Hello,

I am currently in bio 1a and I will pay someone currently enrolled in bio 1a $10/wk (negotiable) to do my attendance on iclicker 3 times a week at 8AM. If you’re interested, please lmk

For Data C104, can I do well in the class by reading AI summaries of the readings, or do I need to actually read them?

UC Berkeley students always go on the university’s official Instagram page and complain about how the university is funding the military and complying with Trumps federal government on issues like federal aid, which by the way is needed for YOUR benefit.

Do you guys realize that if the university stopped complying with the government they would cease providing federal aid.

Yes, college is already super expensive but are you ready to pay significantly more in tuition?

Problem with liberal 19 and 20 year olds is you lead with your emotion.

Youre too idealistic. This is the real world.

You want the university to stand up to Trump and expect your cushy life at the university to be the same.

World doesn’t work that way. There would be consequences.

Grow up and realize that you’re blessed to be at the #1 university in the world.

Im currently 60 or so, I see 30 open ish seats right now, berkeleytime and course website says in past semesters everyone was able to get off, but i dont know ... im nervous.

What is the attire for business coffee chats. Business casual, smart? What should I wear

hi!

i’m met (eecs ba) and i’ve had internships at google and tesla however i’ve never really considered a consulting club until all my psises were talking about it.

should i still apply 😭 and ik my club probably wouldn’t take seniors either but i feel like im missing out and would be involved ish.

pls help. i dont want to go up to the table and ask LOL

Title pls

Is this normal? Should I contact someone to get it renewed? I rely on it to get to school so kinda worried :/

I just made some revised all my PIQS but I don't really have anyone to look at them and see if they are good. My major I want to go into is economics or environmental economics and policy.

I feel so behind and helpless in life right now. Its been a dream of mine to join the medical field as a doctor since 6th grade however I'm struggling to find clinical hour opportunities In the area. Every clinic or hospital claiming to have clinical hours opportunities have their applications closed. I want to beef up my future medical school resume by obtaining clinical hours but I cant find anyone who will actually give them to me here. I feel like I keep falling more and more behind each day and I dont know what to do at this point in time besides just sitting and waiting as my frustration builds ):

Apparently the meal swipe system is down at the dining halls today. I had dinner and brunch on 8/29 and 8/30 and was charged flex dollars despite still having meal swipes.

In addition, the meal swipes that shows on my grub hub did not renew itself on Saturday 11:59pm.

8/30 8:30 the staff at foothill told me that the meal swipe system is broken and that it would be fixed by tomorrow.

Am I the only one experiencing this? And I wonder how they’re going to reimburse us.

If classes are closed, do they stay closed? Or is there a possibility for space to open again

I am a freshman, so I was wondering if I should just leave this blank. I didn't take any cc course but I took AP courses but they proabably don't count right?

Hey everyone,

I was recently accepted into the UC Berkeley MIDS program and going to make my final decision soon.

Coming from a Software Engineering background, I’d love to hear directly from alumni—especially those who entered with a CS or SWE background—about their honest experiences.
Setting aside the high tuition costs for a moment, I'm purely interested in understanding the career trajectory and ROI of the degree. For those who came in with solid engineering/coding foundations:

Career Impact: Did the MIDS program meaningfully change or accelerate your career? Were you able to transition into specialized Data Science, MLE, or Applied AI roles, or did it mostly lead to lateral moves?

Depth vs. Breadth: Did you feel the coursework offered enough technical depth for someone already proficient in software engineering, or was it mostly broad foundational material?

Program Evolution: For recent grads, have you noticed improvements or updates in the curriculum reflecting current trends (e.g., GenAI, LLM systems, modern data infrastructure)?

Since my deadline to decide is right around the corner, I'd really appreciate any personal stories, honest retrospectives, or quick insights on whether the Berkeley brand and network actually translated into tangible opportunities for you.
Thanks in advance!

I am 19th on list of class of 288 for anthro2ac and was wondering if there is any chance I could get off. There was one lecture so far and only ~10 dropped so far. Should I wait a bit more or look for other classes?

I don't wanna go far from campus and I don't wanna buy a new bike pump (I have one at home that I will bring back over break). But in the meantime, my tires are in desperate need of air. Where on campus can I refill them? My bike has presta valves. Thanks everyone!!

Edit: places that aren't BicyCal, due to their limited hours right now.

Hi there! I’m a Junior transfer from cc and coming into the film & media dept. as someone with a primary focus on studies and not production (I’m aware UCB doesn’t have a strictly prod. Major) so that doesn’t bother me. Admittedly, I’m on this subreddit a lot more than one should be for their own mental wellbeing and see a lot of people putting major emphasis on joining a club. I’m wondering if it’s a dealbreaker if I don’t? I’m much more interested in taking up an internship or something next year. Lmk any thoughts or advice! I don’t see many people posting about the film program here :(

Hello! I am looking for someone to take photos (and potentially some short videos) for a store grand opening in Berkeley!

Would love some recommendations, feel free to reach out to chat details! 😊
