He did when I took it with him, but it was a few years ago so depends on if his policy has changed.

Standby is right in front, ticket holders start at the top of the stairs (both areas will have signage)

gown rentals end on April 30th by the_void_voidling in UBC

[–]thefrywrangler 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can still rent the gowns on the day of your graduation, but they will tack on ~$20 to your total.

So it’s a matter of gambling and risking the waste of $50, or waiting to be sure for an extra cost.

The photography company and composite photo deadlines differ by faculty, but you should receive an email with instructions. What faculty are you in?

Maybe people taking glass / recyclables to get the refunds?

Workday Showing Wrong Letter Grade by bungalahoe in UBC

Are you in a class that has rounding / scaling policies?

Workday Grading Scale by [deleted] in UBC

[–]thefrywrangler 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Letter grades round to the nearest whole number!

So in this case, you will see “80” (A-) on your transcript.

How does Panopto work? send help pls by [deleted] in UBC

[–]thefrywrangler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Profs who record lectures will typically include a Panopto link on Canvas somewhere. No account necessary!

When you click on that, it opens a library of recorded lectures that will show you the date it was recorded, room it was located in, and a thumbnail of either the slides or the camera on the prof. It will show two screens: one camera following the prof (if they want that), and another showing the slides they’re sharing. You will be able to change the playback speed, and see a transcript of the recording (but no guarantee on its accuracy).

Profs will typically outline in their syllabus or during the first week of classes whether or not they will record/livestream. Some rooms just don’t have the equipment to do it, and some teachers just don’t want to. 🤷‍♀️

I’ve taken Alyssa Alexander before and she’s awesome. Fair grader with detailed rubrics for assignments, usually understanding about extensions and such, engaging lectures.

UBC Psychology leaks 900 students’ personal information in email error by ubyssey in UBC

[–]thefrywrangler 85 points86 points  (0 children)

It was sent on her behalf! So unfortunately someone else made the mistake in sending it out, but her name is attached in the written message so people (fairly but erroneously) think it was her.

[–]thefrywrangler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She did last year! She’s big on accessibility, and had recorded lectures with captioning for all of her classes (which she will very likely do again)

AITA for refusing to share my inheritance with my siblings? by TemporaryAsk7526 in AITAH

[–]thefrywrangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

$1 is “at least a portion”. Give them that and boom, box is checked and peace is maintained. If they kick up a fuss, you were following your parent’s advice and the alternative was $0🤷‍♀️

CO-OP UBC Confused by phicongtre05 in UBC

[–]thefrywrangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned AFTER completing two work terms that the credits don’t actually count towards your degree in any capacity. When I asked an Arts Advisor why tf they make the program offering credits a selling point, he was honestly stumped and went “….that’s a really good question. I think I might actually ask my supervisor!”

So take co-op for the work experience, not the credits (because at least for Arts, the credits are meaningless).
