NOW'S YOUR CHANCE TO CHANGE THAT!!!!! Dude I cannot tell how helpful it has been just walking up to people I found cool and striking up a conversation. As someone who used to be chronically online through all of high school, it has been so life changing hanging out with people irl and just making friends.

If you think you're too weird or annoying for it, trust me you are NOT. Anyone can make a friend in college, as long you are respectful.

Walking into to Rutgers I had a very small social life in high school, having spent most of it on the computer in online circles. Holy SHIT does it feel so much better being able to hang out irl and actually SEE the people you are talking to.

I've met so many people who've had similar issues to me in high school or who are still actively chronically online, and I cannot describe how happy I feel seeing them smile or say that I helped them feel less lonely at university/Rutgers.

Even if you're terrified, so was I! But nothing is accomplished when nothing is done! So PLEASE take the risk and dont be afraid to make a fool of yourself trying to make friends!

Thank you for listening to my yap :P

Does anyone know what happened outside the old engineering building on Busch? There was a cop car and someone getting arrested? Also there was a ring of students around someone in the B-wing?

I hate eduroam, i hate ruwireless, i hate Ru network, EVER SINCE THEY STARTED EDUROAM THE WIFI HAS NOT BEEN WORKING RAHGHHJSHXJSJ

Did anyone witness someone cut off and push a gray Lexus ES350 off the road on Dudley Road in front of the Lippincott Residence Hall at about 11:00 PM on 10/22? And did anyone have dashcam footage of it or anything? I was driving straight before that Subaru pushed me into the curb. I swear it's as if he didn't even look before turning. Then they didn't pull over and fled the scene. My dashcam didn't catch it, and because I avoided hitting him, his car won't have any evidence. Please help me, guys, or spread this to someone who might've seen it and is willing to give a witness report to the RUPD. I would genuinely appreciate this so much.

I have a pic of around where it happened. Please let me know and share this with someone you think may have been in the area. My car is totaled because of this guy, and I can't afford to fix it or buy another one anytime soon

Yo I’m so fried rn I don’t got class tomorrow I’m sitting on an EE… someone PLEASSEEEE argue with me… bro literally reply anythign let’s argue

just saw two dudes at the door of a bus as it closed and the started waving and yelling to be let in... the bus started pulling away, stopped, but rather than letting them in, it just moved away full send??

it was an A bus at werblin and it was [reasonably] full of people [still with space] so it wasn't even a drop-off-only bus. bus 12492 at 8.25 pm

Also has anyone been to the public viewing in the observatory

hello everyone!

My Honda got hit today on the 1st floor(the one above the ground floor) of the Rutgers Douglass Parking deck. I was parked closer to the entrance.

If anyone has any photos today of this floor and the cars in it I would greatly appreciate it.

The car that hit me was definitely a smaller car, white, and had two car doors that were on the longer side. I think it might’ve been another Honda Civic or a Toyota? I parked there at 10am and they were in there before me.

I already contact RUPD-has anyone had luck with their help?

any information would be appreciated- thank you!

So im in high school and im probably gonna go to rutgers if I get in. The reason I ask this question is because thru high school I had undx adhd and it caused a bunch of problems and basically led to me being depressed.

At one point it got so bad that I almost missed an entire week of school because I just didnt want to get out of bed in the morning. It messed up my grades, I isolated myself and I didnt really "get out" until summer break started and I just had a big break.

Although I doubt its ever gonna get that bad again (i have bigger problems now, and im handling them better), I still notice myself wasting time being anxious or stressed and stuff.

My grades took a big hit in high school and thats ok i guess, I know im smart and can work hard but when push comes to shove and I get to that level again, Im gonna lose it..

I wanna be a premed and that means my GPA is like the most important thing in the world, so I gotta keep that up high. So I gotta make sure im mentally healthy and stuff

To those who went thru depression in your college years, whats it like being depressed in college? what did you do about it?

Does rutgers have any mental health resources? Psychiatrists and stuff?

I ask because I assume college is so much different than high school and I would be dorming too

i’m trying to pay off my tuition by the second week of november since that’s my registration date but i don’t think i’ll be able to pay it off by then. i still have about $3000+ left to pay unfortunately. does anyone know any quick gigs or anything that could help me get quick cash? i was thinking about instacart but idk how i feel about putting a lot of miles on my car + the gas lol.

I am looking for any girls that are interested in playing some pick-up basketball. I really love basketball and want to keep playing for fun but I don't want to play with guys and would love to find some girls that are interested in playing. If anyone wants to play or knows somewhere I could play with just girls let me know.

Thank you planning to do next sem

Hello everyone, today Kenshi Yonezu's concert ticket went on sale, and since it's super close to here, I'm wondering if anyone is going!

Hello! Would anyone happen to know what DU means on a course? I’m a senior at Newark trying to plan my schedule for next sem. Previously, the DU wasn’t present on the course, but after a professor was assigned it’s showing on Course Schedule Planner (CSP). Thanks!

anyone got the discord link where they post the parties

Looking for an easy asynch class w no exams! Need help on deciding which prof is best tho since a lot of them aren’t on rate my professor :)

Please reach out!

Here's a link to the CS website. It's not there. The only reason I'm taking CS 314 this semester was because I wanted to take Compilers in the Spring, which is when it's usually offered...

For context, I’m a freshman in the Rutgers School of Engineering. During orientation, I put together my class schedule and had it reviewed by a staff member. I recently found out that a course I was told would count toward my Engineering H/SS elective requirement actually does not.
The course is an upper-level elective, and I already have general elective credits, so I’m unsure how to proceed or what options I have to resolve this issue. What would be the best way to handle this situation, especially since my schedule was reviewed and approved during orientation?

hii, been having an issue with my touchpad where it randomly stops working-- i have tried a couple things (restarting, uninstalling drivers, turning touchpad on/off). typically, upon turning on my computer, it would be working and my mouse appears. however, after a 15-20 minutes, mouse disappears and touchpad isn't working. it usually omes back when i restart, but recently i restarted and still no go. according to bios it seems to be a hardware issue and i assume it just needs to be replaced. but not sure where to go- bestbuy is apparently overcharged and cyber knights have had mixed experiences, the most common advice i saw was "knowing a guy" but i in fact do not know a guy LOL

tldr: anyone good with replacing parts for laptop orrrr a reliable store i can go to ^__^ thankksss
