University of Michigan Class of 2010

[Broohaha]

ok really aggravated... i want to move in a week earlier than planned because i realized giving myself just 3 days to prepare prior to the start of orientation/classes is kind of dumb. i called to find out if i can use the gym and other UM facilities and they said yeah (you can actually get your ID card even if you arrive weeks in advance since youve already paid your deposit) BUT there's a fee to use the gym. i called the gym and they said it was $10 per day. now, depending on when our UM Law student access to the gym gets activated (first day of orientation? first day of classes?), i might have to end up paying $100 to use the gym for 10 days which kind of stinks considering how much i'm paying to go to school there...

anybody know if there's any way around paying this fee for those of us arriving a few days prior to orientation?

Do what I do and avoid gyms like the plague.  Problem solved!

I'm looking for advice and impressions. Does anybody know anything about Old West Side, near the new YMCA? What's the scoop on the neighborhood? Anything interesting in the area?

Jolie: Does this qualify as student ghetto?

GCoop: If you're around, I think I saw something about a map you'd made showing proximity to various points of interest? I'd love to have a look, if it's not too much trouble.

EDIT: It's a couple blocks NW of Leopold Bros. (Score!)

Does AA have any independent papers like Creative Loafing or CityPaper?

Current seems to be the closest to a listings type mag.

Detroit has some weekly magazines - MetroTimes comes to mind but there are others.  You can find them around A2 as well.

gengis, are you ready?! aaah.

sorry if it's been answered, but what's the deal w/ off-campus parking?

Get back to work Jolie =) 

No kidding!

PSA: Don't be a law student like me.  We've had 10 days to do this LR b.s. . . . more than enough time.  Sooo, why is Jolie sitting here on the eve of the last day, just now beginning the actual writing? 

(Don't answer that.)

If you actually got it finsihed, you are a better man than I.

um, ok, where is there a (soon to be) 2L that can be my role model (in school, jolie you'll always be mine in life)...i need a "super anal and always on top of things" 2L to aspire to be.
