<blockquote>Cause ours is.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/know.gif" alt="" /> UC Santa Cruz over-enrolled by 1,500 students this year,:hard: and the place is a zoo.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/lvl.gif" alt="" /> They had to kick all 3rd and 4th years off campus<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thebreaks.gif" alt="" /> and make some dorms into quadruples.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jeigh.gif" alt="" /> But really, the biggest impact is felt in the off-campus rent market, where students and other renters are being price gouged because of a housing shortage.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/waaambulance.gif" alt="" /> I have friends<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspect5es.gif" alt="" /> who live a 20 minute drive from campus.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crick13ab.gif" alt="" /> Getting on the bus is a mess too  <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doggie.gif" alt="" />- I feel bad for these 60 year old professors <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/game02vy9.gif" alt="" /> who have to stand, crammed like sardines, <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hard2.gif" alt="" /> because an inconsiderate 18 year old <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/the_mack.gif" alt="" /> doesn't understand that they should give up their seat.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thebreaks.gif" alt="" /> I'm about to start calling them out on it.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspect5es.gif" alt="" /><br /><br />I know there are a grip of students/university employees/faculty here.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bf2e70d8.gif" alt="" /> Anyone else having this frustration?  <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hi.gif" alt="" /> Any freshmen asking dumb questions in your class O-Dub?  :5pager:<br /><br />P.S. - The Black Student Union<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/emil.gif" alt="" /> meeting <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sn.gif" alt="" /> is going down the hall from where I'm working tonight,<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/know.gif" alt="" /><img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sn.gif" alt="" /> and it's refreshing to actually see Black students on campus. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/emil.gif" alt="" /> I finally, after two years have two Black professors<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ctix4ad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ctix4ad.gif" alt="" />, and it's great to be able to discuss race and racism with a teacher who understands and isn't scared of the issue. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cos3ve.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/know.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/headz.gif" alt="" /></blockquote>
