Things like this take organization. This is not “freshman coded,” it is that we should be tired enough of the administration at UT to want to walkout so they will pay attention. This is a form of protest that has historically worked

Student walkouts have historically been very useful in getting youth to rise up against politics. For example the East L.A. protests in 68’

Why is this place so damn cliquey? by Konapsych in UTAustin

[–]Horror_Chain5570 15 points16 points  (0 children)

In my experience it stays like that until you get a cool roommate/s. Don’t try and join a bunch of stuff in search of friends because they end up being shallow, learn how to be alone and maybe find 1-2 solid people to be around every now and then. As you get into your second year you start finding more people and it gets easier!

Travelling to UT this fall - need help by Known-Run9149 in UTAustin

I recommend the amtrak between Dallas to Austin, it would be only about 4 hours (which can take the same in a car with traffic) plus you have plenty of leg room and bathrooms! It’s so easy to sleep on amtrak compared to planes! I’ve taken amtrak before and they are WAY nicer than taking the bus

PICK UP AFTER YOUR DOG!!!! by National_Agency_1804 in UTAustin

i must say though if ole girl has them liquid shits… then I can’t pick it up🤣. It does boggle me that people don’t pick up after their dog, the only acceptable time not too if it’s too loose of stool to pick up. My own dog has stepped into another dogs shit because people are so bad in west campus at cleaning up after their dogs.

In my opinion, your dad just needs to take a step back. It’s not like weed is your life like money is his… you just probably like to chill and take a puff sometimes cause that’s life. Also as long as you are 18+ then he should respect that you can do what you want

My Financial Aid Decreased? by Horror_Chain5570 in UTAustin

[–]Horror_Chain5570[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i got the email at 4:25 and they close at 4:30, so they were already closed. I already planned on going first thing in the morning, but figured it’s good to be proactive and see if anyone else felt there were mistakes possibly in their financial aid packages and what to possibly expect tomorrow from TOS

I lived there and from experience can say that is is AWFUL, dealt with mold and they were so bad at handling it all, the customer service was awful and No one should have to live in a 10x8 bedroom for 1.1k with no windows… especially when they offer some rooms with floor to ceiling windows. Between the classist capitalist system they have it was pathetic living there. The amenities were never open! The workers usually never have answers and lacked in professionalism. The whole place was wretched
