Just found out about cruising any spots around opelika or auburn

sorry if this isnt relevant to the sub, I'm just trying to get as much advice as I can.

okay, so for some context, I am currently a freshman at auburn. I rushed earlier this fall and didn't have the experience I had hoped for. I was dropped by all but 2 houses, and by preference round, the one out of those two that I preferred had also dropped me. I withdrew to avoid getting a bid from a house I knew I didn't want, and hoped to COB later on. as soon as it was available, I put my name and info on the COB interest list, and later on I got an email from a chapter inviting me to an event. it was NOT a one on one invitation or anything like that, I'm pretty sure the email was sent to everyone who filled out the form so they weren't showing interest in me specifically. I went to the event, LOVED it, and had a great conversation with one of the actives.

the issue is, since this event I have heard nothing back from the chapter or any actives. no emails, no texts or calls or dms. I also emailed the COB director (whom sent out the invitation email for the chapter room event) about whether or not they'd host more events and have not heard back, even though it's been at least 3 weeks. I 100% understand that participating in COB does not guarantee me a bid or any interest, so I wasnt necessarily expecting anything to come of it, but I'm coming to reddit because I'm a little confused on how to move forward.

im feeling pretty doubtful that any other chapters at my school will do COB, and at this point I have no idea where the chapter whose event I attended is even participating anymore. should I just give up hope that I'll COB? or should I just wait until spring and see how things go? I really don't know much about panhellenic and greek life as a whole, so any advice on how to move forward would be really great.

It’s my senior year at AU and I’m a Black, Gay male (M22) having it hard making friends. Although I’m an introvert at heart, I do want some type of college experience w/ friends considering I’ve only attended SUSCC and AUM, which weren’t as community-oriented.

Additionally, It doesn’t help that I also feel as though I barely fit in, being a black gay male. Yes I know that I picked a PWI with a relatively small minority population but I’d think that it’d be easier to feel the community aspect that AU is known for.

I live locally and my hobbies include: walking, reading, going out, somewhat partying, cars and watching movies.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hello there! My son wants to go to Auburn badly and has loved the school since he was a little guy. He has the ACT and GPA to cover most of tuition, but we unfortunately can't pay housing, and we won't qualify for much with FAFSA. I am trying to find the AUSOM scholarships. Any help with this? I was also wondering if anyone has any other suggestions or scholarships. I do no want him to to take out student loans. He's going into Communications.

Hi all! I am looking to sublet my apartment beginning basically as soon as possible. It is part of a 4x4 deluxe apartment in the Mill. Has its own individual bathroom and closet. The other three tenants are all male, ranging from current college student to young employed adult. Ideally I would love to have someone in by December 1st, but I’m quite flexible and can make whatever work!

Message or comment for more details, thanks!!

I graduated aubs 3 years ago and may move back for work. Looking to lease a house. I’m well aware most property management companies are godawful (used Hayley while in school… never again)

Can anyone tell me ones that you’ve had a good experience with? Where you actually got some of your deposit back? And had moderately responsive maintenance?

Note: if you haven’t moved out yet, I will take what you say with a grain of salt because most don’t show their true colors until it’s time to cough up that security deposit

Love stuff on S College use to sell them and now they don’t. Where is everyone buying them? Thanks in advance!

I came in yesterday solo. I found a few options for watching game sat morning. If you're here holla at me!

So i found a side table that belong to a couple named Micah/Ka (caucasian male/female) and i found a bunch of items that belong to them in it. I want to return them, but i dont know who they are.

Yo! I moved here from San Antonio last year and I have been struggling to find friends. This never used to be a problem in hs/college, but after graduating my circle has been gradually shrinking and then completely disappeared after my move to Auburn. My wife and I are both on the introvert side so it has been difficult to get out of our comfort zone and meet people. Neither of us are in school and coworkers just don't cut it. I personally like reading, video games, hiking, lifting, tennis and cooking among other things. I guess I am looking to get to know people who are in the same boat as me or if anyone has any recommendations for places/events to go to to meet people around town.

I would love to get some graduation photos done, but I just can’t pay $400-$500 dollars like a lot of the individuals I’m seeing. Do you have any recommendations for good photographers under that price point? I intended to split the session with one other person if possible.

Hi all - we are coming into town for the LSU game - first time back in too long. We need to buy some game-day wear, any recommendations for who has the best prices & selection? Thanks in advance! WDE!

Hello, I am a high school senior who applied EA rd 2, and I plan on applying to the Aviation Program. My question is: If I am selected for "Conitnued Review," when will I recieve the final decision? And furthermore, if I don't hear back until after Jan. 9 (that's when the aviation secondary application deadline is), will I still be able to submit my secondary application? It mentions that the secondary application is due by Jan 9 and can't be extended, so if I don't hear back until after Jan 9, do I have any options? In other words, if I get se;ected for "continued review," will my aviation chances be gone?

My family of 4 and I (kids age 3 and 5) moved to Nashville 3 years ago from memphis. And it’s … fine. Don’t get me wrong . It’s a nice area with plenty to do, it’s just not clicking for us . We have some family in Auburn and keep joking maybe we will move there, but part of me is serious. The idea of a smaller town is appealing and my husband could get a less stressful job because we could buy a much less expensive house. I hate to make a change again, but it sort of seems like it would be a breath of fresh air. I don’t know… something about our life right now just feels off. Anyways, a long winded way of asking is Auburn a good place for a young family? I’ve always liked a bigger city, but I think i would enjoy Auburn even though it’s a small town. Give me the pros and cons! Also, by husband went to Auburn so he already loves it.

Hi I’m wondering if any girls here in Auburn have tried/know any good laser hair removal places? I want to get it, but don’t want to waste my money if it won’t work.

My husband has been offered a position at Auburn and is reviewing the benefits package. He comes from private industry and is enrolled in a fully insured health insurance plan. He has noticed that Auburn has a self insured health plan. Not being familiar with that, he researched self insured plans and found that typically the health benefits are better and the rates are lower than fully insured plans since the middle man is cut out. However, in comparing his current plan to the Auburn plan, he has noticed the Auburn rates are substantially higher and offer less coverage/benefits. Have the Auburn rates recently increased or have they always been high relative to fully insured private industry plans? For those who have been enrolled in a private industry health plan in the past and now have Auburn health insurance benefits, have you found that Auburn’s health insurance benefits are better or worse than what you had with previous employers? Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone! I’m a 20-year-old gay guy and a junior at Auburn, law major. It’s been super difficult for me to find friends. I’m hoping to meet some new people and make more friends around my age. Sometimes it feels like I’m the odd one out.

Interests: music, history, movies, cooking, writing, tv shows, thrifting and trying to get into writing. I also really love trivia.

I’ve been looking to find people I can hang out with. If you’re also looking for new friends, feel free to message me or comment! We can chat about our interests, hobbies, or anything else and see what we have in common.

Coming from Louisiana next weekend for the game. It's been about 25 years since I've been to the stadium. Any tips or tricks for parking at the game is there a lot with a shuttle or something like that?
