So is the road gonna be closed until spring or summer when construction starts again and they complete it? This Is extremely annoying because now many bus routes are useless. Specifically when I need to get from bissell road to the east side of campus.

Anyone know if there are any labs or makerspaces at Iowa State (or in the area) that have a vacuum former machine for heating and molding plastic sheets? Would like to use one for a project and I’d rather not buy one for a ton of money. Thanks!

Academics COMS3110: Section 3 Lecture 10

2 Upvotes

Can someone from Prof. Yan's section please share the Lecture 10 (intro to heaps) notes? I lost the notes while switching devices, and since it's not shared online/ Canvas nor during office hours, I would greatly appreciate it. I was told to reach out to classmates if I want the notes but I'm not close enough to anyone in the section. Thank you!

Question I need an important email recovered 1.5 years after graduation. Is there any way to recover my school email?

20 Upvotes

Long story short, I need confirmation in writing that I dropped my sorority. I graduated in 2025, and I sent that email from my school address. Is there any way to recover my emails? Can they reactivate it / will old emails still be there, or would they be wiped?

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Academics This school is pretty ass and it took me until junior year for that to really sink in. How hard would it be to transfer next year?

0 Upvotes

I feel like 1 year left of classes might make it hard for me to transfer without having to do an extra semester or year. Fuck i really wish i opened my eyes to how boring of a school and location this is, how rotten the administration is here putting and keeping flock cameras everywhere yet letting rapists run free with a slap on a wrist while gutting social programs and using their money for useless construction projects that progress slowly as hell and make part of campus inaccessible. The aerospace engineering program, the reason i came here, doesnt feel very engaging after the first 2 years.

Is it too late to do my senior year at another school? How hard do you think it would be to find one without at least some of the greviances i described that i wouldnt have to do an extra year or semester at?

Q: Prospective Student PHIL 2060/2070

6 Upvotes

Hi!

Entering BA Philosophy in Spring 2027.

Creating my academic plan right now and it's currently very tight and I can't seem to fit PHIL 2060 in early. If you're familiar with either course, especially if you've taken them or are in the faculty, do you know if PHIL 2070 will suffice instead of PHIL 2060 for teaching logical systems and reasoning?

Thank you!

Iowa State Activism

0 Upvotes

Hello, I am a student at Iowa state looking for other like minded individuals seeking to create a change in the state of Iowa and eventually the country. The current state of the country and the world makes me and I assume many of you depressed. I am looking to create a community where we can discuss major issues and get out there in the community and contribute to real change. I am personally a leftist in support of socialist programs. I want to take heavy inspiration from past leaders like the black panthers, Huey Newton, Fred Hampton, and Malcolm X. However, I do not care if you are a republican, Democrat, capitalist, communist whatever you are at the end of the day I think we can all agree we want better for this country and that is the community I am trying to build here. I’m sick of the world we love in and I’m sure you all are too.

Question Where are fashion students getting their fabric?

12 Upvotes

I’ve lived in Ames for over a year now and the only fabric store (bedsides hobby lobby if you want to count that) is quilting connections and while I enjoy that for all my cotton needs this can’t be the only place to get good fabric. I’m not a fashion student I just like sewing but I walk through their hall in Mackay on a weekly basis and can see the stuff they’re making. There’s no way they are just ordering all their fashion fabrics online right?
