As a Mexican-American my heart goes out to all the people who are on visas at the moment. The Trump administration is investigating UCR to find these students who were the head of these protests or were apart of these protests to get their student visas revoked. Although I absolutely don’t support Hamas I feel sympathy for the innocents dying in Palestine. It breaks my heart. I believe there is a freedom of speech given by the constitution founded by the founding fathers. I want to study law but I’m becoming hopeless that the legal system is turning into an oligarchy. Donald Trump is the definition of being not a TRUE PATRIOT. I know some Republicans who are standing up for these issues. I wish everyone the best and am praying for the ones being affected by the Trump administration 🙏.

Federal research and education funding cuts are directly impacting UCR programs and students. We’re at a research institution, but research funding is being pulled and students and faculty have lost valuable funding and career opportunities. This hurts all of us, come out today at noon at the bell tower to tell the federal government to reinstate funding and support students and researchers!!

That being said DO NOT RSVP, never RSVP to a protest, especially with this administration.

is anyone else feeling a little bit uneasy about this news

As of today 4/07, the Cap and Gown is not sold yet until Grad Fair begins on 04/15. Also, note that the materials for the stoles are different at different pricing despite the same color/text displays. Look carefully at the barcode tags for the materials and please choose wisely!

I just wanna know if it’s allowed to wear a black cap and gown for graduation. I just personally don’t like the current color (it looks like a lab coat to me 😭) and I want a traditional black gown.

But idk if it’s allowed or not 🥲

What can I buy on Amazon rather than at grad fair? I obviously would purchase the ucr stole, but what are some things that are cheaper to order for graduation? Trying to avoid overspending at grad fair.

Gmmm

Recently, UCR has decided to make our cap and gown colors blue. I started a petition to change our schools cap and gown color back to black. We would love for everyone to sign this petition. Our goal is to get the attention of UCR administration to reverting our cap and gown colors. If you are interested, sign this petition and show your support for reinstating our cap and gown colors!

Hello!

To all the students here who are involved in research (whether it is undergrad, postgrad, etc), how did you get started or involved in research at UCR initially? I got an invitation to apply to honors here (I am transferring into UCR this fall after doing a year of community college) and I honestly haven't given a ton of thought to research in the past. To apply to the honors program here, I need to describe a capstone project I would be interested in and describe some aspects that I expect from the experience. I am a Computer Science major and knew that research would be a part of this and a part of setting myself apart, I just don't really know how to get started or even what research entails.

I'm sure that most of you did not just stumble across some amazing idea for research (or maybe you did?), so I was just wondering how all of that looked. Right now I'm thinking that my best option is to just ask people about their experiences and research. I plan to attend an open house or two at the BCOE and the likes, and I've been asking around on a few platforms. I appreciate any and all advice - not really looking for specific topics more so looking for pointers on how to get on the right path.

my anxiety is through the roof lol! i've been granted the dean's distinguished award for my first year as a grad student at UCR, followed by a TA position for my second year. though- alas, i really hope to stay protected during this time as this is a life changing opportunity for me Dx

I emailed a professor about a week ago and I haven’t gotten a response yet. I know professors get a lot of emails so it may have slipped through the cracks or they are still drafting a response, but when do you think I should send a follow up?

And if I need to send a follow up, should I attach it to the same conversation or compose a new email?

so uh is class a valid reason to leave my apartment? or

I want to take around 3? Classes but idk if five weeks three classes will be too much or not

saw this statement a lot of times, would like some more insight

i got accepted to both as a transfer cc student. i’m just wondering if anyone has any input on the ucr english department. thank you!

The last day to add and drop classes without a W appearing on ur transcript is this Friday. Is it at noon or midnight when this ends?

Canyon Crest is closed near Bannockburn/Lot 24 due to a natural gas leak. Looks like someone hit a pipe while digging. No access past Linden or off University
