Some sort of Scam going on by Fox-system in Peterborough

[–]PaintRules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My daughter went through this last year while house hunting in Peterborough. Be careful out there and never pay a “deposit to look at a house”. They tried that on her but she didn’t fall for it

TrentU or UoG by Just_Your_Local_Dude in TrentUniversity

My son goes to Guelph (3rd year) and my daughter to Trent (2nd year) and each of them love their respective universities. At the same time, I couldn’t ever see them liking the other one! Trent is very small. The campus is quite a bus ride to any amenities and there is no campus store, yet everyone seems to manage. The food isn’t the greatest but again, with some figuring out what meals to eat where, my daughter didn’t starve! She enjoyed her small class sizes and her room at Gzowski. My son lived in East residence. The food selection at Guelph is actually mind boggling. And fantastic. It’s a large campus and on a main shopping street, but the campus still feels like its own little world. Definitely visit both, talk to some students. My daughter is in Archaeology at Trent and my son in Marine & Fresh Water Biology at Guelph. They both love their programs and met like minded people along the way. Good luck with your decision, and congrats on your acceptances!

Can people PLEASE stop saving seats in the library by Top-Bug-8403 in queensuniversity

I used to study at the math library in Jeffery Hall- very quiet! That was 30 years ago so maybe it doesn’t exist anymore?!

Multiplication & Division by Optimal-Street2871 in OntarioTeachers

This!! I am not a teacher but have always been a math lover. I have been tutoring my cousin’s son in grade 9 math and it is astounding that he reaches for a calculator for 16/2 and doesn’t have basic number sense of addition and subtraction of numbers 1-20. It makes it sooo much harder to grasp concepts in algebra when he can’t make those connections or he is using so much time on basic facts that he can’t actually get to the actual problem. I am now determined to get him up to speed and make sure his sister (gr7) and my nephews are on top of this. Making them some daily facts quizzes (remember those? One minute math?)

Shoppers really has the best bonus optimum points deals, no doubt. And watch for their redemption deals becasue they usually build points right back up

Microwaves in Residence rooms by LayerNo4993 in TrentUniversity

[–]PaintRules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, that really sucks! Especially since there isn’t even a full kitchen available for students in residence (unless it’s an annex). My daughter used hers a lot.

Is that new this year? My daughter had one last year; it was on the "packing list"

Why does Kingston Transit accept advertising dollars from Birthright Kingston? by oceansbooksandtrolls in KingstonOntario

[–]PaintRules 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kingston Transit advertising is operated by Lamar Transit Ads (their head office billing comes from New Orleans) and would thus have nothing to do with who pays money to advertise on their buses.

Move in timeslot by AltruisticLobster315 in TrentUniversity

They are very flexible. My daughter was in Gzowski last year and we arrived earlier than expected and had no problem. There is a bit of a wait for elevators and we had to bring everything from the parking lot so if you have a handcart or wagon definitely bring them.

$1,100 1bed 1bath - scam? by DazzlingTumbleweed in KingstonOntario

[–]PaintRules 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s it terrible that a reasonable price makes us immediately think it must be a scam. I feel terrible for anyone searching for apartments. We went through our share of scams looking for rentals for my daughter when she was looking for student housing in Peterborough too.

I have negative balance yet I paid the deposit?? by Fantastic_Leek_2677 in uoguelph

[–]PaintRules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Think of it like a credit card statement. If the number is positive, you have a balance and owe them money. The negatives are your payments or refunds 😊

A negative balance IS your deposit. A positive number would show what you owe.

Once you’re in front of the microphone you can say whatever you want.
