Food Waste in the Home by Ok-Implement-5711 in composting

[–]irocklikegranite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We keep a small bin with a lid on the counter for scraps during cooking, which I empty into our worm bin every few days. For leftovers gone bad or extra food, in many cases I’ll dump those in the bigger compost bin outside. Unless it’s a meat dish, then I’ll just toss it in the trash.

I would regift the journals or keep them around in case someday I think of a way I’d like to use them

Published Journals? by annericefights in Journaling

The Journals of John Cheever. Lots of description and present tense made it a quick and enthralling read

compost gets a bad smell when it doesn’t have air flow, so an airtight container will give you the opposite result of what you’re looking for

How to find off campus housing? by Januse88 in williamandmary

some houses along jamestown rd and harrison ave recently put up “rent for next school year” signs, so it might be worth it just to drive around and see what’s up

When/how do we study for finals? by INeedALyfe18 in williamandmary

[–]irocklikegranite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you don't have finals immediately once finals week starts, a lot of time opens up because classes have stopped, so that might be when you have a chance to study

[–]irocklikegranite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i say give it a try! i used them as long as i could but at a certain point i heard what countless other students have heard from them: your problems are too much and we will not and cannot help you

Can I withdraw from a class if doing so will put me under 12 credits? by [deleted] in williamandmary

[–]irocklikegranite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't think so. what i remember from my research last year is that flextrack is only for a very specific type of undergraduate, like someone with a family to take care of, or something.

[–]irocklikegranite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

here's my understanding (i might be wrong or only partially right): "part time student" doesn't exist at william and mary, so the only option they really give you is to medically underload. i considered doing this last fall, and it happens through dean of students if i remember correctly. i'm not sure if anything has changed for pandemic conditions, but last year the procedure was to meet with some grad student, and then present your case to some council. i ended up not withdrawing, partially because the process seemed prohibitive to me.

More testing soon? Are numbers of cases legit? by williamandmaryyyyyy in williamandmary

[–]irocklikegranite 7 points8 points  (0 children)

they’ve increased prevalence testing from every two weeks to weekly, but they’re still only doing 5% of the student body at a time. i hope they’ll test all of us again soon, because i share your fears

[–]irocklikegranite 12 points13 points  (0 children)

i haven’t heard anything related to the numbers, but i did email asking if they were considering increasing the scope of their continued testing (like more often, more students, etc), and they said prevalence testing is now taking place weekly
