The use of AI in the BIO series is actually such horseshit. Like every single lecture slide from bio 2 and 3, AI. It’s so sad. BIO 1 with Marshall and Mcnunn was good they actually had concepts that a human thought of but for bio 2 and 3 these teachers sound like they don’t even know what they’re talking about. Reading off the whole slide and the whole thing is covered in ChatGPT emojis and “key points” that are ai slop. What a waste of money.

I recently visited the financial aid department, so I got this information from them.

BASICALLY the waiver issue was brought up during a meeting today within davis administration board and they are looking into it as we speak. That being said, it is advised to wait 1-2 weeks in regards of any updates that they might have to resolve these incorrect waiver dismissal.

So if your waiver was dismissed during this month then DO NOT PANIC. Its most likely that you wont be dropped from any courses due to this issue, at least before everything has settled. This issue is being resolved as speak so hang on tight.

DISCLAIMER: i am not an insurance or financial aid representative/professional, the info i provide is all base on the research i did on the topic as well as my, and other students experiences ive been seeing on reddit. this is not an advertisement, just trying to share information for struggling students.

i know there’s been a lot of discussion about the denial of waivers the past couple days and i did a little further research that i hope can provide at least one person with the information they need.

IF YOUR UC SHIP WAIVER WAS DENIED HERE ARE POSSIBLE COURSES OF ACTION

1. if you ARE willing to stay on ship

: call the financial aid office on campus and speak with them about the situation, see if there’s anyway to re-evaluate the cost of attending since you now have additional charges ($3k+ for one year) and see if there’s a way for you to get back on health insurance assistance (check for appeal options or see if you qualify for special circumstances)
2. if you ARE NOT willing to stay on ship: there should be an ‘appeal of waiver denial’ in which you can fight the decision (MUST BE SUBMITTED WITHIN 15 DAYS OF DENIAL and can take up to 10 days to be reviewed), i think you’d need to get into contact with Student Health and Counseling Services to file it officially with additional documentation
NOTE: after having the waiver denied you cannot submit another waiver (hence the appeal of the denial), and THIS DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL BE ACCEPTED -> plus if i were to do option 2 and it is rejected again i would at least try to push for option one to lessen the financial burden.
here’s a link to the website about it, and where you can find the pdf (first blue link after the OTHER section)

these won’t fix the problem alone but is just the next possible steps…
if anything is wrong or outdated please let me know! i want this information to be as helpful as possible.
best of luck to you all.

Yik Yak or Reddit ?

F you, Uship.

Splendid.

Hello, im currently in a UWP Journalism and writing an article on Yakutians on California. Look for people to interview, thanks!

Hi, I am looking to apply for the UCD chem PhD program.

However, I have heard that due to the funding shortages in recent years that PhD students need to secure funding yearly rather than it being guaranteed for the duration of the PhD.

In addition, the application webpage states that students may receive competitive funding and tuition support, rather than will. I also do not understand how the internal funding works fully.

Could someone fill me in on this or at least direct me to resources?

yo how should I study for hayashis midterms to get an A?

Hi! I was wondering if anyone who has taken a class with Professor Jeanette Ruiz knows how quickly she usually responds to emails.

This is probably a long shot but does anyone know the white-haired catboy who got second place at the catboy competition on Saturday? I thought they were really cute but didn't get a chance to talk to them

Ok I know we all think that sometimes the food is really simple, repetitive and bad, but to be fair, nutritionally it is great. They have carbs, protein and fiber with at least 2 options to choose from each. I see that a lot of people won't use salt or pepper which is something that makes the food better, white rice for example doesn't taste like anything but pepper and salt will make a difference i promise.

These fuckers literally sent my Second/Last Notice two days before the deadline to submit my insurance documentation. This shocked me because I didn't even get the "first notice" email. After doing some digging it turns out, they sent the first notice to the UC Davis Health portal. LOOK AT THE EMAIL THAT SENDS YOU TO THE FIRST NOTICE LETTER. It's the most least concerning email that a majority of people would ignore since they don't even use UC Ship in the first place.

For the record, I was able to submit my insurance information. But it was the most jank PDF ever, essentially a combination of JPEGS. It didn't even show solid evidence that the doctor in Davis was actually my doctor. And in the end it got accepted anyway?? What a waste of time. What an insult to those who couldn't find their NOA letter in time and now have to pay thousands for a service they don't need.

walking outta the room yelling fml bro
Does anybody knows abt his curve or if he curve by exam/overall?

Thank you Thank you Thank you

i have discovered that the water fountains in the chem building and in academic surge disperse ice cold water. looking for other buildings that have similar amenities…. as someone who doesn’t carry a water bottle some crispy cold water is a fucking commodity

Hello so I was at the ARC a couple days ago and I was locking my bike before I go in so I was slightly bent over. There was an escooter right next to me and there were 2 and I know there were 2. This guy came in and bent all the way down and started jiggleing with the lock and he put his face in my ass and I was like wtf and he sped walk the other direction. I remember he looks Asian but I don’t remember his face or anything else. What do I do? I’m still in shock a week later I don’t know what to do.

Edit: I forgot to mention I am 17 I am a minor

Right now I'm staying at the Green at West Village. I wasn't given the parking permit so although I have a license, I don't have my car. I'm in the process of being hired at a job in Sacramento and they would prefer if I had access to a vehicle.

Is there any place where I can park my car overnight and not worry about a high expense? I've heard some parking garages in downtown charge monthly and you can leave your car there but I'm not sure how safe or true that is. Please help.

Honestly I'd pay someone to let me park my car at their house at this point.

Have yall voted yet? Where did yall vote at Davis? I’m new to voting so I’m not sure and asking how yall did it.
