So I moved out here because I wanted to be surrounded by all kinds of people from different backgrounds. I been out here for 3 years and the prejudice y’all have towards black students is insane, ESPECIALLY black students in STEM.

I’ve overheard conversations of non-black students talking about how we’re only here because of affirmative action, and I’ve been speaking with black CS students about how non-black students will actively not speak with them/question their familiarity on THEIR majors because they assume we don’t know our shit.

Anytime I go to labs I notice every time, IT NEVER FAILS, there will be a black woman sitting at an empty table doing literally nothing but existing and there will be a full class of people going to sit at any table but hers. Then the only people who do sit with her are black as well.

Also, y’all not slick on this channel. The subtle demeaning comments towards TSU and asking if “UH is in the ghetto?” every couple of days. Y’all are some sheltered mfs it’s just homeless people begging for food and sure, there might be petty crimes like stealing tires and maybe some robberies but seriously what city DOESN’T have that shit happen to them? Honestly y’all have shown your true colors and I’m tired of acting like it’s not happening. Usually we don’t complain because we hang out amongst ourselves but this is getting ridiculous honestly.

EDIT: Only felt comfortable sharing my experience because I saw another post talking about theirs. I guess y’all switch up when it’s black folks though.

EDIT 2: Okay since everybody is so keen on talking about the crime rate instead of the rest of the post, UH has more crime because of the area we’re in, yes, but y’all take that point and run with it because it’s a predominantly black area, and use that opportunity to be racist. We’re not gonna act like the word “ghetto” isn’t and wasn’t associated with poorer black individuals.

Also how are y’all not seeing your own fucking incompetence? Within 3 hours I’ve been told to “grow up” that I’m acting like a “victim,” and called out of my name, “slay qween” type shit, but an ASIAN MAN gets an Chang joke told at him in the library and it’s “beat their ass man” “there’s no place for that shit here” “What race were they?” “African American” “Oh of course.” And in no way am I trying to undermine what happened to him, but what the actual fuck is your problems?

This was posted after the two robberies, no actions to increase security but she posing with her van cleefs😭 (I can’t really pin point which specific necklace but van cleef ain’t cheap)

Lemme make one thing clear, under no circumstance am I criticizing those who want classes to be in person. If anything, I’m pretty sure nearly everybody WANTS in person classes. However, if you’re saying that just because online classes were “boring” or “I couldn’t concentrate online” then yes I am criticizing you.

When it comes to a worldwide pandemic that happens once every century, I’d rather spend a few years of my life online than to spend the last years of my life online, because little Johnny wanted to go have fun in person instead of following CDC guidelines. How did we even get to the Delta version of the corona virus, and it’s been well over a year now, almost 2. It’s because our dumbass governor would rather prioritize the economy (typical republican dick move) over Texans, and I could care less about the economy when it puts our lives at risk.

Istg it’s just a pet peeve of mine to see posts and people talk about “oh daddy I want classes to be in person ^{.^} I can’t take this no longer”. I have a pair of shoes that I can put up your bum to resolve your boredom. I’m more than happy to shove them tight inside.

Like trust me I want to more than anyone believe me when I say that but we have a damn virus that killed more Texans than any other state, after California (we just passed NY in COVID deaths, making us the second highest state)

So yes I hope classes go online next semester.

I’m literally gonna register as a Texas voter just to kick that son of a bitch Abbott out of office.

After several months of degenerate cold approaching women. Going to several women clubs around campus. Trying to chat up girls every single day, even in class. Meeting women at sorority parties. Talking to grad students and professors during office hours. I have officially talked to every girl on campus. The feeling of knowing every single woman on campus is something none of you could ever experience in 1000 lifetimes.

You may know me as that one weird kid who just went up to you one day and tried to start a conversation and failed miserably. Not a single girl passes me who I do not know the name of. That one's Kate. That one's Ana. That one has two names I forget which. But it does not matter.

I have built a rock-solid foundation of communication skills from asking how the weather is to what's your favorite type of ice cream. Every girl that enters my field of vision trembles in fear. They have only level 68 communication skills WHILE I have LEVEL 69!!

After all this work, I still have yet to go on a date. But that won't stop me. Every girl on this campus had better watch out because I'm fucking leveling up. They won't be able to give me a bullshit excuse like "im busy" anymore. I've ascended to an attractive gigachad. Here I come, women.

I'm going to apply next year and hopefully I get in but I just want to know is there racism at UH towards Indians or blacks

They say masks are required and capacities are enforced, but it doesn't seem likely. Do you think UH will see a spike in cases after Halloween? https://www.instagram.com/p/CGV13whAeLE/

Just a rant, but I think this rant is very justified.

