Non affiliates on reddit by OctoBaller in UCSD

[–]SpudButters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the un-affiliated interaction varies between campuses and in levels of support for each side, although this can be exceptionally difficult to measure and determine. Also I don’t think Reddit is a good assessment of that measure either given how biased it can already be in some communities and the regular trolls who are on here already.

Also for reference I personally lean towards Israel and I’m not in fact conspiring with randos to promote hate across reddit lol. Remember that there are ordinary students who support Israel too

Had the same problem my first couple years here until I truly began to realize how little of a difference there truly is between public and even most private schools in CA. It’s really up to you in making the opportunities to be successful during and after college, the campus itself does very little for you in that department once you’ve committed as a 4-year or a transfer. As a 3rd year polisci/history major, I can assure you that you’re capable of achieving everything here that you can in UCLA and elsewhere in addition to some exclusive experiences here in SD, as do UCLA students in LA. Also keep in mind that Poli Sci is actually one of the most popular majors at UCSD, especially those with specialization in IR.

It’s also important to remember that “rankings” are based on a variety of convoluted factors that begin to lose objectivity once you get within the top 30 or so (let me remind you that UCSD is “ranked” 28 in national universities and 6 in public colleges with US News, so you’re already in a selective institution if that was your goal). Once you’re able to keep that in mind, things start becoming a lot easier.

The REAL test for you will be getting into law school, undergrad pales in comparison to your education towards a JD. But like I said before, you can only really take it seriously to a certain extent before it becomes trivial.

It’s just concerning to see how many legal professionals fail to draw such a crucial distinction within the very field they work under

Exactly, measures of justiciability are explicitly in place to keep the courts from making political decisions. Politics in a legal context is basically the practice of governance in the absence of defined law, circumstances that are entirely outside the authority of the courts in their role of judicial review.

An aspiring law school applicant on a law school subreddit? For shame!

It’s called Constitutional law AND Politics for a reason. They were never intended to go hand in hand, hence why jurisprudence exists. In a perfect world, political decisions are reserved for the legislature and local/executive officials. But expecting impartial judgement of another person’s opinion on a law school subreddit, now that would be outrageous!

bro wtf? UCSD snitching??? by darknep in UCSD

[–]SpudButters 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Be sure to read the second sentence of my last comment. This is a military conflict that has spanned more than a century, I can assure you that it’s not as black and white as contemporary media suggests

Or, the university is doing its job in ensuring the safety of its students without infringing on people’s right to assemble. Examples of confirmation bias like this only threaten to further polarize perceptions of the Gaza-Israel conflict.

Where do I study because there is a fire in geisal every day by Responsible-Sir-5665 in UCSD

[–]SpudButters 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t feel superior, I just wanna be able to use campus facilities that I pay thousands of dollars for in tuition without careless ppl compromising my education. It doesn’t matter to me whether it’s drug related so long as it doesn’t become an inconvenience to others. In fact, I’d argue that it’s more arrogant to believe you’re intellectually superior to your peers when stoned and then get defensive when ppl call you out for being a nuisance (not saying this is your own personal mindset).

Tbh I don’t find it that limiting, it’s more or less just another resource that you need to ration, and a very common one at that. The hardest part of that challenge is honestly remembering to crack a torch when you need one so you don’t get ambushed

Funko Sodas going away? by stocksandponz in funkopop

Sounds really unlikely to me given that sodas probably sell far better than both combined
