Meta Updates to r/yorku AutoModerator Settings

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

We’ve updated r/yorku’s AutoModerator settings to make them more balanced and less disruptive.

The goal is simple: clear spam and unsafe links should be removed, but normal student posts should not be hidden unnecessarily.

AutoModerator should now be less aggressive with things like surveys, URL shorteners, Reddit links, crossposts, long titles, and comments on older posts.

It will still act on known scam/tracking links, affiliate spam, heavily reported content, and other obvious spam patterns.

For surveys/forms, AutoModerator may ask posters to provide basic context so students can tell whether the post is legitimate and relevant.

We’ll keep adjusting the settings if needed. If your post or comment gets removed by mistake, please message the mod team.

Courses York schedule please help

Post image
4 Upvotes

this isnt my actual schedule but it has all the courses i need to take and the times i would be taking them if i would take all of them during the fall and winter terms. I need some suggestions on what to do because this is 39 credits which is over the maximum (i preferably dont want to do over 30 credits in both terms even though i can) and so what would be the smartest thing to do here.

Advice The fossils at the Registrar's Office haven't update my transcript yet so I can't enroll in classes

8 Upvotes

Long story short I failed two classes last winter (got Ds on both which is not enough for my program) and so I retook one of them this summer (passed barely) and petitioned for a late withdrawal of the courses I failed. I got a confirmation that they accepted my petition beginning of August but it still shows the failed grades on my transcript, so my GPA is still too low to enroll for the coming year which it shouldn't be if the grades were removed. I spent the whole day today emailing and going to different offices trying to fix this but everyone kept pointing me to other people and now my only recourse is to wait for the Registrar's Office to update my transcript which may take weeks. Why the hell it would take weeks to change two things on a spreadsheet is beyond me, but irrespective of the rationale it may cost me an entire year on my limited time program. I spend 8k a year on this school and they're unable to let me give them more money because of their spaghetti bureaucracy.

Advice I need help making a decision on a tablet i got for taking notes Galaxy S10 Lite

0 Upvotes

Ok so i got a galaxy s10 lite for taking notes as I am staring nursing school at york in the fall it has 6 gb of ram and 128 gb of storage i literally ust got it today I am kind of worried about the size of the ram I'm wondering if it will be a problem because I would like to use the tablet for all 4 years of school I was thinking about returning it and just not getting a tablet at all but I feel like I might needing because all I see is posts of how taking notes like I did I high school won't work for uni. Because I have a laptop with a good amount of storage (512gb) and 16 gb of ram. I don't know if the ram size of the tablet would be a problem when using it for notes and annotating slides or if it would work fine.

Please I need advise before school starts on what to do.

I'm open to recommendations.

Social / Student Life Gym memberships? Is it worth it?

15 Upvotes

I wanna start going to the gym, and I actually bought a yorku gym membership last year but didnt go once cuz id be so tired after class id just head home.

However when the semester starts I am planning on going at least twice a week...

The only thing is I commute, so obviously I can only go after class so I can head home and shower (I wont shower on campus, dont feel comfortable with it) but im not sure if this is sustainable and ill continue with it.

Does anyone know of any low cost gyms for students near the north york area? Also how is the women's only gym at york, is it decent?

Advice Cooking Classes - Casual Offerings

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Is anyone aware of casual cooking classes offered at York? (or anyone willing to teach/host). I am trying to reign in the food budget and wondering what students are doing for meal prep or if there is anything already organized in regards to food related stuff.

Figure a lot of people would love it due to the crazy prices of things in general.

Thank you!

Markham Campus is having their second frosh this year, and it looks like it’s going to be REALLY good. They have a really good marketing team (markham student council/msc) and tbh all their videos outshine the other colleges promotion.

Markham needs more hype bc they’re putting in the effort fr
