    the people’s potato: delicious

    September 26, 2006

    Hi cutie
    My friend who goes to Mc Gill was telling me about The People’s Potato, a student-run free vegan food type place.
    If McGill is giving out free food and U of T isn’t, I’m switching schools. I’m too poor even for ramen today.
    Is there anyone on/near campus dishing it out for no cost? Tell me there is.

    can you write your way out of a knuckle sandwich?

    November 29, 2001

    I’m in my first year & taking humanities/social sciences (no decisions re:majors tho)..and I’m really interested in taking some creative writing courses..but u of t seems to have an extreme defecit of them! I am not really interested in majoring in English, but I’d still love to do some creative work…is it possible to take courses at other universities (say, like..YORK..i know, the enemy) and earn credits towards a u of t degree?

    another harsh dose of reality

    October 9, 2001

    aska: I recieved the following rant from a bitter student –

    Hi, first of all, Great Web site and fantastic work! Very Immpresive! I have just discovered this site two days ago but I am realldy addicated to it now.
    I want to make a point here and I would like to know what is your opinion on it.
    Do you think the university has set up way too many (administrative)barriers preventing students from leaning the knowledge they want most?
    I do. For example, I am a transfer student from YorkU(after completed 2 years comp. Sci there) and trying to get into comp.sci and commerce at UT now. I have every thing they want except I do not have a “pretigious MAT137”. I have done the standard full year calculus course at York already which is a tough course too. And I got A+ for it. I know myself that I have a very strong math background. But the departments does not care. I simply was asked to take it again! Which means more money and more time and even worse, delay of graduation.
    I may agree that MAT137, in some aspect could be harder but I also believe that York’s calculus course should have prepared the students a strong enough background in the filed as well.
    As students, we came to university because we simply want to learn knowledge? Why the hell there are so many “political” stuff making our life so hard? What do you think about this point as a senior university student?
    Thanks very much for your time.
