2A-Bug List

    1. There is always medium to heavy traffic around the afternoon on any street  
      •  It's a college town so they are a lot of students driving around and also adults driving back from work.
    2. The blinds don't fully cover the window allowing light to come into the room.
      • There is a small crack between the blinds that allow light to come in and maybe was cheaper than curtains.
    3. Elevators sometimes don't work in Beaty.
      • They people won't know its working until it breaks down and since it's constantly being used they can't check up on it all the time.
    4. Student Rec is always crowded around 12 pm.
      • As students have later classes it's probably more ideal to workout early so they can have time at night to study and do homework.
    5. SNAP starts at 6:30 pm and not earlier
      • It's a nightly safety and transportation service so it would make sense they do it at night since that's when it gets dark out and possibly dangerous to walk home by themselves at that time.
    6. The bathrooms at bars or clubs are disgusting
      • Since they are always lines for the bathrooms or there's a big amount inside they don't have time to clean it during the hours they are open.
    7. I have to pay to cancel my uber even if I just ordered it
      • They account for the driver having to start driving in the direction of where the pickup location was set before it was canceled.
    8. Too many people handing things at Turlington
      • It's the place with most traffic so if someone wanted to spread information to the most people it would be ideal to set up there and promote whatever they do.
    9. The lines for food at Hub are crowded especially around 12
      • Since the Hub is in the center of campus and people will be going in between class or before class to get food that would explain the crowding.
    10. SNAP sometimes takes a long time to get to their destination
      • They probably don't have a lot of cars since they only cover the UF campus and due to the number of people ordering and driving them there, it would take a while to get to destinations.
    11. The sidewalks are cracked or uneven in many places around UF and it's difficult to skateboard around campus without falling.
      • It probably costs a lot of money to fix the sidewalks and it would disrupt walking traffic as people would have to find different routes.
    12. Student Rec doesn't have enough equipment for the number of people that go there.
      • Due to the amount of limited space, they couldn't place a lot of equipment in such a confined space.
    13. Sometimes there aren't enough seats in a class.
      • Due to the number of limited spaces in classes, they won't have enough seats for everyone especially if they add more spots for people that need the class.
    14. Not able to start LAN servers for games on school wifi
      • It's probably a safety issue since if you start it then anyone would be able to join and it might cause problems.
    15. TA office hours are during class hours so its impossible to go unless you skip class
      • TA's probably have certain hours due to the classes they have so they probably have to find a time when they're free.
    16. They closed the road next Reitz Union North Lawn and it takes me longer to go to class since I have to take a different route
      • They're making the new engineering building and they have to make new walkways to the building and close of areas for the construction equipment to come in.
    17. The swimming pool at Broward is closed for Spring
      • Due to the weather conditions and it being cold out, they close since the water would be too cold.
    18. Sometimes the food at Broward isn't that great
      • Since they have to make food in bulk they probably choose quantity over quantity
    19. Having early classes can make us lose sleep due to waking up early.
      • The amount of work for classes can be a lot so having to stay up nights doing homework can take a toll on someone especially if they don't do homework during the day
    20. The basketball courts at broward close at 9 when the gym closes at 10.
      • It probably costs more to keep the lights on for another hour when not that many people will be at the courts around that time.
Reflection: I had challenges coming up with the list since I had to think of stuff that first comes up in my mind and then after I was stuck. Then I had to think more in depth of everything I did that could be a bother or a slight inconvenience to me so thinking of the rest took up some time. I didn't find it that difficult it was just a little hard at the end trying to think of the rest of the bugs since i hard to think hard about what i did everyday and where i went and what i saw.

  1. I was not blown away by the post as I believe many issues were restated. I think if you took a bit more time to think of problems, it would have come to you. Some topics were so vague, it was difficult to get into them, but I respect that these issues may bug you and it is fair to share them. I do agree that the student recreation facilities can continue to grow and provide additional equipment for the students. The student body is growing, so the facilities should follow. Also, the issues with the elevators in the dormitory must be of great annoyance as this building is unusually tall for campus and the last thing you want to do after walking around campus all day is to climb many stairs to your room. In the future, I would recommend conducting a quick proofread before submission. Little mistakes may be distracting to the reader and take away from the point you are attempting to make.
    I wish you a successful semester.
