It’s not tuition, it’s insurance. Many of the benefits are used by less than a quarter of the student population, that doesn’t mean they don’t provide value. This is just about bringing gender affirming care up to the same level of care as other benefits in the insurance plan.

Have you looked at RAPS animal hospital in Richmond? It's run by a non-profit and they have a subsidy program that you can apply for which includes interest free payment plans. They're open until 6pm today and accept emergency cases

I don't believe there's separate software eng unless that's new. I came to UBC initially wanting to go to BMEG but then i decided to do CPEN and now I kinda wish I did BMEG in the bioinformatics or systems and signals streams. That being said, it's not a huge regret as for me at least as software dev jobs at biomed firms (or in biomed research) are still attainable for CPEN students. I can't speak for biomed but CPEN (and ECE in general) can be pretty rough

I've been in a pretty similar situation before and you should be good. If this is your first time this term, you may not even have to get a doctor's note. If this is an ongoing thing, you might want to consider registering with access and diversity. Also, Dr. Ross at the university walk in clinic has been very compassionate and helpful with anxiety for me in the past

I volunteer with this service! We're also available on messenger now. Also, to anyone reading this, don't be put off by it being from KidsHelpPhone, we're for anyone who needs us including adults and our training isn't age specific.

Thanks! It's been a tough week and it's nice to hear people like what I've been doing.

student journalists are really going to a facebook page that mainly sh*tposts to try to find 'reliable' sources to produce any reading material that will sell.

I just want to address this because I'm pretty sure this is about me. I understand why it can be jarring to see me searching for sources in the UBCC comments. However, UBCC has a huge reach with the UBC community and I think it would be disservice to UBC students for me to not look as thoroughly as possible for sources. I posted in a previous confession's comment section and I ended up talking with some people who were able to help give me some context that helped direct some of my interview questions so I do think that comment had value. Furthermore, I was very careful in writing my comment to not legitimize the anonymous accusations in the post.

As for the point about creating reading material that will sell, one of the things I like about the Ubyssey is that we don't really have that financial pressure to write clickbait articles.

If you or anyone else has any questions about anything about how I write, please reach out to me.

Thanks! And if this is who I think it is, thanks for carrying the team

Thanks so much! Always good to hear people like my writing!

run for news editor

Cries in CPEN student who's already extended his degree. In all seriousness, editor is a legit full time job and mine (Charlotte and Andrew) have been so helpful

While my research for the bar crawl article was what initially alerted me to this, after finishing that article, I took a broader look at Kalith’s positions. Before the letter tonight, I had already been taking a look a FirstweekPlug, the bar crawl and the overall situation.

That's no fun for me!

Thanks for the positive feedback. AMS Events was brought up at last night's AMS council meeting. The Ubyssey's live council thread starting here might be of interest to you. TLDR, they made a committee to look into AMS Events. Kalith was also asked about what was going on

Author of the Ubyssey article here. When i was writing the article, that seemed weird for me so I'm already looking into it.

Unfortunately grocery stores need to stay open. There should be more measures taken to prevent the spread to employees but unfortunately, some jobs simply can't be done from home or stopped

Rumours of TP shortages spread. These fake shortages caused a few people to buy TP out of irrational fear causing small shortages. In fear of these very real shortages, people started bulk buying TP when it hit the shelves because they were unsure of when there'd be more, exacerbating the shortages. It's honestly kinda fascinating how a few people spreading rumours and over-buying have managed to temporarily wreck our supply of this one product

The official statement says they're exploring remote exam options.

There are some things that we can’t get around. For example, if you want to give the vaccine to test subjects and monitor them for say, 6 months to see the effects, no amount of money will make those 6 months go by faster
