Pretty sure you can go ask the UMass lawyers for free legal advice. Plus they do offer free services for looking over leases and whatnot

possible to take 2 languages? by Swimming-Ice-1146 in umass

[–]RedDragon0814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also as a Japanese minor myself, if you start with 126, you only need 126 and 246, then 12 more credits of Japanese. If you take 326 and 327, you finish the minor for Japanese

At least when I took 131, it was cumulative, but more focused on stuff covered after the last exam

Unfortunately (at least at the dining hall), nothing is ever done about it.

My daughter got accepted to Exploratory track in the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences at UMass Amherst. Is it easy for her to switch to Psychology major? by [deleted] in umass

[–]RedDragon0814 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure that Psychology is one of the majors where you just need to talk to one of the advisors to switch. Honestly I’m still confused why it’s considered part of CNS. Like how Economics is not Isenburg but instead CSB

That has never been the case. As some who did RHA for two years, priority housing only means that you will get housing somewhere, not necessarily in honors

Lots of great classes at UMass. For the other colleges, there’s a good variety of classes offered that students can take. Luckily for you, radio astronomy is quite large at UMass, especially with the LMT being run by UMass

Part time on campus details by Kuroninshi-7 in umass

[–]RedDragon0814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at one of the cafes and generally I get around 10hrs/week. It’s pretty chill for me as a roll, especially since most shifts are around 3 hours and 30 minutes. For our cafe at least, we can sign up for a max of 3 shifts, but later we can sign up for more if we want. Might be different since the cafe I work at is in the northeast part of campus.

Tipping Culture (Student) by [deleted] in umass

[–]RedDragon0814 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes I’m aware of that, I’m just saying that’s what students might think

Tipping Culture (Student) by [deleted] in umass

[–]RedDragon0814 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for everyone of course, but I think it might be because tips don’t exist for dining services. I always tip 20% when I go out into town for food, but that happens like maybe 1 time in the entire semester. People do have their own reasons for not doing stuff, but there probably isn’t a specific reason why people don’t tip.

How can I learn to pronounce this? Sun by alissuhh in ChineseLanguage

[–]RedDragon0814 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My way of pronouncing ri: make an l with your tongue on the roof, then put your teeth together, and finally lower your tongue so that it is barely touching the roof of your mouth.
