PPS. SJActress: Yes, not just in the Uni world either. My sim at home, say Jim, will click on his own assigned bed and get "Sleep in Jim's bed".
I don't have University, but I get same thing. Sim Rho="sleep in Rho's bed"
That's not what I'm saying. It's a roommate I don't control, so I was using, say, Jim, to click on Jane's bed to check and make sure it was assigned to Jane, and it was. However, upon re-assigning it to Jane, the game seems to think that "Jane" and "Jane" are two different people, as opposed to the same one, which is why Jane wasn't sleeping in her available bed.

I noticed that if she has to go to classes and game prompts the action in her queue, her needs will remain static until after she has attended classes.
I'm pretty sure this is intended behavior, so Sims don't pee themselves or starve to death during lectures. I'm not sure why she'd still be hungry after finishing eating, though.
virgali:
I think something the game does, glitches either the sim, the bed or both. This problem first arose when sims would use Simport to go to someone else's game. Upon return, their beds wouldn't recognise the sims as the same person anymore. Not sure what action on the Uni campus would have the same effect though.

Maybe it is, although I have my doubts. The problem is that her needs go static as soon as the icon pops up in her queue. So no matter what I had queued up at the time, it won't have any effect. Let's say she had to eat, use the toilet and shower. She just finished eating and is on her way to the toilet. The class icon pops up. She will go to the toilet and shower but her bladder will not empty and her hygiene bar won't go up. Let's say the classes icon pops up while she's eating. Then her hunger bar won't fill either. As far as I know this only affects this particular sim too.
So I basically have to wake her up extra early and push her to fill her needs bar before the the game prompts her to go to class. i don't recall ever having this problem with her older brother.

Gotcha, SJ.

Played University for the first time today and ran into the same problem. I had two active sims and it happened for both of them, when the time to go to class came, all their motives froze. I cancelled the "go to class" interaction for one of them and tried to have him eat again but he still wouldn't gain hunger. I even tried to move his hunger motive up with testingcheats enabled but I couldn't. I could only drag motives up/down again after the class was over, at 10 am.
Madame Mim:
Yep. Seems to be standard behaviour with the locked motives. I took two Sims through Uni successfully and then when one of those Sims and her new husband tried to go back (he was going to finish his first degree, she was going to start her third) the game would crashe before Uni could load. Now I simply cheat them a degree - there is nothing about the campus that I am going to miss all that much - and it makes it a lot easier to keep the neighbourhood going when you play primarily one family but wish to keep their contemporaries actually contemporary.
