These are prevalent on campus but unfortunately, in casual sexual relationships women fail to achieve tend to beneft one partner over the other. Ladies, if orgasm most of the time, even with long-term it wasn’t obvious in the moment, you probably did hookup partners, likely because of the understood not get the same sexual attention you gave to your emphasis on male pleasure. In my humble opinion, partner and are far more likely to face social costs for you deserve to orgasm, or at least be given reciprocal your engagement in casual sex. While men propagate sexual attention, during casual sex. While women many of the negative aspects of hookups — less are most likely falling into subconscious biases pleasure, objectifcation, and slut-shaming — they during hookups that cause them to avoid speaking up aren’t the only ones who can change their behavior about their sexual wants and needs, this just makes to make casual sex more respectful, liberating, and it more important that women voice their desires; enjoyable for women. So, women of UC San Diego, by not speaking up, you’re subconsciously feeding if you are going to engage in casual sex, I recommend into dangerous stereotypes about female sexual you do a couple of things to give yourself (and other subservience and — tragically — missing out on women) a better experience, sexually, and socially. better sex.

In my experience, upon the belief that a woman’s sexual role is purely female college students mostly believe they are to please the man in hookups, they are reinforcing supportive of women’s sexual freedom and equality; that their objectifcation and lack of similar sexual we like to think times have changed. In reality, attention during hookups is OK.

There was an app designed to indicate border wait time, a border crossing app, but turns out it wasn’t very accurate because so many people queued up. I also have videos of how long the line was [in] Otay [Mesa] — we were just driving, and the line, it was maybe like from [RIMAC] all the way down to Revelle — that’s how long it was. And that’s for one crosspoint. It’s supposed to be easily done.” She personally saw the caravan when it was close to the border. “I saw [the people in the caravan] were living in tents close to the border,” she said, describing her glimpse of the migrant caravan. “We saw the narrow street filled with people — it was just not ending. That wasn’t even all of them. There were more in the stadium. A lot of people say a picture is worth a thousand words, but actually seeing it is different. … To this day, I’m still processing what’s happening, you know what I mean? On the other side, they’re people just like you and me. And is it wrong for them to try to seek a better life? No, it’s not. So is it wrong for the government to try to regulate? I can’t say it’s wrong, but it’s not doing it in the right way.” Zhang, an international student from China, brings a unique perspective to the topic of immigration and views it as a broader international issue as opposed to a bipartisan Democratic or Republican one. Her experience at the border did not scare her because she had experienced something similar before. When she was traveling as a 14 year old, her flight had a layover in Egypt, coincidentally right as the Arab Spring began. The airport shut down, and she was in the airport for a week without food until the Chinese government sent a refugee airplane. “I knew the Chinese government was working on it — my country was going to come for me anyways,” she said, drawing a comparison between her experience and the current situation at the border. “There was a certain level of reassurance that I was going to get home and that there was a place called home. … Most people [were] hosted at the stadium, but it was so overpopulated that most people were on the streets, in tents. I couldn’t help but think how people — let’s say kids in that situation — don’t have food, are in poor sanitation. The biggest difference between my 14-year-old self and them is not knowing where home is. Most of them can’t go home because of violence — especially women experiencing gendered violence.” In addition to the difficult conditions migrants face and go through, they are often poorly received by local people, especially in Mexico. “There’s the fact that Mexican people didn’t like them there — I was actually talking to the Uber driver there, and I asked him about it. He was like, ‘We don’t like them here. We don’t want them. They’re dirtying up the city.’ And I couldn’t help but think how this is the same narrative: Americans don’t want Mexicans and then Mexicans don’t want Hondurans, or wherever anyone in the caravan [is] from. They can’t go home, and they’re certainly not welcome in the U.S. … so I’m wondering, what’s the future for them?” Despite UCSD being so close to the border, it remains an overly idealistic bubble isolated from many of the world’s greater problems. Zhang, however, hopes that UCSD students become more aware of their proximity to some of the world’s most impactful current events, and she encourages them to volunteer or get involved at the border. Students can participate in desert water drops along migrant crossing routes by volunteering with the nonprofit organization Border Angels, or participate in Yoga by the Border, as Zhang did herself. “When you hear about it on the news, you don’t think it’s real — you think it’s far away,” Zhang said. “Experiencing it would make you feel more connected to the community. We are so close to the border. It’s only 25 minutes away. It’s so bizarre to think about us sitting here, talking about it, and there are people, another kid, similar to our age.” She trailed off and then paused for a moment. “It’s bizarre to think how such different lives could happen at the same time.”

