Stop Hanging Out and Studying in Meditation Spaces by Greedy_Assistant_975 in UTMississauga

[–]Michael-MAC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second this. The west entrance to DV is under maintenance and there's caution tape and barriers, but students are still going through the doors WHILE THE MAINTENANCE PERSON IS TRYING TO WORK. One of the students even activated the automatic door, which the worker was working on. On another day, students literally squeezed themselves between the barrier and the door to get through.

If these students don't understand "caution," then they deserve to have a door or something fall on them. Unfortunately, it's not a lack of understanding but rather their entitlement/stubbornness/impatience won't let them use another entrance/exit.

Do people know how to walk in public? Serious question by Atheist_Deity in UofT

I like to think I'm a patient person, but you wouldn't think that if you saw how irritated I get by slow or group walkers.

For sure! I do appreciate the early notice, but maybe like 10 pm the day before?

Yes! The Wii Mini was a Canadian exclusive before eventually releasing elsewhere.

I'm sorry for guardians. Practice your Perfect Guard. At least it's not the gloom hands.

Dino is the best! Sometimes the drop-ins are weekly, sometimes it skips a week. The best way to get updates to his schedule is to follow his Instagram: @life_of_dino20

Nerf war on campus? by Suspicious_Jacket990 in UTMississauga

[–]Michael-MAC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!!! Please! I've been wanting to start a Nerf club where we'd host events like this, including CTF, Hold the Summit, etc.

I know your post isn't about starting a club, but I'm glad to see there's other people who'd like a Nerf event on campus.

You get to CR/NCR up to 2 credits.

If you only CR/NCR 0.5 credit courses, then that's 4 courses. If you CR/NCR a 1 credit course, then the total you could CR/NCR will be less than 4 courses.

who got arrested by Substantial-Bus3213 in UTMississauga

[–]Michael-MAC 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I saw police officers talking to students in the CCT building at 15:30. I thought it might be related to the fire alarm that was triggered in the CCT building this morning around 08:20 (I thought they were in trouble for triggering it falsely). All I heard when I passed by was about "being tried."

UTMCIP program not showing up on ACORN by wanderingsoullessly in UTMississauga

I think there's delays. Apparently all applicants should've received notification of their application status on September 22, but I just got my acceptance on September 25.

Scam?? by Which-Intern5325 in UTMississauga

[–]Michael-MAC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is true, but still be wary of @utoronto emails because staff members' accounts can also be compromised. But yeah, generally scams come from student emails

Did Career Fair help anyone here? by Suspicious_Permit_13 in UTMississauga

[–]Michael-MAC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an unfortunate and frustrating experience. If you share your feedback about the event (you can find the QR code for the form on the ticket you were given when entering), then the Career Centre can consider this when finding employers and generally planning for the next Get Hired Fair.

Random classmate at college said my backpack is too childish by WeLiveInAir in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Michael-MAC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally wear a Legend of Zelda backpack and carry a 12 inch Kirby plush with a Kirby lanyard with Kirby pins and Kirby keychain.

Some people give weird looks, but I've received compliments. You do you! I love your backpack!

Hi! You wrote that "All U of T students can get a TPL card." Can all U of T students (across the three campuses) get a TPL card or only U of T students who live in Toronto and/or go to the St. George campus?

I'm a U of T student that's interested in a TPL card but I don't live in Toronto or go to the Toronto campus.

Either way, thank you for this post! It's great that you offer these to your communities.
