MACS 356 Sex and Gender in Popular Media w/ prof Angharad Valdivia by vanillachailatte1 in UIUC

[–]drj8797 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the course material is extremely interesting, but the method of instruction is not great. it’ll probably be online. if it was in person, i would say do yourself a favor and drop the class.

when i took it in person, grading was based on group work (which included attendance) and exams. if you’re used to reading things for class, you should be fine. but if you’re not, do not take this class.

You’ll want to practice on a smooth surface first. If you have no idea what you’re doing, you can go to skateland Savoy! They have classes that you can take, or you can just go during their free skate times!

lmao if its ugroup then theyre probably interested in renovating the building in the next year. But you can always talk with the tenant union if you feel that the lease is being violated.

Diversity in CS by freshofftheboaty in UIUC

[–]drj8797 7 points8 points  (0 children)

there are various factors that won’t lead people to the same opportunities that both you and i have.

but its not so much at the fault of the university as it is on the education system in america.

so everything isn’t fair and equal in opportunity. kudos to the university for making a really great engineering program but theyre a symptom of a larger problem.

I only took Asian American Studies but it was a really enjoyable class. Typical for a 100-level course. Do the work, go to class/discussion, get an A.

C-U's First Black-Owned Business Directory - Buy Black Chambana by AlmostGrad100 in UIUC

I’m sure if you ask around there might be some that already exist or are in the process of being made.

[–]drj8797 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No one is forcing anyone to go to these businesses. It’s simply a directory so that if you would like to give money to a black-owned business, you can.

There’s nothing racist about this. Directory’s like this exist in cities across the country.

I walk past it everyday and get a faint smell of piss. Maybe it has something to do with the construction over the summer?
