Smart man, he's simply trying to eliminate the competition so he can sell his own u-pass

Say goodbye to u-passes for sale once the student ID cards get passes built in

reading some old hilarious posts from overheard at sfu.

1: 2 girls on the 135:

Girl 1: I like the course. It's pretty easy once you get started on practice.
Girl 2: Yea I think it's good that it started off soft, so that you kinda know what to do when it gets hard...

*derpface*

2: Student: "What do you consider cheating?"
Prof: "Well, let's just say that cheating is like porn."
Student: "..."
Prof: "It's hard to explain, but I know it when I see it."

Would it be frown upon to work on editing a non-school related video in CSIL? I'm in cmpt classes so I have an access card, but wondering if anybody would be upset by this?

I wouldn't worry about it. You could say that it's for an IAT course or something.

A quick question about the Part Time Student grant.

If I say no to direct deposit, will I receive a cheque instead? And would I still have to fill in the banking information?

Thanks

After 2 semesters and into my third at the moment here's what I've figured out so far:


AQ washrooms are dirty as fck, avoid at all costs

Go to the gym early... or else all the benches/racks will be taken by newbies

If you're not addicted to coffee, you will be (stock up on some caffeine pills it's cheaper )

Bulk up at the "fight club" - all you can eat and you could pretty much stay there for the entire day...

Rent a book locker at West Mall centre - it's right beside the gym and costs half as much (there's no holes where people can see your stuff)

Some people park on Hastings and take the bus up to campus (take advantage of your u-pass! It saves tons of money for me)

Don't ever buy a new textbook - buy used, find a pdf, or go ghetto like me and take pictures of all the pages (I saved $400 so far since I couldn't find a used copy or pdf for my books last semester)

If you have League of Legends, uninstall that shit asap

Meet some people in the first 2 weeks of classes, otherwise you'll feel

Avoid the lower bus loop between 3pm - 5pm, take the upper one otherwise the buses will always pass by your b/c they're full

Unless you're on scholarship.... all the classes you want to take will be filled for Spring semester (first years get LAST priority enrolling) so sign up for all the courses with the least amount of seats!

Take 4 courses.... unless you want to be like a keener like me who took 5 courses first semester

Don't get lost in RCB Hall or the Education building - it's a maze

Attend orientation, and go to any FROSH if you get the chance




Hope to see you around campus next Fall

TASC building is the best building to study and do assignments in. I used to do work in the 5/6th floor in AQ but sometimes i need wifi and the wifi isn't as strong there as it is in the TASC building. Plus the view is beautiful, sometimes i feel its better than the view of the mountains in WMC.

Make sure you take care of yourself by getting plenty of sleep and keep stress to a tolerable level. Pick up on good study habits EARLY, you won't regret it.

Can't stress this enough.

But lets be honest, when does that ever happen

Spoiler!


Haha, laughed at some of these because it's so true. Couldn't have said it better myself.

In addition to parking, if you really want to drive up the mountain, there is free 2 hour parking on University Cresent over at UniverCity. Only downside is that you gotta walk 5-10 mins to the AQ, but hey, saves you money for sure.

Some of what foreveryours said are very true. But taking pictures of new textbook or parking down the hill is really a pain in the ass. Either you drive all the way up or none at all. Plus you have to either stand at a bus stop waiting for 135 or 145. Just personal preference. But UniverCity parking is a good option.
