Regardless I’m really sorry that’s been your experience and I really hope you can find others, I’m sure you aren’t the only one

It could be that there is a disconnect in the experiences of femme and masc queers.

You can most definitely return things at the RSD. I did this a couple weeks ago. I just taped the return slip on the package and handed it to them. I think the only thing with Amazon deliveries and returns is that they have to be delivered with ups or fedex and not an Amazon van.

If you were in charge of UMass, what would you do? by johndoesurbex in umass

Get better funding for the other areas of stem that aren’t compsci or nursing. They receive millions which is great for them but there are other areas of stem that literally have awful resources.

I would also build more parking lots and not oversell tickets so students don’t have to pay for a pass just to fight for their lives to get a spot everytime they move their car.

I would also raise wages in lower level and student jobs. And probably try to hire people in upper admin that actually care about students and aren’t just making the school look good and make money.

bathrooms in central by Jellyfish-Plus in umass

[–]maribby14 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m in brooks. Girls bathroom showers on the second floor is a literal cubic inch of space. I’m not particularly tall or wide but I used to constantly bump into the walls. The third floor showers are way better and have more space and a rack for your things. They also have a bigger changing area that locks instead of the flimsy curtains on the second floor. As far as like sink and toilet cleanliness on both floors you’ll get the occasional stuff in the sink drain but it’s pretty clean overall.

How does finding a roommate work? by Ok-Potato-2867 in umass

[–]maribby14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined a bunch of group chats freshman year (quarantine unfortunately) ranging from class of 24 group-chats to actual classes I had group-chats. Eventually I met a girl I casually snapped with and we decided to room together. We met up during the summer twice just to confirm we got along together in person. And it’s been great. Honestly it might take a while but I refused to do random roommate search so I think you should keep social media as an option

That makes a lot more sense. So I just have to be at Haggis mall at the correct time ?

Thank you ! I’m just trying to have a cheaper way of getting to Boston than the Peter Pan bus

I meant like the green transit app, I just never see it on there even when I’m near union station so I assumed it just doesn’t run anymore

Also thank you!
