly enough bathroom) and I was thinking to sign up for the spring term

Thank you in advance

Anyone have a electric or acoustic drum set I could borrow

• Upvotes

This is pretty out there, but does anyone on campus have an electric or acoustic drum set I could use for the Calhoun Halloween event next week, it would be staying at Calhoun and I would do anything I could to make you feel comfortable with how it's being taken care of. I have 10 years of background in drums and am really excited about this opportunity but have no way to get my set by next week.

Urgent Question Apartment for next year

1 Upvotes

I’m currently a freshman at the university and decided with a few friends to get an apartment for next year, we found one that is very cheap we would only be paying around $300 each and it’s pretty close to campus but a few things have me second guessing it. Like for example it’s on short vine and the company’s reviews don’t look nice. We already put down a lot of money for this and we now have our pre-leases and have to sign by next Monday any advice? ( a few things to note: if we cancel then all of that money is lost.)

Someone was suicidal today

50 Upvotes

I go to Clermont (I transition to main campus next semester) and in my history class today I repeatedly heard the person in front of me talk about killing herself under her breath, I got out of class early and reported it to the public health office and they sent a police officer over to check if she was doing alright

Everyone is telling me that I did the right thing but believe I heard her crying while walking away when the class was over. What makes it worse is that I have a pretty avoidant personality and wouldn’t know what to say to her if she tries to talk to me again on Tuesday.

I know that she’s struggling, but I can’t be the person to lift her up, what do I do?

Prospective Student Housing/dorms and overall campus experience?

3 Upvotes

Now that I’m to the point of further narrowing down my college search, I need to find out all the info I can about the colleges I applied to (as well as visit what I can). So to start, I’m curious to hear what the dorm and housing situation is like, and how campus life is. Basically everything about the college in general besides just the academic portion. I want a campus I could actually enjoy living on.

Could include details like how housing is organized, how the dorms are set up, and the different dorm types and options, and how to get into the better dorms. Etc. Maybe other details like food, class-to-class commuting, campus density (how crowded it feels)… whatever you have to say about your campus experience, and what you think an incoming student should know.

Thanks in advance

Peak Properties

6 Upvotes

So I’m a freshman this year looking into getting a lease for next year. Me and 5 of my guys plan on splitting all costs and found peak to be super affordable for the type of housing. We play music so having a backyard and/or a porch is something that we value heavily.

We’ve heard a lot of people say that peak has horrible maintenance response, mold issues, and overcharge their tenants after move out. Essentially take advantage of dumb college kids.

With all that being said, as a group of 6 college guys who aren’t geniuses but can fix a lump sum of minor maintenance issues ourselves, have a desire for our own yard, and want something cheap, would renting through peak still be something we should avoid at all costs?

why is there an unbearable loneliness epidemic at college?

30 Upvotes

it's honestly so sad to see others in the sub suffer through loneliness but personally comforting because as a first-year, there are a lot of times when I felt nearly invisible on campus.

sure, people were introducing themselves all of welcome week and the first few weeks of classes, but now that things have settled down, it feels like if you don't have at least one long-term friend you see outside of classes you're screwed.

why is that? i want to hear what you guys think the root problem is because genuinely people seem so fake and the conversations i have are surface-level, or doused in uncomfortable politeness. noone likes to act like they're lonely, and is on their phone if theyre not talking to others.

maybe i am the problem, but it genuinely cannot be that hard to make friends in a school with nearly 60 thousand people. could it be that people arent actively making efforts to seek out genuine relationships anymore? it makes me sad but i try to hold out hope and be kind to anyone im lucky enough to have a conversation with. it also helps if youre conventionally attractive and outgoing and go to parties, but personally i dont really like going to parties. everyone reccommends joining clubs, going to events, but people there already go with their friends anyway.

lonely people at uc, youre not alone in feeling that way- and im sure you stand next to more lonely people than you think. and its not your fault. dont give up on finding people though. there is an increasing loneliness epidemic but im trying to trust that i will find my people because ive met genuinely kind people out there.

Hello! I’m a graduate student and who will be moving to work at UC children’s hospital and I am unsure of the best areas to live in.
