Have you seen this guy approaching girls at the Waterfront Campus?

So this guy has approached me and my friends on multiple occasions stating he has social anxiety and would like to sit and chat. He seems to only approach young women and asks questions about our class schedule and location. Almost every time I’ve been to campus I’ve seen him attempting to sit with/speak to a young woman (library, cafe, etc.) and they always look uncomfortable. White male, mid 20s, shoulder length hair, black frame glasses, turquoise backpack (Jansport)

Looking for used books for ECE program (C100) first semester

Hi everyone ^ I’m looking for used textbooks for the Early Childhood Education program (C100), first semester. If you have any books from this program that you’re not using anymore, I’d love to take them off your hands!

Whether you’d like to sell or pass them on, feel free to let me know. I can meet on campus or nearby.

Thanks so much ! ^

Just one available time for all courses?

Hi,

I am selecting courses for winter 2025 but I can only see 1 available time slot to select for all my courses. So I have 3 lectures on Monday, 2 on Tuesday. Then 1 on Wed and Thursday. I am traveling from Markham to dt so I want to minimize my travel. Does anyone know if VDES1004 has other session on Monday, Tuesday or Thursday? Or VDES 1003 has something other than Mon+Thursday?

It would be ideal if I can combine all the courses in 2 days or 3 so I don't have to travel so much. DVP sucks. Is it because other sessions are full so I can't see them or they are just have 1 session for this term?

Thanks!

Seeking Marketing Student for Internship in Comedy Production

Hello GBC students!

I am a local comedian and producer currently running a monthly show here in Toronto and I'm looking for a marketing student to help run the advertising and promotion side of things.

This is a compensated part-time position that would pay an hourly rate up to 10 hrs/month as well as a percentage of show profits. You would also have a modest budget to work with that would increase with show profits. I'd like to officially start with promoting the January show (on Jan 14th), so ideally we'd start working on it before the end of the year.

About the show:

Comedy Game Showdown is a live panel show inspired by the panel shows of British TV (QI, 8 out of 10 Cats, Mock the Week, etc.). The show is generally nerdy and pop-culture oriented with different themes every episode. The audio of the show is recorded and posted online as a podcast and on YouTube, with daily clips on socials.

We have done 40 episodes, about 2/3 of which are online with a bit of a backlog (part of why I'm looking for someone else to do promotions). You can watch episodes to get an idea at andascotchegg.com/episodes or see clips on socials at (@)andascotchegg on most platforms.

Your responsibilities:

Social media posts (including designing any paid ad campaigns)

Taking photos and video clips at the live shows for promotions on socials, as well as helping with the door when necessary.

Managing our (still small) e-mail list

Coming up with marketing ideas to try and helping me to implement them.

Compensation:

$20/hr up to 10 hours/month (2hrs in person; 8 remote)

20% of ticket sales less fixed expenses (this is about $250 if the room sells out).

To apply:

Send an email with a CV to andascotchegg at gmail dot com with the subject 'Marketing intern' by Dec. 10. I will get back to you by Dec. 15.

If you would like to see the show live on Dec 10 to get a better idea of what we do just send me an email for a comp ticket.

Thanks in advance for your interest!

RPN Application Uncertainty

Hi, I recently did admissions testing to get the credits for the RPN program. My status for bio & chem changed to "MET" today.

I also got a text message from GBC this morning stating "George Brown College: ______ , we need more info for your college application for Practical Nursing (PN) at Health Sciences School."

It said to login into stu-view and I did but I can't find any instructions for tasks that need to be completed. All I see is that my application in under admissions reveiw. Any ideas?

HVAC T162

Hello, I am currently a grade 12 highschool student who got offered admission at GBC for HVAC T160 and HVAC T162. I decided to accept the T162 (3 years) since it’ll give me more experience and put me ahead of the people taking the 2 year program. I wanted to ask what type of courses someone in T162 would typically be taking. I saw math for building technologies, refrigeration theory, and air conditioning theory. I’m a little worried about the level of math that’ll be used. Would I need to have an understanding of advanced functions or calculus and vectors? And would the sciences such as physics and chemistry be important to know beforehand? Thanks.

Matthew M. Not Responding to Emails – Need Advice

Does anyone know of alternative ways to get in touch with Matthew M. besides his Outlook email? I have a critically important issue to discuss with him, and the deadline is fast approaching (November 29th). I've emailed him multiple times, spoken to professors about the situation, and even contacted other administrative staff, but it seems impossible to reach him.

Other professors I've spoken to have also attempted to contact him on my behalf without success. Fortunately, I’ve been CC’ing other staff members in my emails to ensure there’s a record of my attempts, but I’m running out of time and patience.

Has anyone else experienced similar issues with him, or does anyone have advice on how to resolve this? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Fall 2024 Student Awards

Hi I was just wondering if there are any international students who applied for fall student bursaries/awards and if you have received an email of acceptance or if it was reflected on stu-view. I have some classmates who already received an email but they are all domestic students. i was just hoping that maybe they will still send acceptance in the next coming weeks.

Pre-Health Sciences Pathway to Advanced Diplomas and Degrees (A108)

Hello, I'm a grade 12 student and received an offer of acceptance for the A109 program. I plan on getting into dental assisting/hygiene , but my grades last year averaged around around low 70's and high 60's, but I plan on retaking my U bio course as I only received a 68(idk if i should retake my english as i only got a 67.) My grades this year are much better(around 80's except for a 60 in english during my midterm.) My question is: are my grades okay enough to get into the A109 program or can the A108 program help me get me into dental hygiene or should I just do the this degree program to get in? I really want to go to gbc but don't know what to do!!

St James Campus: any spots to attend online lectures?

Hello! As the title states, I was wondering if there were any spaces on campus where people could attend online lectures. A space where people wouldn't mind me talking aloud and at the same time being mildly noisy.

I don't need it for an upcoming term, but if there should be the case where I'd have to attend a future course as online only, I'm seeking a secure enough spot on campus. It would have to be on campus for I don't live in Toronto, so for commute I take the gotransit. So once I'm in Toronto I have to stay in Toronto until all my classes end for the day.

So say after a 10am to 12pm in-person class there was a 12pm to 2pm online class, before another 3pm to 6pm in person one, I'd like to know of a potential space where I could attend that online class. As one can see, I'm not familiar with the campus yet so before my first term starts I'm doing various research. Any info would be much appreciated!

SA Elections: Voting Week

This week is your chance to vote for the candidates who best represent your needs as a student. The Student Association is electing two executive positions and one educational centre representative, and considering all the drama that has taken place, it's more important than ever to vote wisely.

Watch the town hall debates held last week here:

Director of Communications & Internal Debate - Fall 2024 - The Dialog

Director of Operations Debate - Fall 2024 - The Dialog

So you have a better understanding of who can improve student life the most.

But remember, some of these candidates have made outlandish promises that are lies to get your vote.

Scholarships

Anyone here who has ever applied for scholarships that is currently on OSAP, what scholarships did you apply to and how did that impact your OSAP funding?

I miscalculated my expenses for the first semester and I am afraid I might be short on budget for the next semester. Considering I do not work right now (and do not foresee working during school either), will applying for scholarship help with tuition? In that case, will my OSAP funding decrease? Any information is much appreciated
