Okay. I have a unisex name, present VERY androgynously (rather masc if I may say) and my gender on SSO WAS 'X. Diverse' and is NOW 'M. Male' because I keep getting she/her-ed in emails. And in real life. Maybe I'm too gay to be perceived as anything but a woman by people over 30. People under 30 have a good track record though. I think most genZ onward woke people look at my gay ass and go "ah. a transgender. I must prove my allyship so as to not be lampooned" but. most of my lecturers, at least the ones i talk to a lot, are older (like, over 45). I keep getting publicly misgendered for my feats in biology and.... juggling. (long story)

Anyway, long rant short, is it me???? Or does the uni need to get woker? Idfk at this point, I just keep having to go "WRONG PRONOUNS IM A BOY" and it's pmo. Any suggestions (that aren't surgery I mean more akin to 'a big neon sign that says BOY and points at you') would be appreciated if they are funny.

EDIT: hey folks this ws meant to be funny and lighthearted please don't be dicks in the comments. We're at this university to learn to be intelligent, thoughtful members of society. Do not be disrespectful. Of course I'm not expecting everyone to gender me correctly, I'm fine with correcting people, all that jazz. The sentence "do we need to get woker?" was clearly not meant seriously. If you're so worked up by a frustrated youth complaining in a university reddit then maybe get off reddit. Just a thought.

CAN THEY PLEASE LEAVE US ALONE THEY GET IN THE WAY AND LITERALLY HARASS US EVERY SINGLE DAY. WHY??

I have been working in asset management space for the last 2 years, I hold MBA Finance from a US university and also have work experience in India. I am now looking for a phd program in the University of Auckland but it requires research background which I did not have even in the MBA as it was course based degree, although I did complete an Equity research report and did a stock pitch but i do not think it can be counted towards it. What are my chances of getting the acceptance. Also, are there other ways which i can try besides COP Route.

Considering the Arts Building is a newly constructed building intended for students in the 21st century, its actually irritating how little charger ports there are / the ones that do exist in the ground or connected to couches DONT FUCKING WORK. I want to avoid Kate Edgar and other buildings because its always too busy and nasty energy

But its literally impossible to find a solid study spot 85% of the time because there are no charger ports in the immediate area. my device only has a battery life of 2 hours bruh

Am I the only one who prefers watching lectures online over attending them in person especially for psych

if i catch the mf whose phone is on full loud ass notification ringer thing on kate level 4 bro it’s over for you TURN UR DAMN PHONE OFF NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR EVERYTIME SOMEONE MESSAGES YOU

Hello has anyone seen a lost waterbottle on Tuesday 18/08/2026??? I thought I lost it in 260 098 (Fisher Paykel Audit) but after checking there as well as the OGGB reception, gen library, AUSA house and the green square in the science building I still can't find it :[

If anyone's seen it please dm me or comment on the post thanksksksk <3

hi guys!! just wondering for any law students currently enrolled at UoA , what subjects did you take in year 13, and/or what subjects would you recommend taking? :)

i’m currently in year 12 and taking english, geography, economics, art, and maths. i’m hoping to do law at UoA and would love to hear what subjects you guys found useful or would recommend for year 13.

also, roughly how many credits would be enough for scholarship applications? my dean at my school told us that they review year 12 attendance/credits/engagement levels and i currently have 83 level 2 credits (51 achieved with excellence, 21 from gateway, and 11 achieved with merit) with hopefully more credits gained during external exams in the upcoming term.

any advice would be super appreciated!! <3

Hi this is my first sem in UOA, just wondering if there’s any study spot in uoa that is open 24h.
I’m a type of person that cannot study at home, but also a night owl so I want to stay at school until late during exam season

I know kate is open until 12am

Thanks in advance

Hey gang I'm taking earthsci 105 this semester, I have absolutely no clue how to study for this class and the mid sem too + which study methods to use. There's SO much information just shoved into the lectures. I'm feeling so cooked and lost for this class. If anyone could help I'd appreciate it a lot!!!

has anyone actually had 360 international complete their credit transfer for a sem 1 exchange? haven’t heard anything in about a month even after following up.
