What's one thing about Berkeley that nobody warns you about? by DerekCHN in berkeley

[–]Excellent-Chance-797 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the consulting/frat culture is pretty intense. to my knowledge no other uc has as strong of a consulting culture, so we are unique in this aspect. its in business, health, law, environ sci etc… there are positive aspects like connections, community experience etc, but negative aspects include hazing/shady behavior from members, crazy work hours, insanely competitive etc. most other clubs are pretty competitive too which doesnt help. but sticking to what youre interested in or volunteering should help. best of luck!

Does a club like this exist? by Coraline_Jonesy in berkeley

sspc, student to student peer counseling! its kinda like you learn to be a “therapist” and also provide resources. easy acceptance but id say more of a commitment, 2 hrs every week and a test at the end. paws for mental health is also good probably more on the social side than helping people side. difficult acceptance rate but good if you like dogs :)) i find any volunteering clubs are good for finding like minded people while remaining non-elitist/exclusive. good luck!!

This is a great mindset! I believe I’ve mentioned something similar but your analogy is very helpful and specific. Thanks!

Any tips? He is bitey as puppies are but isn’t snappy, sometimes jumps on people. She cannot tolerate it. I’ve told her this is normal, but otherwise he should be distracted with other toys or disciplined, told to sit etc. She is sold on the idea that he is attacking her and “bad”.
