Seeing pretty privilege in action during class

In one of my classes (smaller size so more intimate setting) the professor always greets the prettier girls/people in general when they walk in and say goodbye to them, but i’ve noticed that i’ve never been greeted by him before. i sit in the front everyday and participation is a big thing, i had my hand raised for a long time to answer a question and he picked multiple people around me, and chose girls who had already spoken before. i try not to take it personally but i am aware that i am an unattractive girl and i just hate that the difference in privilege shows even in my class. when he does choose me to speak he often brushes over my answer while he elaborates on other conventionally attractive people’s answers. i try so hard to be engaged in this class, but its really upsetting when i am overlooked due to my appearance.

Frustrated with apple pencil

I got the normal apple pencil to use for college paired with my ipad. I find that when i want to use it (knowing that it’s charged), it doesn’t write on my ipad. when this happens, the battery level doesn’t show up on my battery widget and the battery level doesn’t show in settings either. This annoys me because i have not used it enough for the pencil to be completely dead everytime, and then i can’t even check. i have to plug both devices together in order for the pencil to work. i’m very annoyed, has anyone else had this issue? i don’t want to have to play a game of luck when i want to take notes in my classes. i’d appreciate any assistance

would it be possible to not get approved for a double major?

really wanna declare a double major in bio and comm with bio as the primary. is a double major worth it? like for example even though bio would be my primary if i wanted a job in the comm field would my double major be helpful? or if i changed my mind could i drop bio and just have comm as my primary? #help

Requesting advice from pre-meds/med students

sorry if this isn’t a good place to ask. im on the pre med track and want to declare a major in PNB. (uprising sophomore in ACES). bio 1108 isn’t a requirement for the major, but i know that 2 semesters of general bio are required for med school. i’ve already taken bio 1107, but should i take 1108 or not? i’ve heard terrible things about the prof and i thought i could replace it with an upper level bio course?? please help!!!

Is it possible to add a second major in english as a sophomore?

For context, i’m a PNB major but i loveee english. Is it possible to do it without summer courses and graduating on time? On the uconn website it says a common double major for bio is english which intrigued me