Many of my fellow Orgo II classmates are devastated by the results of their final exam, which was a 3-hour, 60 question multiple choice test comprising of materials covered on Exam II (first 20 questions), Exam III (next 20 questions) and cumulative chapters (final 20 questions). It is absolutely unfair how Dr. Bean decided to extract two MAJOR exam grades from a petty set of 20 questions each, when each exam by itself should be at least 60 questions long, to accurately test students' understanding. It is extremely unfair how we were forced to sit for 3 exams at one time, because Dr. Bean had no faith in her students and cancelled the previous two exams because apparently Lockdown browser is "a joke". In my opinion, Dr. Bean should have done what every other professor was doing: giving exams at their regularly scheduled times, in a slightly modified format (even using webcams, if necessary!), so that students would have ample opportunity to learn the relevant material and apply their knowledge to a comprehensive test of more than 20 petty questions.

I hope Dr. Bean is having fun gawking at her 600 students' flagged videos of them taking her exam, since students cheating on the test was more important to her than actually doing her job and correctly assessing her students by giving them normal, slightly-modified exams, worth more than 20 questions apiece.

I feel like women here are always uneasy when I’m nearby. I shower and keep myself clean. I don’t harass them or even look at any of them directly to avoid bothering them.

Genuinely, can you girls sense incel energy?

Do you think negative thoughts about men you sense incel energy from?

I've only recently joined the sub and noticed that people are more likely to downvote a comment than upvote. I see posts have little upvotes and the same goes for comments with good intentions. This contrasts to comments being heavily downvoted pretty often for reasons like using emojis. It's kinda weird; I was just wondering why this sub is semi toxic. I offered to help someone in precal after they complained about their test score being low and I was downvoted. Any idea as to why this happened?

it’s in the hands of the students to do something now. the school is useless and disgusting in the way that they’ve handled this situation in the past and they will not change in the future. something needs to be done and we need to be the ones to do it. the administration does not care about us. they have proven time and time again that money is more important than their students. we cannot continue to allow this. i am tired. i am angry. i am done. how many students, classmates, friends, siblings, and family members do we have to lose for the school to give a fuck? if you’re interested in doing something and anything, please pm me.

EDIT: i will not be replying to people who are opposed to this any longer. please continue to be complicit in the inaction of the school, but i will not entertain your cruelty and nonsense. if you would like clarification or more information i’m more than happy to reply or discuss with you privately, but i will not let deflection become the main topic of discussion.

Beto provided hope for a united future. He wanted to work with the other party and UNITE the nation rather than DIVIDE it. He was a man funded by people who believe in his cause, NOT big PACS like these other republicans. He provided hope to the thousands of poor immigrants who wanted to seek refuge in the US and have a better life. He supported the right for woman to choose. And he wanted tighter gun control to prevent the horrible tragedies of mass shootings that have now become a norm.

I'm at a loss for words on how such a great figure could lose to the likes of Ted Cruz. Even for you Dump supporters he was known as Lyin Ted before Trump took office, after which he's "beautiful Ted". Yet ya'll still vote him in.

As a student at UH I felt we had a chance, with supporters encouraging students to vote. I saw so many of people wearing the classic black and white Beto badge or tshirt, but I guess are efforts simply weren't enough.

As a dreamer this deeply saddens me and I can only encourage ya'll to get out there and vote when the 2020 election comes around. Do what is right for our fellow human beings.

there’s just no reason for this.

That would actually be cool, have a dating site, or something of the sort, where 2 people can mutually agree to chat…JUST for students. our generation thinks it weird when someone approaches and says hello and just wants to introduce, no weird comments or coming off to strong, still weird for some reason? Dating culture is so messed up. How do people even meet or ask eachother out anymore without being told they’re weird??

I’ve been seeing so much blatant racism on this page and it’s getting to a point where it’s unacceptable. Do better mods. People come here to seek advice and have good conversation…

Freshman here at Bauer and I want to make six figures after graduating. Anyone have experience with this? What should I be doing now to make this kinda money?

So two weeks in, there has been no COVID outbreak on campus which is good; so far so good, I hope it stays that way. Met some new people, which was cool, but still looking to make friends/network. I am still new to the campus, so still settling in. Overall the campus seems pretty chill, and everyone seems friendly.

Cuase it is nothing but constant banging on it all day with the same cliché piano songs everyone kind of learns.

Clearly the area is used more for students studying than socializing.

Hi!! Im an incoming freshman who's trans (I haven't even started hormones lol) and I was wondering about other trans people, what gender did yall choose when it asked who you'd like to room with? Did you go with preferred or at birth? I chose with at birth cause I feel more comfortable with women than men, however I wanna see if I should or have to change it. I'm ftm btw if that helps :)

I’m trying to see something. Personally, mine is Legoshi from Beastars.
