I’m so disappointed in UCF for not listening to the voice of their stakeholders/students.

Why does UCF pay so little for on-campus positions?

Paying $8.56 or $9 an hour for some of these positions is insulting. Unless they’re offering benefits or something that i’m not aware, I see very little incentive for students to work here. I’m surprised these guys haven’t kept up with the times.

This is random af, but what is the water hardness level of the UCF dorm showers?

My hair hasn’t had the same level of volume since I’ve stopped using those showers and I just wanna know 😭🤌🏻✨
