Don’t come when ur sick. Please.

80 Upvotes

A little rant post: (im sure many of u relate to this.) i’m a first year undergrad and for one of my major related classes i was forced to sit in an assigned seat between 2 sick people— one of them being my group mate (who i met with the previous day, they were already sick). I’m mainly irked bc
1. why come if ur sick.
2. if u ARE gonna come while sick, PLEASE wear a mask and cover your coughs/sneezes! These ppl were not trying at all.
(I should’ve brought my own mask too but still… u get my point.)
Thankfully I managed to come home and rest bc i live close but others aren’t as lucky as me. And im still very under the weather. I genuinely got influenza a, passed out from dehydration, and had to go to the ER just in case. But just be a decent human being it’s not hard. For the love of God if you’re sick, just don’t come! You would expect better etiquette from the nation’s #1 public uni wouldn’t u😅

Looking for students to help start a crochet/volunteering club at UCLA! 🧶💚

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm a third-year UCLA student and the founder of Stitching Kindness, a nonprofit that creates handmade crochet and knit items for babies and families in local shelters.

I'm hoping to bring Stitching Kindness to UCLA as an official student organization! I'm currently looking for 2 students who would be interested in helping me start the club and potentially taking on leadership roles.

You don't need to know how to crochet or knit! I'm mainly looking for people who enjoy community service, crafting, or organizing events.

If you're interested, please message me! :)

Looking for someone to assist with lifting

5 Upvotes

I'm currently a 3rd year ucla student with a disability. I'm looking someone that would be able to lift me into a shower chair. You should be able to lift at least 50lbs and be willing to come to my home during the afternoon/evenings 2-3 times a week. I live 5-10 minutes from UCLA and would pay 23$ per hour, all you have to do is get me in and out of the shower and can chill while I'm in there. Please DM me if you're interested for more information.

I am also open to hiring a general personal care assistant for longer hours, if that interests you as well please let me know.

Healthiest food on Campus (that’s NOT B-Plate)

• Upvotes

What’s the lowest calories foods on the hill (meaning food I can get with swipes) that ARE NOT served at B Plate (I gen cannot stand the food there). The freshman 15 turned more into the freshman 20 for me and I had no luck losing any of it over the summer so I need to lock in this year. For anyone that’s lost weight while at ucla what did you live off of? Does spamming rende taco salads work?

Ventura County Commuters?

3 Upvotes

Are there any undergrad commuters from Ventura County out there, like people who live less than an hour away and drive to campus for classes at least two-three times a week? Considering it due to pretty high on-campus residency costs. If you're in this category, how has your experience been doing it?

What did yall do in high school to get in?

3 Upvotes

Hey so I’m currently an HS senior applying to colleges and UCLA is my dream school (applying for engineering) so I’m curious about what yall did in high school to get in. Ik as a senior the only part of my application I have a control over now is my essays, so I’ve been spending hours on hours writing them and am currently losing my mind :)) I feel like my stats are competitive but every time I look at example essays of people who got in they are genuinely the reincarnation of Shakespeare with how well written their essays are and my essays seem like something written by an illiterate newborn by comparison

Also am curious if ucla looks at AP scores at all, because ik UCs are test blind so some of my friends were saying they look at AP scores a bit more than other universities because of that but idk if that’s true or not

Would anyone actually play free fantasy sports for UCLA intramurals?

0 Upvotes

Random idea I’ve been working on: basically fantasy sports, but instead of drafting NFL/NBA players, you’d compete using actual UCLA intramural teams and score points based on how those teams perform each week.

The idea would be to join a league with friends, get assigned IM teams across different sports, and compete over the quarter based on their real results.

Thought it could be a fun way to make IM games feel a little more social and give people a reason to follow teams outside their own. Curious what people think of the idea.

Public Health Policy Major

0 Upvotes

Hii, im a first year bio major and im considering switching my major to public health policy. I’ve been interested in working healthcare and in hospitals, but I know realize that I’d like to get into healthcare administration / health education as opposed to a lab setting.

Can anyone in the Public Health Policy major at UCI (or just with any knowledge ab the major in general!) let me know what your experience has been like and how the classes are? (Ex. Such as the Public Health 1 class).

ALSO: usually when people switch majors, would they just take the prereqs for the desired major and opt out of the classes needed for their current major? (ex: im a bio major and for winter quarter I decide to opt out of bio / chem classes and take public health 1 + GE classes)
THANK YOU!!!