The Benefits of Social Media for College Students

by Hakyung Yun // Lifestyle Staff Writer

y the time I started college, I debated whether or not to keep my social media accounts since I was hardly active. However, I soon discovered that social media can actually be a rather important resource for university students. Outside of maintaining one’s online presence, social media is a great way for college students to form a sense of community, receive campus news, learn Babout fantastic career opportunities, and network with fellow peers and potential employers. With over 30,000 undergraduate students, UC San Diego’s enormous campus can make it difficult for people to meet and build meaningful relationships. Social media can help facilitate these interactions. Dozens of UCSD-related groups exist on Facebook, including the popular “UCSD Memes for Sleep Deprived Teens,” “UCSD Confessions Addicts,” and “Overheard at UCSD.” These platforms create a sense of kinship and camaraderie among their members, striving to unite a vast and seemingly discrete student population. We can all laugh and cry together about finals, raccoons, and the school’s permanent parking plight in an easily accessible shared space. It helps us remember that we are all surviving (or sinking) in the same boat. Students can also connect with the school via its Snapchat. These platforms help loop me in on current campus events and trends in a way that complements school-issued email updates. At the same time, subgroups such as UCSD organizations, colleges, majors, classes, and even dormitory buildings have their own social media platforms as well, digitally cultivating smaller communities within the university. As a communication major, I follow the UCSD Undergraduate Communication Society’s Facebook page to learn about various activities and opportunities related to my major. It was actually through this page where I learned about the UCSD Guardian’s recruitment opportunities. I also learned about a networking event with business professionals from various communication-related fields. That experience served as a wake-up call, and I became much more serious about pursuing my professional future. Back when I lived on campus, my dorm’s Facebook group would keep me updated on both building and campus-related activities, as well as open up communication with the Resident Assistants. Aside from these fun social groups, other pages serve as useful tools for navigating university life. For example, students are constantly selling or buying anything from textbooks to Hydro Flasks on the “UCSD Free and For Sale” page. The “Housing – UCFinder” page is incredibly useful for students seeking off-campus housing or roommates. I found my current housemates through this platform. For those who are reluctant to cough up hundreds of dollars on textbooks, the “UCSD Textbook PDF Sharing” page offers cost-free alternatives. Another helpful page is “Jobs & Internships,” an open Facebook group within UCSD where students share job and internship opportunities with one another. Many lab position openings are especially advertised on this platform. Access to all of these pages obviously require a Facebook account, which is why I wound up keeping mine. Along with enhancing the college experience, social media can also help foster professional success. It’s becoming increasingly important to cultivate one’s digital presence in terms of networking and forging career paths. After all, how will potential employers learn about who you are beyond your resume and cover letter? Granted, job interviews function to satisfy that curiosity, but securing those is a challenge in and of itself. Developing your personal brand through online networking and social media can help you cross that chasm. For example, I resisted making a LinkedIn account for the longest time, believing that it wasn’t necessary. However, I eventually learned that even just having an account, as inactive and bare as your profile may be, boosts your professional image and chances of employment that much more. Just as businesses who want to stay current establish an online presence, so must we as college students preparing to plunge into the workforce because we, too, are ultimately “products” on the market, with our potential employers as our customers. Social media offers a plethora of benefits ranging from alleviating loneliness to unearthing various opportunities. I’m glad that I kept my social media, even if I am not always heavily engaged. Even if you only participate by quietly observing, social media can definitely enrich your college experience.
