I like the convenience of this computer lab since the HSS building is right across from here. One of my classmates in my History 428 sent me class notes via email but I couldn't open the file on my computer, then I thought the computer labs at school has Microsoft Office 2007 and this is when I started coming here. This computer lab consists of Room A, B and C so there are plenty of computers to use. I don't even have to walk far to look for a computer lab on campus. I'll definitely be coming in here again whenever I have any homework assignments that require me to use Microsoft Word and Excel 2007. There are times when the noise level will get annoying so gear up with earphones. Have homework assignments to complete using Microsoft Word and Excel 2007?

I wished I knew about this place earlier so I wouldn't have to go all the way to the Annex even though there are other computer labs on campus. Bring some headphones too if you don't wanna hear people around you because it does get annoying at times.

My experience with the University of California, Berkeley Alumni House was in the Autumn 2015…read moresemester for a department holiday party called Santa Barbara's Day. It was my first, and not last, time attending the celebration and in 2015 it was held here. Some of my fellow classmates (PhD program) and I arrived as early as we could for preparations. As first years in the PhD program we were instructed to perform a skit. We chose a game show theme with my officemate, Alex C., in the role of game show host. We needed space for our performance, so arriving early we could figure things out. There were tables with chairs for eating, a buffet area, and an alcohol bar. Oddly, the cost of alcohol was included for each of us, including people like me who did not drink. I felt shamed for being of part Native American (Lakota and Duwamish) ancestry. Others who drank were happy. We utilized the entryway, space by the buffet area, and the space inside the entryway (in the main room) for the performance. At the time we had some space critiques, however the following year (2016) where the event was held was less versatile in regards to a skit - so we were hindsight appreciative even if not so at the time of our performance. Spacing between the tables was a little tight. Of his own initiative, my advisor, Burkhard M., served as the photographer of the event. He had enough space to walk between and around the tables to get some good shots. Temperature wise, how hot it was fluctuated. Lighting was not overly bright. We did not really figure out a spotlight lighting situation for the skit. Building and event workers were upbeat and conversational throughout the event. Parking most of us did not figure out, instead opting to walk/take the bus or carpool with people beyond our year.

When I was a reader (grader) at UC Berkeley, the classes I read for were always English classes…read more They may have been cross-listed with other departments (history, disability studies, religious studies, ethnic studies, etc.); but I worked for the English Department, and these were English classes. Eventually, most of those classes (I read for one or two classes at a time between 2005 and 2013) were held in Wheeler Hall, which is the English Department's building, but especially early on, the classes were all over campus, from Northgate Hall to the Social Sciences Building (then named Barrows Hall) to Physics North (then named North Le Conte Hall) to McCone Hall. Before I ever worked in McCone, I used to take what I thought was a shortcut through McCone to get to Northgate. It didn't end up saving me any time, but I'm really glad I did that while exploring campus early on, because I used to pass right through the security gates of the Earth Sciences & Map Library. Eventually, when my class was in McCone (the only time I ever read for a class in that building), I actually spent time in the library. I wasn't an earth-science graduate student and wasn't even a UC Berkeley student. I'm sure as a university employee, I had some library borrowing privileges, but I never looked into them. And I rarely carried my employee ID with me, so there were some libraries on campus I couldn't even get into, let alone borrow from. This library is perfect for studying and getting work done. I spent quite a bit of time here, both reading and grading, and I don't think I ever saw more than three other people at a time using the tables here. There are pretty cool maps here, and once, there were a couple of grad students examining one at a table just as I was about to leave. I made a comment about the strangeness of the map, and they were very nice and explained what they were studying and why the woman needed to have a partial copy of the map made for a paper she was working on. All way above my comprehension in a subject I know nothing about, but fascinating nonetheless. And I love maps. I normally conducted my office hours in Wheeler Hall, but they were constantly moving which room we could use while they remodeled rooms, so sometimes, we had very cramped, unappealing spaces. One semester, there were two wheelchair users in my class, so in addition to doing office hours in Wheeler, I also held them occasionally in an accessible cafe off campus and in the Earth Sciences & Map Library's group room. They were very kind about allowing me to make regular reservations without my employee ID and without even a berkeley.edu email address. (I technically had one, but I never set it up; I had all my students use my personal email address for all communications.) It's a small library on the first floor of a tall building. It doesn't have the best atmosphere, but it's not awful either. It's quiet and very clean. I don't think there are bathrooms on the first floor, so if you do spend some time here, you'll probably be going upstairs occasionally. If you time it right and if you know where to look, you can catch the sunset directly behind the Golden Gate Bridge from a particular balcony on a particular floor. Don't you want to visit now? You don't need any form of ID to entire the library, so it's technically open to the public, but I don't know what the policy on handling accessible materials is. It's all earth-science and topography specific, so I never looked at a book from the stacks, let alone took one out to read.

When I worked in McCone Hall (2015 to 2019, inclusive) my offices moved around (1st, 4th, 2nd…read morefloors). Below the first floor was a ground or basement level which housed the Earth Science and Maps Library. I frequented this library for looking at books and maps, utilizing the table work spaces, picking up books I had put on hold, and using the computer work spaces including the scanner and printer area. As part of orientation into the PhD program in the Department of Earth and Planetary Science (same building), we attended an informational session held by the head librarian in a small room in the library. All of the workers were professional in my experience. Other libraries I went to on campus, such as Physics, Chemistry, and Doe, required identification checks for entrance, this library was one of the few where that was not the case. Though, I did have to procure my card for picking up holds. There was also a returns slot where we could return books without entering the library. As a graduate student we could keep books and fines would accrue if they were late. However, if we eventually returned the item, the fines would be forgiven. One fateful occasion, I got to find out if this was true. My life had been chaotic and I had a number of library books checked out. It had passed a timeframe where the fines continued to accrue, meaning a flat rate was applied to each book. The fines came in at over $1000 (USD). Looking everywhere, I found the books, and returned them to the returns slot. Sure enough, once returned the fines were forgiven. Only one problem, one book had not been returned. I searched again and found nothing, so I went to the desk/counter and inquired about what to do. I was instructed to contact/go to the corresponding home library of the missing book (Physics) to go through the replacement process. It was just the one book on geometric phases of matter I had to replace in my 4+ years as a student. One aspect of the library I thought was pretty cool: the stacks were movable. Each stack had a crank on the side and could be moved closer to or further away from other stack(s) to access books on different stacks/shelves.
