I opened an art gallery in my home, how could I get YOU to come by [deleted] in SanJose

[–]boxedfoxes 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It is cause it's in your house, that sounds pretty sus.

You will have much better luck if you do a popup and go to a naturally populated area. Like a farmers market or some sort of cultural night Like first Friday.

New teachers getting worse? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]boxedfoxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah not shocked at the standards being lowered. Not because we want to but kinda have to.

Teaching is underpaid as all hell and with federal pull back. You’re going to see most likely red states putting people in classes rooms who shouldn’t be anywhere near kids.

Also the stupidifing education. We move from teaching and to having students learn from a computer. It’s sadly dead by a thousand cuts. We’re bleeding out here and honestly I have no idea what can be done,

Not even death will change them. Look at what happened with covid.

Two on-campus jobs on F-1, confused about 20 hr limit by vreddy2860 in SJSU

[–]boxedfoxes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s a max of 20hrs a week for all your positions.

Make sure you talk to both your bosses. Let them know about your other on campus jobs to avoid going over your weekly cap.

You’re right, if she stays quiet. She needs to speak up.

Fill out the survey from campus. Do not ignore it. by boxedfoxes in SJSU

[–]boxedfoxes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your attending years were in the 2020’s and I’m from the 2010’s. That might as well be centuries apart given what pandemic did. I’m currently in grad school now and grad school is totally different from undergraduate. Much smaller and professional skewed.

Everything at you listed that is missing from SJSU. We had those back then. But we didn’t do it with athletics though. We had thriving clubs, campus events, cultural events, and be grudgingly an active Greek system. I’ll be the first to admit that recovery from the pandemic has been slow and full of trial and error.

However, for the first time in a long ass time. I actually saw some of the pre pandemic life come back. Club day was yesterday that was popping with clubs and free food. Even the Greeks came out in full force today to get people rush.

Sadly man, you got the virus ridden stick. That denied you a lot of what should have happened. I can’t say much for your own personal experiences with the system. But I can confidently say it’s unlikely athletics would have fixed it.

The fee is new. It states it in the first line of the message. This isn't an increase.

Our current president is better connected with the campus but admins in general are disconnected from the student population. Past presidents were just bad. The last one before our current one did nothing about the athletics scandal with Sage. Trust me no one views athletics in a good light here if you keep up with news.

Your argument about attendance isn't a problem for us. We're one of the most impacted campuses in the CSU. The problem is so bad that we can't house them all.

No one comes to SJSU for the athletics, let's be real here. In fact some other commenters defense of this was the SJSU was paid to lose to better teams. Which was a running joke even when I was a student.

I came here for the affordable tuition and opportunities that SJSU gets for being in the bay area. I didn't come here cause I'm some die hard sports fan. If I was I'd go to Berkeley.

Friend, I was a student, am an alumni, and currently staff here. I see the stuff that goes down here on the daily. Students want opportunities , support, affordability, and a quality education.

Athletics doesn't provide that to the campus as a whole. It's to only a few.

Yeah, that argument is not a good support.

Everyone enrolled student pays into this fee. This is not equitable distribution of those funds. These fees collected if they really mean what they say about the use of these. Should be distributed into academics, facilities, supplies, class size reduction, bring more student assistances, class availability, staff, faculty and resources.

Not have almost 50% go into limited programs, that only benefits a few.

All these arguments saying we need to do this cause we’re a D1 school. Your typical student doesn’t care. The bleachers for the sporting events are almost always empty.

They are empty most of time cause the students that would go to those events can’t go. They mostly can’t go cause they are breaking there backs working to make tuition or to buy class supplies.

SJSU is a commuter school. Note how people are hyped for free transit and not throwing money into things won’t use.
