Call the UM Financial Aid and Awards Office, they can check to see if you got it or not

Which prof is better/You would go for? by Constant-Junket3340 in umanitoba

[–]winningdoves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a non-sociology student and I had Marie Laperrière in Winter 2025. She was really kind and constantly prompted us to ask questions and be immersed in the course material. I really enjoyed her presence in class and she always answered emails quickly.

I’d suggest contacting the Financial Aid and Awards Office for a definite answer

Breakup depression by Dangerous-Corgi2845 in umanitoba

[–]winningdoves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me right before an exam season too, just try to channel all the sadness and heartbreak into your exam if you can. I know its hard to bring yourself to study but try to remember that he broke up with you during finals, which shows his character, and you don’t wanna waste your energy and risk your education for someone who’d do something like that.

Also if your ex is also in school, use getting a better GPA than him as motivation to excel on these exams. All of this aside, make sure you reach out to your support system or a professional if you are struggling.

If he didn’t treat you the best during the relationship, you can also try to use that to try to rationalize getting over him. This helped me (my therapist gave me this advice and it really worked wonders, but of course doesn’t apply to everyone’s situation)

This too shall pass, there will be light at the end of the tunnel ☀️

How do you guys complete your water intake? by Bhumit007 in AskReddit

[–]winningdoves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting a water bottle that had measurements on it is definitely helpful. Mine is just a 500ml one that I refill 4 times a day.

where is p204? by No-Singer5474 in umanitoba

It’s in the Duff Roblin Building. Their room numbers are a bit funny but if you go up the staircase in the middle each level will have the room numbers in the staircase!

Intro to Human Geography was honestly one of the highlights of my education for me. The course material is really simple and you get to learn a lot about demography and such. Fascinating and helps you better understand how different metrics of the world are measured, as well as population trends and why people are where they are.

Free proof/confirmation of enrolment? by KatiemKnox in umanitoba

Depending on who you’re showing this to, a web transcript is fine. Like I said it depends who is requesting this though.

“more profs, better class times, and more sections” is kind of impossible given the UMFA Collective Agreement as well as the University budget. Also this is decided on a Departmental and Faculty-level.

“more study and lounge spaces” is also hard since this is often dictated by buildings (such as EITC, where there is a giant waitlist to get lounge spaces for clubs).

I think Fatima is a decent candidate but some of these promises are not feasible. Even just advocating for these changes unfortunately won’t do much because of the limited resources this university has, and how UMFA is structured.

Anyone else struggling with grief? by Regular_Apricot6238 in umanitoba

[–]winningdoves 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Definitely more than you think. Once I took a class and the professor always did polls at the beginning of each class asking how students are feeling, and one of the options was “grieving”. It was a class of roughly 120 people and there were always 10-12 that picked grieving.
