Berkeley Housing (Channing Bowditch): Is it too late to request a change?

Hi all. I accepted my lease for channing bowditch apartments, but am wanting to get out of it. Does anyone know if it is too late to switch, or how to go about that? I heard that they accomodate you if you have someone to switch with, so anybody wanna offer up their housing offer [...]

Room changes

First-year student here; I got a room allocation (Marg Add @ Vic) that I’m not very happy with and my mum is downright against (due to the large number of people + co-ed toilets). My mum wants me to bug the rez people, but I thought I’d just ask here to get a feel of [...]

Dorm. Parking

Does Clark Kerr or any of the other dorms offer parking for students?

Literature of Revolution.

This is the subject I’m studying right now and I think I was the only one in the tutorial that wasn’t gung-ho about revolution. I voiced my opinion and I literally got attacked from all corners of the classroom. I was not prepared to say in the least. I will probably get more into it [...]

U of T to close its rifle range

http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2007/07/30/gun-range.html This really sucks. I did a lot of shooting in rifle ranges as a young cadet. It’s a sport of discipline, precision and self-control. It has absolutely nothing to do with violent gun crime and murder, and the safety records of gun ranges are always through the roof. Biathlon is a freaking olympic sport! [...]

PSYC1001

I’m just wondering if anyone here ever took PSYC1001 (Intro to Psychology) with Christopher P Motz ? If so, how was the course? I don’t normally pay much attention to sites like ratemyprof.com and whatnot but it seems like all the users there found the midterm + final INCREDIBLY hard and they’re almost implying that [...]

writing it up

I’m a 2nd year Ph.D. student in history.  I had a research fellowship this year, so I’ve spent the summer traveling and doing research at relevant archives.  It’s been great.  Now that I’m home and need to write up the research, though, I’m getting stuck.  I need to write up the research for several different [...]

Student Records & Statistics Blues

I ordered a transcript from Student Records two weeks ago, and there’s been no reply. Their website–and their confirming e-mail–warn me sternly not to get in touch before 28 days have passed, but I’m kind of anxious to know whether they have in fact received my request. Do you reckon they’d be grumpy if I [...]
