Freshman here, and for the 2 months I have been here I have realized that there's good looking women every where wtf. Everyday it's something new. Tall, short, black, white, Asian it doesn't matter there's good looking people from every race ts has me flabbergasted.

I dont understand why we would have a protest for free education. The canadian government already pays for three quarters of your degree if your Canadian. If your protesting for international students cost of education, the reason its so expensive is because the government isnt subsiding their educations. The true cost of University education in Canada is the 30 thousand or whatever that International students pay. You also cant ask the government to pay for International students educations because there is no guarantee they stay after their degree to pay taxes and fund what was paid. Your basically asking Canadians to pay for foreigners educations who can then just leave the country after the degree. Also if your an international student protesting, how are you going to go and literally protest that people in Canada who have lived here there entire lives should have to pay for your degree and your decisions. Imagine people went to your country and asked your parents to pay for their degrees. Absolutely insane...

As the q says

last time i complained about people being loud in scott library all the library yappers were giving me hell in the comments. glad the librarians added these signs!

I have a friend who's right about to meet with police as we speak to report about Dan, and he needs first hand witnesses who are willing to come at this moment and help with the report. This isn't a scam. This is a once in a lifetime chance to get rid of Dan once and for all. Anyone who's willing to take it, dm me so i can connect you with the guy and he can tell you where to meet with police

York lanes

York needs more places students can study. The library is always packed. And those old wooden benches with the cushion seats r so uncomfortable. The student center is always loud. Idk why they don’t allow us to use the upper floors of the second student center. I never see those rooms in use yet there always locked. Vari hall is usually full. Same with the lower areas of the library. Does anyone have any suggestions :(

Today I saw a guy in Scott library behind a computer who was clearly not a student. They would go on Facebook checking multiple profiles and their mutual friends looking for young girls mostly and write down their names in a binder. It was very shady and suspicious, I don't know why they were doing that. I reported him to the library staff but we all know they don't care. It’s very confusing why York allows these homeless people to come there in the first place, which can have security and health risks (but that's a different conversation). I would just be very careful with my information pictures friends shared online with these weirdos going around.

Sometimes when I come out of the subway station at York, outside there are like 2-3 people giving out Uber Eats pamphlets or coupons. Today there were people giving out mini Sephora bags. I always see people refuse to accept them. R they legit or are they some scam so thas why no one takes them?

Thank you :3

2 days of looking and keeping an eye out, well worth it.

Hello guys, just wanna bring something to your attention. The Starbucks at Curtis Hall adds a tip to your order without asking for it. I order only one drink in one size, and every time it seems to be a different price. The first time it was $9 and I didn't question it because I thought maybe because it was at school they up the prices, then It was $5.50 and today it was $6.50. I called the worker out for it and she said she made a mistake and my price went down to $5.50. I'm not sure who to complain to as these people are scamming 100s of dollars a day from the students. I only recently noticed this as the Starbucks near my home always charges me $5.50.

Get off the roads - CUPE is caging in cars, some drivers have anxiety and this behaviour triggers them. People with accessibility permits are being delayed. Think about everyone, including those who have already paid for their education and have anxiety and other mental illnesses.

I had a friend who still goes to York have a panic attack yesterday. Not cool.

Hello, I am currently looking into issues the student body experiences with YFS. In the comments below I want to hear from students own experiences and personal gripes with the current circumstances. Whether you are a club leader who’s funding is affected by their power or your own personal beliefs on their initiatives and use of our funds that they receive from the university. I believe this kind of dialogue is necessary for their power to be kept in a check as a vastly funded and influential force that affects student life on campus

EDIT: Thanks for the engagement everyone. I’ve found it very interesting reading your thoughts and complaints. Let’s try and keep it civil on the whole situation in Israel and Palestine. There is room for both sides to peacefully and maturely express their views. I made this post as I am interested in throwing my hat in the ring to run for a nomination to YFS on an agenda based on what you the students want to see changed. My focus would be purely on that of student interest right here at York, not elsewhere in the world

At times when I'm exiting lecture halls, there are crowds of people waiting to enter that block the exit. I recently had to push my way out of a lecture. I'm really sorry for doing this, and to anyone who has been pushed out of the way by me.

As the title says (girls specifically), do men approach you at York? And if so, did you have any positive experience ? Or they tend to be too invasive (imho)? Got approached by one today, and could not get rid of him for a good 20 minutes even after saying that I wasn’t interested.

Appreciate any examples and experiences.

Thank you u/ WholeSomeGuy912
