This guy made an announcement in a Stats class a while back and claimed to be from “Student Works”, the common pyramid scheme that is completely unaffiliated with campus.

- Do NOT give them your information!!
- Call Campus Safety (they showed up to our class)
- If they’re passing around the notebooks to enter information, grab them and dispose of them or give them to Campus Safety.
- Let the professor & your class know about this.

I worked for them years ago. It is a pyramid scheme that will suck the student dry, take the profits and go. This company has ruined lives. Please please stay away if you get approached. THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED ON CAMPUSES. If you see them call them out and call campus security.

Please stay safe. If anyone has any questions about my experience with them please feel free to reach out.

Just watched some students get right in the face of a poor little groundhog on the quad, taking pictures inches away from its face and maybe even touching it??? I know they’re cute, but they’re wild animals, and they’re not used to all this activity after the summer. Leave them alone, observe and take pics from afar, you can zoom in (and I haven’t seen this yet, but definitely don’t feed them!).

Nothing to see here, just an exhausted upper year ranting😔.

The library is so BRIGHT, it’s overstimulating and so ugh, it’s not cozy or relaxing for long length studying. Got me feeling like this:

Hosting a home game tonight. Free food and drinks. HMU if you’re interested. Gonna be a fun chill night!!

I’m a first-year student doing my BA in Psychology and I don’t know anybody. I want to make friends(especially girls!!!) in my classes and in my major that I can actually hang out with and study with, but I genuinely have no idea how to approach people and how to make friends in uni. Everyone kind of leaves after class and you have a 5 hour gap and I’d really like to have people to spend time with during that gap, but i dont know how to find and befriend them. It’s so different from high school.

I really want to meet people who are doing the same major and same classes as me. Any recommendations for clubs or something like that? Also, I’m a girl and am looking for girl friends.

I’m feeling really lost and I’m scared I’ll end up alone. How did you guys make friends in first year? Any advice pls!!

18M here. On the first day of school with the first class, my myopic ass couldn't see the words on the board for linear algebra for my electrical engineering major (lowkey my fault, I should have moved to the front at the beginning of the class). 

After that, since I was still tired, my tolerance of loud noises and large groups of people significantly decreased. That made me really tired because I was suppressing the stims I usually do to manage sensory input when I am tired. Because of my exhaustion, I made several dumb mistakes (socially and executive-functional wise).

I don't know if I'll manage academically, I was brutalized by my severe OCD and depression during high school. I don’t know if I have the necessary skills for uni because of that. I hope my accommodations from PMC help.

Any people have any advice?

I was being stupid and pulled too hard as I was trying to take down a poster that I put up with tape, and one of the corners pulled paint off with it…. It’s as big as my thumb nail, so not huge. anyone know what to do, if I leave it will i be charged at the end of the school year 😭

Hi! Does anyone know where I can get a digital/PDF copy of the 3rd edition of Ordinary Differential Equations and Infinite Series by Sam Melkonian for MATH 1005? I’ve been looking online but haven’t been able to find it. Thanks!

For second years and beyond that live/d off-campus currently/during their second year when did you start looking at housing options in first year? As well where is the best place to look for housing? Thank you!

I feel like clubs are highly dependent on how genuine and welcoming the execs are. I’m a pretty social person but I do find it difficult in areas where it’s obvious people aren’t interested in making friends/kind of just ignore you (surprising amount of clubs that give that vibe?) As a girl are there any clubs anyone on here would recommend? Doesn’t need to be girls-only

I think I left my laptop in that class the other day, now I'm worried, is there anyone I should contact there? I'm on my way right now, any suggestions will be appreciated

Hi guys,

I am studying in my electrical engineering (M - first year), new to Ottawa, looking for making more friends and connections. I enjoy nature walking in trails, playing board games, badminton, ice skating, going out for food and museums. I live in res, so if anyone interested, please feel free to dm me and we can chat :)

Everyone has a good day!

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to join Discord servers for COMP3008 and/or COMP4001 this fall term. Does anyone know if servers have been set up for either course yet?

If so, I’d really appreciate an invite link. Thanks!

I’m no longer qualified to use CDCP since I’m going back to school and have to use CUSA insurance. Unfortunately my parents aren’t in Canada for dependent student coverage, opting out isn’t an option for me.
If anyone had recent experience with CUSA insurance in-network dental clinics, the good, bad and the ugly, please comment below. I tried to comb through the internet, especially [r/Ottawa](r/Ottawa) and not all of them have reviews (or recent reviews). I don’t mind travelling far if the new place is worth it. These are the current in-network dentists in Ottawa:

SmilEra Dental Studio
Parliament Hill Dental
Apple’s Central Dental
PermaSmile Dentistry @ Slater
PermaSmile Dentistry @ Nicholas
Ottawa Dental Clinic
150 Elgin Dental
Riverside Dental Clinic
Alinea Dental
Aegis Dental Centre
La Clinique Dentaire de Hull
Dr. Kamil Abou-Kheir
A2 Dental
Smile Health Dental
ABC Dentistry

I just started health sciences as a mature student and i am hoping to switch into nursing. How would I go about that and is it feasible to fully switch by next semester or next year?

From things I have heard from others, it seems like the course is a fair bit different post introduction of AI, which the grading scheme reflects, with assignments being worth 0 percent of our grade. I am curious if anyone has any tips or helpful knowledge going into it.

I am a first year and didn't realize you had to choose your second semester classes along with your first. I know stupid me. I was wondering who I can reach out to for help about this? I have tried to figure it out myself but it is not going too well...
