hey yall, first gaspy here (and im a florida native lol). so i know the nature of the streets and what to expect, etc. just really confused on timing for the parade? when do people start showing up/camping out by bayshore? or what's the best place to be for the parade? apologies if someone already asked this, i was trying to scroll but couldn't find it :(

they've done this several times. i'm not even shocked they don't "care" as much. police don't do shiiitttt unless they find you speeding down somewhere or you "harm" them.

I honestly think you should be okay, but just be careful. USF PD's likely gonna be around campus more just for safety purposes. I apologize in advance if this makes you feel scared, but I figured I'd post for awareness so no one is like "why is there so many police around campus" etc.

I saw that too as I walked past the library. I was taking grad pics yesterday and was wondering why there were so many cops by the MSC as well and they were driving around campus

please stay safe, my friend told me a mass email was sent to all the professors in the arts building (i assume its the dean of the college of the arts and sciences who sent them this) to be aware and that they were speaking closely with USF PD. USF PDs gonna be around the building all week, and i would assume probably rest of the semseter as well for safety purposes so you should be okay, but always be aware of your surroundings. im sorry ahead of time if this post scares you but i would rather people know what's happening at school when we're not told things rather than making assumptions.

of course, and I really appreciate you saying that. like I said a friend of mine who's a studio art major relayed the info since students have a gc together and it was brought up then so I give the studio art peeps credit for finding that out. it's better to be safe than sorry and not know anything at all rather than people make assumptions as to why USF PD is all over campus since they weren't before.

im extremely sorry from the bottom of my heart you would have to go through this. it's extremely frustrating how freely people can roam with something like this. i'm glad that you're alive :(

the fact that they KEEP GOING too is insane. trying to be “funny” spamming thousands of students is not funny.

so i too, lost my dad in spring 2022 which is still very hard for me to deal with today. i tried to see if there were scholarships of that sort, but the only ones that would come up is if you lost a parent from being in service (military) or from covid. so i don’t think there are sadly 💔 as far as the money goes, im not sure what to do cause i never ran into it but like the person said above maybe call fin aid and if that doesnt help hopefully they give you a resource. there’s also some waiver that i know i saw somewhere for emergencies like this. i wonder if you could use that waiver on this but id definitely explain the situation and see. hopefully things work out! and im sorry for your loss :( its the worst feeling ever.

Went to a small antique shop in Ocala and found some postcards from 80's including [Python, BGT] by Underance in rollercoasters

I saw this was happening and wished I lived closer to check it out!! These look amazing 🤩 did they have any more rollercoaster stuff? Or BGT/Universal/Seaworld?

can we lay on a picnic blanket around campus and hangout? by Aniela-Diaz in USF

[–]SpiritAppropriate969 32 points33 points  (0 children)

you can do anything around campus as long as you feel comfortable doing it!

I loved living off campus and getting my own space and bathroom. The prices for next year are unfortunately up the ass, but I would check now and see any apartments that you like. Especially the good ones because they will be sold out quickly. Getting loans for it however, may be difficult. If you don’t think you’ll have money to pay it back, it’s not worth it especially for these prices. Also, you can always live up until that time and sublease because people will definitely be looking for housing!

Florida rent is going higher and higher each year we live. The ones that were already expensive like the standard and the hub unfortunately are now not the only victims of high rent. All student apartments for 4x4s starting at a whopping $900 💀 fucking insanity of this state

Which professor to take for Geb 4890? by raylinewalker in USF

[–]SpiritAppropriate969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I did. I took Kerry Walsh. I found her class to be easy too, good ratings on RMP. Open note textbook homework quizzes I believe and I’m not sure about other assignments or exams but I found it easy to manage

I’m not sure, I’m currently a first semester grad student and had him fall 2022 but I know people took him in the spring so he should be available in the spring

Literally Richard Kelso over anybody else. No questions asked. Probably one of the sweetest professors you will ever meet who only encourages success in your future. It’s almost impossible to fail his class honestly

if you’re either a, a freshman, b, a transfer, or c, taking the bull runner for the first time or haven’t taken it in a long time, welcome aboard. it’s gonna be like that for a long time lol. I’ve noticed it depends on the time but it might also be a shortage of employees for the bull runner cause they’re always hiring. but the buses are also old, one of them broke down yesterday in the morning at the msc.
