If there’s ANYTHING about Lee that you would change for better or worse, I’d genuinely like to hear about it.

Explain/vent as much as you’d like. No need to make your response sound formal or diplomatic. I’m interested in hearing what you all actually think.

I paid for my classes in full right before the semester started, so I assumed I was set. Luckily, I logged into MyUNLV today and noticed I still owed money… plus extra late fees. The deadline to pay before getting dropped from classes is the 9th, and I never received a single notification about an outstanding balance 😑

i know the standard is to take out facial piercings but is it the same at unlv? or are professors more lenient?

Hi!
I plan on transferring next year as a third year, and am wondering what the lgbt scene is like at this school? My current school unfortunately has a pretty bad issue with homophobia and discrimination, so Im hoping to find more tolerance at this school :)

Also wondering if there is a good artsy/creative crowd? Im really into animation and character design as well as fashion, and wondering if there is a decent social crowd who enjoys that as well <3

Thank you and have a nice day🙂‍↕️

Hello, I'm taking BIOL 190A and CHEM 103 right now. I'm unsure how to best approach the material/memorizing content. My BIOL 190A syllabus says most exam questions will be from lecture Powerpoints.

So I'm thinking I'll be most effective if I write out Powerpoint headings on index cards and fill them out as I read the textbook?

Do you have advice for approaching these memorization, content-heavy classes? Even if you didn't do well - how did you wish you approached it? I'm reading and notetaking every day but I feel ineffective once I take post-lecture quizzes.

Additionally, I care deeply about understanding and retaining the information for my future career. Please feel free to include as much advice, even if you're not a science major! I'm also in Mechanical. How do you approach textbooks and learning? Thank you in advance!

Hi guys! I am 20 and a transfer student from csn. I'm 3 weeks into the semester, and I'm having a hard time making friends :/ I've tried talking to others and making plans to hang out (with people I've gotten to know), but I either get stood up at the last minute or conversations don't really go anywhere. Is there any tips to make friends or anyone would like to be friends?

So I haven’t recieved my millenium scholarship and its been like a week. What’s going on?

I emailed the financial aid office and they haven’t gotten back to me. Please let me know asap I need that scholarship to pay my classes!

I’m a 25F UNLV student looking to connect with other girls on campus who love staying active and having fun with fitness! Studying takes up a lot of time, but I find my motivation is 100x better when done as a group. I’m mostly looking to do: Pilates (mat or reformer), Yoga, Zumba, or fun loving sports games. Down to hit up SRWC classes, check out local off-campus studios, or grab a smoothie at the SU after. All levels welcome. Purely doing this for fun and community! Drop a comment or DM me if you’d be down to check out a class together✨

Any advice?

This September, we’re inviting UNLV students to experience Flyover in Las Vegas at no cost while taking part in a neuroscience study exploring how the body responds to immersive entertainment.

Flyover is a flying theater experience that combines massive wraparound visuals with motion, sound, wind, mist, and scent. It’s genuinely incredible!

During the experience, you’ll wear a small research-grade ring sensor, similar to an Oura Ring, that will allow us to measure how your body responds as the experience unfolds.

Your ticket, normally around $40, is completely on us. You get to experience Flyover, contribute to a pretty unusual piece of research, and help advance the science behind how immersive experiences affect the nervous system.

The study is taking place September 15-30.

Hope to see some of you there!

Besides the Lied Library and the Student Union, are there any rooms or small lounges that students can stay in? I want to be able to freely eat my food without anything big open spaces or a lot of students around lmao.
Edit: thx yall for the recommendations I’ll definitely try them out.

currently talking this class with Victor Isbell fridays from 11:30 - 12:45 and the syllabus says the second week of class will be online. just wanted to make sure no one else is attending to save on gas lol

Have any girls experienced guys harassing them on campus??
It happens to me quite frequently, but when I've brought it up to my friends and other girls, they don't have similar experiences on campus.

Today while I was on campus two of the basketball players came up. After asking for my number and me denying, he reasoned by saying it's not cheating on his girlfriend if him and I just talk... gross! As soon as he said that I noticed his friend filming while laughing and shouting. I walked away immediately.
This is the second time this type of interaction (two men approach and one of them talks to you inappropriately while the other films) has happened to me since starting college. For reference, I just entered my second year at UNLV.

Last semester, a total of 13 guys (yes, I counted and no not including the ones who were genuinely sweet and asked me out on a proper date) went out of their way to catcall me or say disrespectful remarks.

Here's just a few standout instances where this happened while I was on campus at UNLV:

• One of the men was waiting outside my 8 AM class and told me him and his friend had been "watching me" for awhile (so creepy). He proceeded to tell me a string of profanities about how my physical appearance apparently made him feel. Then he grabbed my hand and put a crumpled up piece of paper with his phone number written down on it into my palm before he shut my hand with his. Mind you... it was 8 AM!! Wayyy to early for any of this nonsense but apparently not too early for this man to be a creepy stalker. Needless to say, I was completely shaken up the rest of the day and bombed my math exam.
• Over the summer, when I was taking summer session classes, I was studying alone on the fifth floor before I noticed a man find himself a seat nearby in the same area. It was summer so Lied was nearly empty, and I found it strange that he would sit nearby. I was on my guard of course but didn't think he posed a threat until he came up after twenty minutes and told me his thoughts on how I looked. Survival instincts had me immediately packing up my stuff to leave while asking him what classes he's taking over the summer (trying to steer the conversation to be about school), he tells me he's not a student at UNLV, he just likes to walk around campus. Major creeper alert... and I told him so. I said it's creepy that he does that, he said he does it on California campuses too (not making his case any better), and finally after the second time he asked for my number and I denied, he left.

Other notable instances:

• Old man professor came up and told me "You know, I don't see a whole lotta girls who looks like they belong in a magazine but you do!" (...Wtf)
• Male student came up to me while I was alone taking a call: "You look like you know all the good spots." (Insane... and during finals week too!?)
• Male math tutor who would help me with math for a moment before asking me several personal questions. At some point he followed me outside after I left the tutoring clinic and asked for my number. (As you can imagine, not for math reasons)

The most frustrating part of all of this is that it's fine.
These men are not harassing, assaulting, or threatening me, so I can't do anything about it (besides feel my self-esteem plummet and wonder if I will ever have my first boyfriend but no man has been respectful towards me yet for me to even consider the possibility of one). I know this because I have told security about these instances and they say they're sorry that it's happening but they can't do anything about it. Which I understand, because obviously it's not illegal for guys to be mean to girls. It just sucks.

Also, it's not what I wear. It's hot as hell in Vegas so yes me and all the other girls in this city are wearing shorts and crop tops occasionally. But these instances have also happened when I'm wearing a hoodie and sweatpants with no makeup on. It's not what girls wear. It's predatory men being exactly what they are: predators.

Ultimately I'm just frustrated this keeps happening and I would like to hear other girls' stories if they have any. Also PSA to any incoming first-year girls on campus to please be vigilant and learn how to defend yourself against these predatory men on our campus.

UNLV has given students free access to Claudes extended suite of tools which goes beyond the traditional free plan for Claude. Hope everyone takes advantage of this, because if you’re taking the moral high ground for AI use then you’ll just be left behind. Even career wise every industry will transition toward heavy AI use for “efficiency”.
