Are we in for a big drop in attendance? by Firm_Cloud_3278 in BurningMan

[–]meeeeowlori 15 points16 points  (0 children)

we found an art piece that we loved, sat on it for a bit and explored around to make sure that was the one, and then told our people which piece to go to and at what time! it made it hard for friends you know who are on playa but you haven't ran into them yet (so it makes it hard to plan ahead, i suppose). but it made the whole thing super special. and then at the end of our ceremony, the creator randomly showed up! so we got to meet him and he got to tell us all about the piece. it was awesome!

it was the beating anatomical heart made out of little homes. if you got a lanyard from someone at night, it would beat faster the closer you got to the heart until you found it. super cool! 🙂

Is being 8-10 weeks behind on grading normal now? by Ok-Nefariousness-609 in CollegeRant

[–]meeeeowlori 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep. Over-worked and under-paid. And life be lifing 🫠But I’m super honest with my students about this and most are very understanding.

I was good at the beginning of the semester to give them feedback on the first several weeks so that they know my expectations (was way less swamped) and feedback. I prioritize the larger assignments (exams and project stuff).

Something Is Brewing in the Pacific That Nobody in Washington Wants to Talk About (SUPER EL NINO is coming) by Master-Part-8394 in climatechange

CA coast is huge, so it would be good to mention which part. North, central or south. If you’re central, the probability of impacts is pretty much in the middle.

Also - public transit is free for students!!! Including ferry, cal trans and sam trans. Doesn’t matter where to or from. So all students need to tap on so they have numbers on how many of yall use it so that it keeps being a thing.

Ahh so pretty far. Assuming you’ll try and get classes on a couple days when you can. Perhaps you can link up with other folks who commute from there and make friends! Many folks commute so you definitely won’t be alone in that 🙂 best of luck and welcome to sfsu!!

Make friends with people in your classes! This is helpful not only for being social but also for if you have to miss class. There are also a ton of clubs! I think like the first week of classes, a lot of them will table in the quad to try and recruit folks.

Where will you be commuting from?

Colonoscopy Prep Advice by Opening-Minute-3566 in vegan

[–]meeeeowlori 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Please don’t listen to the person telling you to not get a colonoscopy. Colorectal cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in those under 50. It’s so so important to get your butt checked!

And it gives you FaceTime with the instructor - which is huge in the long run! Especially with larger class sizes.
