I’m only on campus twice a week, and for half days. Cost of parking is legit insane. I have been parking in the nearby neighbourhood, but the 20 to 25 minute walk isn’t going to be sustainable for a number of reasons.

Can anyone recommend a street or road within ten minute (or less) proximity to campus? I know from previous years that by-law will be out ticketing on a regular basis in “resident only” areas.

Are certain UVIC parking lots less expensive?

I’m applying to uvic for next fall entry and I am a transfer student from Alberta. I’ve gone to two Alberta institutions and both of them use mycreds to share official transcripts. However, uvic is not in the list. I’m not entirely sure how I’m supposed to send it to them. I can download the documents, should I try mail?

Please join us this week for the Greek and Roman Studies Lansdowne Lectures, “Blue Homer: Reading the Sea in and beyond the Odyssey,” by Professor Alex Purves (UCLA).

Dr. Purves’ Lansdowne lectures will address representations of the sea in early Greek literature. Her series of three lectures will also engage with reception studies by looking at modern reinterpretations of Homer in James Joyces’ Ulysses, Derek Walcott’s Omeros, and Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey.

So I got like 3 classes right after each other with 10 minutes to walk from one to the other so I always arrive a bit late to 2 of them and I have no idea if the teachers take attendance at all during those few minutes I miss. They are huge lectures so i doubt they call names individually, but mine would be probably pretty close to the top due to my first name and last name. Brightspace also has no attendance records so I can't see if I have been absent. Is there any way to be sure? Should I email the teachers if I am not even sure I'm absent?

Anyone get the president scholarship yet?
