Westwood Apartments

• Upvotes

I was looking for housing around UCLA and was wondering if the convenience of living nearby campus in Westwood but paying a higher price compared to living somewhere else like in Sawtelle that is more affordable was a tradeoff that was worth considering? 

I’ve been having a hard time finding affordable apartments or studios in Westwood and was thinking I would be better off living somewhere else farther away from campus. Unfortunately, I don’t have a car, for those who commute, how is the bus ride from Sawtelle to North Campus? Does anyone also have any recommendations for any apartments nearby campus?

Transcripts are due in January but the TAU portal allows you to update grades by March. If your GPA changes during that period, which GPA do they go with?

Looking for an English Conversation Partner – UCLA Law Student

Hi everyone!

I’m looking for an English-speaking conversation partner for a friend who is currently studying at UCLA School of Law.

The goal is to improve his spoken English, legal vocabulary, and confidence in academic and professional discussions, while also exchanging ideas and learning from each other.

If you’re interested or have any recommendations for where to find someone, please feel free to comment or send me a DM. Thanks!

Why the MBA Program Has Fewer Applicants...is it still worth it?

0 Upvotes

Ok, so the fucking MBA program: you know, the one that a lot of older shysters join at night after working a job they don't like during the day commute to?

Well, it turns out the program is losing 21% of application income, I mean applicants.

I mean like, fucking...people are kinda waking up to the idea that jobs should have purpose. And that purpose goes way way way beyond trying to learn how to rip people off. Because no matter how far "ahead" one is in the rat race...there's always someone better than you somehow one way or another.

MBA is a purely theoretical and soft-study type of degree. It's not like art, where real talent is touched upon (despite all the special interests influencing what constitutes art). I can put on some gloves and take the pile of shit from the toilet in fucking Guy Haines Hall and throw it on the wall and claim it's art. Sure enough, some sick bastard on ebay is gonna wager a dollar on it. That's business!

Is an MBA actually going to help our society excel and resolve the issue that remains with the rich getting richer and the poor becoming poorer? Fuck that.
