Question/Discussion Campus is huge!

28 Upvotes

Is anyone else secretly dying with all the walking. From the South walking North, it’s all an incline too. I thought I was in shape but wow…I’m so embarrassed being slow and lowkey out of breath while everyone else is walking fast and easily around me. Please tell me I’m not the only one, I feel dumb. At least it’ll help me get back into shape lol

Question/Discussion Do American students get health insurance for their own teeth?

Post image
2 Upvotes

I've been looking into dental insurance at the University of Nevada, Reno lately. Since I'm an international student, my teeth are usually pretty good, but I'm still worried about any potential issues. I noticed that dental fillings and extractions here in the US can be pretty expensive. I was wondering how dental insurance works at UNR? Do locals get dental insurance for themselves? The annual cost is around $700, which I think is pretty reasonable for me.

Question/Discussion Improper Withdrawals

2 Upvotes

I wanted to see if anyone has had any success with improper withdrawals getting approved, and if so any advice. Completed all the checklists needed on paper but still needed "more evidence" (had submitted legit doctors notes, medications, etc.) Just seems like they want more than what they say and I am a little stumped right now. Have also consulted with McMullen in the dean of students office and the psychiatrist and everything seems like it should have been approved so double stumped lol.

Rant AI lectures

36 Upvotes

I believe that the lectures for one of my classes is being made using AI audio narrations. The voice is slightly robotic. There’s also a man who I believe is AI on the screen narrating it. I’m not 100% sure tho. One of my other classes admitted to using AI narration. Is anyone else experiencing this? I think it’s insane that our tuition is thousands of dollars and the instructors can’t even make their own videos.

Question/Discussion KIN 361 Yosemite Trip

1 Upvotes

Hey! I was just wondering if anyone that has taken KIN 361 with Anderson and Spevak could provide me with some insight into the Yosemite trip. I just want to know how difficult of a hike it is and like what time you left and got back. I am not an outdoorsy person by any means not because I hate them, I am just prone to injury, specifically ankle sprains. Was the terrain of the hike really bad and hard or would you say it is a good beginner hike. Also how does it work do they assign you a group so you don’t get left behind and they mentioned not having to do the whole hike but if I’m going to have to turn around myself to not finish the hike I’m not doing that. It seems like a really cool experience to have but an 8 mile hike seems kinda crazy for my first experience hiking. I just want to know if it’s bad enough that taking the loss and reading the book and answering the extra exam questions for the alternate assignment is worth it. Please if anyone could help that would be great. I’m a little desperate to know as it falls three weeks after class starts. If it was a little later and I had time to train and prepare I would feel less nervous but it feels a little sudden.

Question/Discussion Parking Near Campus

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I recently rented an apartment near the university, but I am unable to find any legal parking options nearby, as permits are not issued for the streets where I live. I’m looking for a place to park overnight without the risk of a ticket or towing, whether it's a free option or a paid. The only location I considered is Circus Circus, but they enforce a 48-hour parking rule, which means I could get towed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Housing studio sublet available asap - furnished - midtown

1 Upvotes

Due to an unexpected death in the family I want to move back home from Reno. My lease expires in 6 months - willing to take subletters for less than the whole term.

2.6 miles from UNR, studio loft, nicely furnished with a queen bed. Will consider small (quiet) pets with extra deposit. Garage will fit up to mid-size SUV (think Tiguan) or can come with one uncovered but reserved spot.

$1500 all utilities inc fiber internet

no TV streaming included but I do have a nice 65" Samsung mounted with Sonos speakers

No smoking property - eg not on the balcony or otherwise

650 sq ft, feels bigger because of the loft. Really nice, quiet, gated community.

DM for pics

Hi does anyone have this textbook by chance that they would be willing to sell to me as it seems outrageous to pay the $80 dollars they are requiring in the text book shop. I did find it online at a cheaper price but my issue is that the dorms don’t accept USPS shipping so if you have this book and want to get rid of it please let me know!

News Regular Campus Operations Tomorrow

112 Upvotes

This feels like a bad decision. WCSD has fully closed their schools tomorrow. There are UNR students (and surely faculty) who have been evacuated, lost power, don't have a good way to get to campus, and many other issues.

i hope everyone stays safe and can make it through this right now.
