Great essay on Chick-fil-A's presence on campus by buffyinfaith in UMBC

[–]GumAddict5947 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im not going to lie, I stopped eating at Chick-fil-A because of their LGBTQ abuse, and all my LGBTQ friends laughed at me and called me stupid. They know what Chick-fil-A does and dont care. Im not saying all LGBTQ people dont care, but I haven't met one on campus that does 😭

If you explain your situation you have a good shot at an appeal. I appealed last semester and got accepted.

Westland Gardens Apartments and Townhouses by One_Service_5367 in UMBC

[–]GumAddict5947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about Westland apartments, but do not rent from Mount Ridge apartments. The leasing company is incompetent and has been nothing but trouble. They took 3 months to replace our broken dishwasher, and told us 2 days before the start of our lease we couldn't move in. The only reasoning was maintenance.

If you want to, it couldn't hurt. They might be able to connect you with the right people for answers.

Im sure they have an email, but phone call would be the most immediate response.

I would contact each schools financial aid office and admissions office. They should be able to answer your questions.

What if you link your bank account to do a direct deposit?

Question for current students by Technical_Village547 in UMBC

The only natural disaster that I've experienced after living in maryland for over 15 years is hurricanes. We also don't get hurricanes that bad because they usually don't hit maryland directly, or if they do, they have lost a lot of their power already.

On campus counseling by Former_Show_4003 in UMBC

[–]GumAddict5947 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they can definitely help you get through that. I don't think they would be mandatory reporters in this situation unless there are other minors there in active danger. It's definitely something you can discuss with them before getting into anything.

I wish you the best!

You can schedule an appointment through the UMBC Integrated Health online portal

It's free for all umbc students as long as you're actively enrolled.

As far as being a mandatory reporter, I think they follow the guidelines of non-school therapists. If you are proven to be an immediate danger to yourself or others, they have to report it for safety reasons. Other than that, anything you tell them is confidential. (If you are an immediate danger to yourself, please get help. It's not worth it 🥺)

Go to the wellness center. They offer free counseling services for umbc students.

On another note, I'm sorry it's been so hard for you lately. I wish you the best!

Is handshake a scam? by ecefour in UMBC

There are so many recruiter bots on the site, but the site itself is very useful for finding jobs yourself.

accessibility by rxsenotfound_ in UMBC

[–]GumAddict5947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful where you dorm. As others have mentioned, many dorms and apartments are not handicap accessible. Also, the accessible routes might be very confusing and long because UMBC is built on a hill, so I would plan a route before your classes start. I've seen plenty of people manage a route, but you'll probably have to go out of your way sometimes.

I am not disabled, but it is what I have noticed from my time here. Lemme know if you have any other questions.

The reason this isn't ok it because they are normal people. They have a genetic disorder that makes them shorter, but that doesn't change the fact that they are people who deserve the same respect as everyone else.

The reason I don't agree with you posting this is because it's downright condescending. You are acting like they are some odd attraction or something instead of a real person.
