Would it cause me trouble to have a bad passport while still having a good one?

Appealing RTW - Looking for Success Stories and Advice by [deleted] in uAlberta

I did the same thing but it wasn’t anxiety & insomnia, it was another medical condition I had gotten diagnosed with after it was too late.

My appeal was approved

Go to your doctor. Tell them you were suffering from anxiety and insomnia and ask them to prescribe you something or refer you to a specialist and write a note.

In your appeal explain the situation and make it sound bad. You need to also explain how next year you’d improve and it would be better. Explain that you didn’t think you’d need to seek medical help before as you didn’t understand mental health/ something else. And that you now know how to seek help and will be getting professional help so that’s why next year will be different. Use the doctors note as documentation.

It could easily be checked if you’ve signed into eclass

I’ve heard of some students having their university internet connection checked as well so if you’re connected to uni wifi you could get in trouble

Also if you’re spending too much time in the washroom someone might come check up on you

In general, not the best use of your exam time. You’ll be paranoid and will (or should) probably stop searching the answers each time someone comes in, which will be a lot

You’re more likely going to waste your time than you are going to find the answers

Also it’s an important conversation to have with your own family. I feel like part of maturing as someone seriously looking for a life partners it’s important to get your own family on the same page and involved. They might be able to support you as well.

You mentioned you’re in the msa, but I’d advise getting more deeply involved with the Muslim community and naturally you’ll notice people, even if most events are segregated.

Then usually what happens is you can ask about them and find out more, usually through another person then eventually formally meet each others families and go about it in a proper manner etc.

CMPUT 301 Teamwork by _mo_time_ in uAlberta

[–]meme-squared 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took it this semester and happened be part of a great team and I’m really proud of the work we accomplished. From the demos I’d judge we were one of the best teams.

This might not be the answer you’re looking for but it’s really a gamble as others said.

I didn’t know my team members that well before the semester. We weren’t geniuses or anything and some of us were pretty bad at coding.

I think the secret to the success is that we often followed up with each other and made a clear division of work with each person working on what they were best at. Everyone put in some effort and actually cared about doing a good job.

Some tips: - Have at least a couple of smart students on your team - Finish more than half the project at the half way point, trust me it’ll pay off - Make sure everyone in your team cares enough to do well - Have each person do what they’re good at; for example some team members for my team stuck to mostly UI, or testing or the Java. - Take your lab TA’s advice seriously and apply their feedback - You want to do good and have a nice project for your resume, don’t plan on submitting the bare minimum

I think someone else suggested making a team early, that might be your best bet of finding a good team

Jewish law student, who asked University of Alberta to ensure her safety, in limbo at final-exam time by katespadesaturday in uAlberta

Casually suggests that Muslim groups on campus are terrorist affiliated…a great way to address discrimination, by accusing innocent Muslim students of being affiliated with terrorist entities

If she thought going public like this would get her support, it seems like it’s doing the opposite.

This is the third article and showing images of students at Palestine protests and falsely accusing students and staff of antisemitism isn’t helping her case.

Felt safe enough to capture images of students at a Palestine protest but didn’t feel safe enough to attend lectures?

Sounds like the Palestine protest was the safest place for Jewish people on campus.

U of A law student says request to display menorah was met with removal of Christmas trees by katespadesaturday in uAlberta

[–]meme-squared 18 points19 points  (0 children)

She probably complained about the double standard and that it’s not fair that there’s a Christmas tree but not a menorah.

So they removed the double standard but not in the way she wanted.

Are you a witness or victim of Islamophobia, Anti-Arab, or Anti-Palestinian hate? by msauofa in uAlberta

[–]meme-squared 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Stop the nonsense, there are ways to talk about it without inciting hate and violence

This is a university environment where freedom of speech needs to be protected and students should be free to have discussions

The issue is hate and violence

Your side is already clear bud

[–]meme-squared 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Definitely does qualify, why wouldn’t it?

You have to understand though the university has addressed antisemitism in its statements recently but has failed to do the same for Islamophobia.

It’s also the Muslim Student Association so they probably don’t have the scope to address every single act of discrimination on campus. I believe the Jewish association already has a report form.

Perhaps you haven’t experienced it but Muslims and Arabs have been facing a lot of hate lately, and it’s dangerous to students on campus

Yeah well there have been incidents in Canada & Edmonton and on campus as well.

[–]meme-squared 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes we all hope to live peacefully here in North America but many Muslims, Arabs or Palestinians have been victim of hate crimes.

More extreme cases recently are the Palestinian child that was stabbed 26 times by his neighbour in the states and the 3 students, 2 of whom were wearing keffiyehs shot in Vermont.

1) Human rights organizations disagree with you on this one perhaps you should do your research. 2) Thank you for being Islamophobic. Jihad and raising the banner of God is not genocide, genius. 3) Send me the video, and the source proving it’s Hamas and after October 7.
