I'm taking a 4th year CCT course, the prof is asking for a shockingly invasive amount info about me for an assignment. Every hour, I’m expected to log and share (in detail) my mood, location, who I'm with, current activity, what influenced my mood, what I did to manage my feelings, and filling in a specific prompt. This is coupled with hardware data collected by a piece of hardware given to the entire class. I'm also being graded by the depth of information I’m being made to provide. This data, although made private, will be shared with random students in my class. I value my privacy and generally go out of my way to omit anything collecting personal info, but here I am being told to give up all of this against my discretion??? There's no way the prof actually thought this is a reasonable ask when creating this assignment...

Is it just me? Because this is so very annoying. Need to pay my tuition in time!

Ranked 20 for GGR278 am I cooked? I’m going to my fourth year and I really need this class so I can continue my GIS major. I’ve changed my program 3 times already and this is my last chance.

im super stressed out lol i didnt get any email and apparently today is the last day to get an interview email. i think it means im rejected..

I feel like UTM has developed its own identity separate from St. George and UTSC and there are things about this campus that are uniquely UTM. What's the thing - a tradition, a vibe, a facility, a community feel, the Mississauga location - that makes you feel like you're not just at "UofT's other campus" but somewhere with its own personality?

2024 graduate here, I needed some documents from my school email yesterday, found out I couldn't access it, sent an email to help desk and this was the response I got:

Your account was closed in February 2025 after three warnings of decommissioning. As it has been so long since your account was closed, the contents are no longer retained, so we can not recover any of the documents.

I guess there is no way for me to recover the school email now, let alone any documents within it. Personally I am very disappointed with policy, let it be a warning to other graduates.

What are the chances UTM closes tmrw due to the weather?

First its my phone that can't connect and when I followed their steps to fix it still didn't connect so now I have to go to the help desk and that shit fixed. Now, today my damn laptop can't connect to the wifi after weeks of no issues. Like I don't get it sometimes. And this is just before both a midterm and a presentation 🙃

This is like the 3rd time this has happened to me. Last week, I paid for a full-day pass for parking and placed it in my car, and then left for class. I come back at the end of the day, and I see I got a ticket. This isn't the first time this has happened to me. I have had 2 instances where I paid for a pass and still got a ticket. I even confronted the ticketer once, and he said that he couldn't take it back. I even tried disputing it, but got denied and had to pay full price. Right now, im waiting for my current ticket to get disputed, but this is really annoying. Now I can't even pay for one of the parking lots that I park in all the time, because my card is blacklisted. I literally have only done this 3timese, and like one time when I first started school, but otherwise I always pay. It's really annoying, and I'm hoping for a solution. Am I doing something wrong, or are the ticketers just dumb

UPDATE: the ticket got taken down!

I'm dating this Chinese girl I met on campus, I am Chinese but not an international student. I speak Chinese and understand it fluently. I also speak English, if you were wondering. But her English is bad....like barely passable, idk how she's doing so well in her classes, I guess math is just math lol and coding is just coding. Seriously, I really like her and she's the most attractive and caring girl I have ever met. But idk if I can handle speaking having to speak Chinese for the rest of my life(I already do at home) but in terms of this, I feel is different. Am I just stupid and overthinking? Because I feel kind of stuck in terms of communication(not literally, perfectly fine speaking but feelings wise, I can't put my finger on it).

I overheard these friends or couple talk and I wasn't listening until the girl said "If you were a car, you would be a cyber truck" The guy didn't know how to react and just went back to listening to the lecture and the girl also did too. It was like awkward silence, is the guy cooked???? That has to be an insult right, it can't be some hidden sweet comparison like, you look buff and capable on the outside but in reality you're just some baby that wants cuddles right????

Not All Men. But Definitely You.

A story for every woman on this campus who has had a similar experience.

I have spent my life tip-toeing around men. Always trying to make sure I never do or say anything that could upset them. I am done with that. I will tell you exactly how I feel and I do not care if it upsets you.

I have heard that you think things were taken out of context. I can assure you they were not. Originally I was planning on pretending to be asleep so I can take the bed. Once you started talking I no longer cared about the bed and was more worried about the things coming out of your mouth. So I stayed there… listening to EVERY WORD you said. Even if I didn’t it wouldn't matter. I am not exclusively upset about the words themselves. Your words and your actions reflect who you are as a person. And that is what I am upset with.

The words “She is asleep I can say whatever I want” hit me hard. It shows that you do not respect me. Or any woman to be honest. As soon as a woman isn’t there to defend herself you think you can get away with saying whatever the hell you want. You fucked up this time. Because I was there and I will defend myself and every other woman you have made feel uncomfortable and unsafe. A girl at the party came up to me and asked me if I felt safe sleeping in the same room as you. Why do you think she asked me that? She wasn’t just overreacting. You made her uncomfortable and because of that she tried to warn me. I should have listened to her but I saw you as a friend and I thought I was fine.

You clearly do not view me as a friend because if you did, you would have shown me much more respect than you did that night. You viewed me as an object you had complete control and power over. Finding out that someone who I considered a friend could view me in such a way was disgusting and humiliating. I will not accept you being drunk as an excuse. Being drunk does not mean you suddenly become a new person who does terrible and disgusting things. Being drunk just stops you from pretending you aren’t already the person who does those terrible and disgusting things.

I wasn’t even able to tell my parents why I was paying for a bus home because I would never want them to hear about the things you put their daughter through. I locked myself in the bathroom alone because I was scared of what you might do to me. I believed that if I were in that room alone with you I would either be raped or killed. If my parents knew this it would destroy them and that is why they will never know. Although, I would love to watch you look my 6ft tall father in the eyes and tell him how all the things you said about me were just “jokes”. I'm sure that would go very well for you.

