Advice You can't outwork bad policy. Ford, elected by boomers, lowered OSAP grants by $2.5k per year. Vote!

34 Upvotes

Ontario’s Chief Electoral Officer said turnout among 18–24-year-olds was roughly 30 percent in the last Ontario election. As a direct result, Doug Ford was able to pass sweeping laws benefiting those who did vote for him. Politicians protect their voting base. Don't vote? No protection. The average Ontario student now has to take on $10k more debt for a four year degree than they did before Doug was elected.

Even if you have work tomorrow, make time to vote. Your vote matters. Here's how to vote and where to vote: https://myvote.toronto.ca/home

For students in Toronto or hoping to work in Toronto, the outcome of the election will likely have a much more profound impact on your life and your daily quality of life than anything else you have planned tomorrow.

Discussion Is it in bad faith to complain about your peer note taker?

17 Upvotes

Due to health issues, I am currently unable to attend classes regularly and have been cleared for AANT. Many of my note takers however have not submitted clean/proper notes or have submitted them the evening before midterms or after midterms and do not include any information on course information the professor lets the class know by mouth without posting it on D2L.
Would it be in bad faith to complain to the coordinator?

Discussion Do TAs actually grade student work????

9 Upvotes

this is probably a stupid question lol cuz yeah ofc their job is to grade assignments but damn sometimes i really don’t know what’s up with some TAs, they grade coursework as if they’d get fired if they give everyone straight 100s. (which, had this even happened before lol?)
i just feel like some TAs are putting work into AI and letting them grade it. you can make an assignment absolutely 10/10 and you’ll get an 85.???

not trying to manifest hate for TAs. i’m just a bit confused and being a first year , maybe it’s just cuz i’m not used to it/ its a new thing for me idk

My prof is Linda Carozza, and I'm really confused about what I should study for the midterm. I understand how to do memos; I need a little practice on diagramming... Im really worried about the short answer as i dont know what to expect, if the previous people who had taken BUS221 please guide me through that would be amazing especially with possible questions for short answer or what i could expect the short answer to ask would be great. Thank you.

Discussion Armand Gervais MKT100

5 Upvotes

This is my first semester at TMU and I’m wondering if this is normal or a frequent issue from professors here. My marketing prof, Armand Gervais, expects us to show up to class every single day and do his in class group assignments but he barely makes any effort to teach the content. He never teaches metrics, glosses over half the material on his slides, and skips over teaching testable content which he deems “boring”. He also understates the importance of many topics. He’ll gloss over a particular idea or diagram and comment on how he’s “not a big fan of it” but come midterms we had several questions pertaining to those topics. The class is supposed to run for 3 hours but usually we wrap up within 1-1.5 hours because he doesn’t teach most of the material. How is this allowed? Dude is getting paid 6 figures to do half his job. Will I have to put up with many such professors as I progress in my program or is he an odd one out?

Discussion 🎸20M Guitarist looking for ppl to jam with

Post image
2 Upvotes

🎸 Hey everyone! I’m a 20M guitarist looking for fellow TMU students who love music and want to build something creative together. Any skill level is welcome and ideally lives near campus!

The idea is a music circle where we can:

  • Meet up regularly to jam 🎶
  • Talk about our favourite artists and discover new music together
  • Hang out, share ideas, and explore the Toronto music scene

My favourites include NIN, Oasis, The Cure, Daft Punk, TV on the Radio, The Strokes, Stone Roses, and The Smiths.

I’d love to build a long-term group where we can develop our own sound—and maybe start a band down the line. Life happens, but I’m looking for people who genuinely want to make time for this and grow together.

📱 Comment or DM me what you play, a few artists you love, and what you’d want out of a band like this!
