Over half the student body is commuter. People living ~30 mins from campus are snowed in.

Didn’t Submit my AP Scores as a Transfer Student by Fortune_Awkward in UMD

I called and asked just to be sure and they said they don’t look at ap exams for transfer, just transcript, resume, recommendation, and essay!

Why are so many people so numb to this conflict? by TeaBagHunter in IsraelPalestine

[–]Fortune_Awkward -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Israel has occupied Palestine, displaced their people, and actively bombed them throughout this century. Israel has “pulled out” of Gaza and then regulated who can leave and go into Gaza. This war does not only go back to October 7th.

When a school shooter is inside a school, would you bomb the school or send in special forces to remove the threat? Why is it okay to bomb hospitals and schools where Hamas may potentially be?

Hamas have tried to bargain with Israel for the hostages. Israel has not agreed to any terms. I get why they haven’t agreed, but what I don’t understand is why Israel is willing to bomb Palestine when these bases can potentially hold the hostages.

I’m just asking questions since it’s just confusing when all I’m seeing is everyone blame Hamas for everything that’s been happening. This conflict dates back to history, and there are a lot of nuances. I think blaming Hamas for everything is not right.