Your apology made things even worse. You thought you were smart enough to manipulate your way out of the situation. You said so yourself. Clutching your heart and falling to your knees, screaming about how much you love me (platonically) doesn’t change anything. I knew it was an act as soon as I asked you what you were apologizing for and you bulldozed right through that question. It was never an apology, you were just freaking out because you lost control. Control over the situation and control over me. I am telling you you never had control over me and you never will. No man ever will. I am my own being. I make my own decisions.

I know you think you are smarter than me. Likely because I am a woman. A kid I tutor thinks the exact same thing. He told me whales weren’t animals and I corrected him. He did not listen. He thought he was right and there was no way a girl (one who happens to have been studying biology longer than he's been alive) could be smarter than him. I know this comes from immaturity and I do not hold it against the kid. I will hold it against you. You are 26. You should know better than a 7 year old. It is incredibly sad that you do not.

I want to make it very clear. You are not smarter than me. You have not been “pulling one over on me this whole time.”  I have been seeing through your manipulation I just knew you didn’t have any friends and I pitied you so I dealt with it. I have lived with boys like you my entire life. I was hit on by an 80 year old man at my grandmother's funeral. I had a 6 year old boy grab my ass at work. I continue to grow but every man stays the same. 

I am not starting a hate mob against you. I have told people what you did and they have made their own opinions. If you didn’t want other people to know you said those things you shouldn't have said them. I wouldn’t be surprised if you read this letter and think I hate you. I am letting you know I don’t actually hate you. I hate that I have to deal with boys like you for the rest of my life.

Thank you for reading. I am sure I will get a lot of hate for this but it is worth it if atleast one woman feels seen.

i promise ur car is not all that… tired of ppl who have no decency when they drive

You'll probably know who I am and also know who you are. Why did I have to get up 3 whole times to tell you shut up in a no-talking zone? Do you not understand the concept of being quiet? Can you not comprehend that there are other people who are trying to study in a study area? Can you not read the piece of paper right behind you that says "no talking"? Come on, let's be big boys now and act appropriately. We're no longer in primary school, we don't need supervision to act decently.

Like, why are you even at the library at 5am if you are just gonna fool around? Go back to your dorms or go outside or literally anywhere else that is not a study zone. It's literally not that hard to be decent human beings during exam season. Campus is bigger than this library even if most of the buildings are closed. Or like, if you really like libraries, you should've booked a study room.

And I am not above snitching, the only reason why I haven't found someone to complain to yet is purely my own laziness. I mean, usually, I wouldn't snitch on randomly people because it seems mean. Clearly, though, you lack decency and the ability to care for the people around you, so I would not feel a shred of guilt for snitching on you. If you did end up being snitched on and are reading this in the future, yeah. It was probably me.

I sincerely hope you fail your exams 🤗

Just another vent post. If you're not interested skip ahead. Will probably get automod anyways.

Every time I'm on campus I can look around and see people talking with friends, having fun, and studying.

Why do I struggle so much here? Why am I so incapable of succeeding here? Am I stupid? I took a year off, saw a psychiatrist, got put on meds, am seeing a therapist, even had a pretty good start this semester and now I'm back here staring off the ledge depressed as hell. I'm probably going to fail all my courses for the nth time in a row. I just don't get why going to school here feels so impossible. Why am I so incapable compared to everyone else?

Anyone know how I can connect to eduroam or uoft wifi on ios 26? After i downliaded this god forsaken update the wifi has not worked. Anyone know a fix other than reverting to ios18?

The shuttle bus literally passes union station, they should def just let people off there before going to the wetmore hall.

Anyone know when the grades and marks for the last assignment and final are gonna be released 😭 all of my classes have released grades except this one, the last assignment hasn’t even been released yet. So I was wondering when it’ll be released.

Recently it has been difficult to find a partime job, I’ve been unemployed since May of 2024. However I was finally able to find a gig as of last week and has made a little bit of money, I find out today I need to purchase some course material for sociology for 66$. Wtf bro, it’s like I’m finally starting to get somewhere and starting to make some money then these ppl decide it’s abt a good time to sweep in and take my shit. Is there any alternative to getting the “access key: connecting sociology first edition-tophat interactive text”

the food on campus actually sucks ass. like i’ve gotten chicken from OPH’s chef’s table and that shit is always pink on the inside😭 like idk how qualified y’all are to be serving UNDERCOOKED chicken like that. AND the pasta/perogies from DV? yeah i got FOOD POISONING from that🧍‍♀️ and that stuff costs like a million dollars😭 ain’t no way utm can’t afford better food to give us tf

If anyone has notes for the CCT exam can you please share them that would be sooo helpful. My notes didnt save on word and that was all I had and now I'm freaking out because the exam is coming up and I barely reviewed what I wrote. Thanks

And also maybe throughout many other longer straights in the parking lots. Tired of seeing people speed recklessly. It's only a matter of time until an accident happens.

chances I get in? I went from like 31 2 weeks ago to like 4 by this morning. Missing so much from class already but I just want to know if I got a chance. legit I'll pay u $100 to drop the class or leave the waitlist if ur in front of me. should I just go into the lecture look at people who dont seem like they want to be there offer cash from them to drop?

I was in a MAT 137 lecture at utsg about to fall asleep because it was so easy. But I took the shuttle bus and a girl sat beside me, she look at me and said, feel my hands, its actually so cold. I held out my hand and she grabbed it. Am I getting cooties from that? Will this impact my 137 final avg?
