Mod AnnoucementšŸ—£ļø are YOU a Rutgers-Newark professor/staff?

2 Upvotes

If you're a professor, dean, academic advisor, or really just a staff member in general feel free to reach out to either me directly or modmail to receive a special "Rutgers Staff | (department)" or "Rutgers Professor | (department)" flair on your name. Only verified staff members will receive the flair, and to verify all I really need to see some kind of proof (portal image or your staff directory link).

And if you're a student feel free to assign yourself a flair with whichever school you're apart of. Theres also a grey customizable one for you to write anything you'd like.

Mod AnnoucementšŸ—£ļø Fall 2026 Important Info

30 Upvotes

Hello everyone! Hope you all had a great summer break, heres some important info for the next semester:

  • Semester Begins on September 1st (This tuesday)
  • Labor day is on monday September 7th, and the school alongside the offices will be closed
  • September 10th (14th for grad students) will be the LAST day to add/drop a class without getting a "W" grade
  • September 30th will be the LAST day to waive the school insurance
  • October 26th is the LAST day to drop a class with getting a "W" grade, more info below
  • Thanksgiving break will be from thursday November 26th - sunday November 29th
  • Registration for Spring 2027 will begin on November 9th, I'll make a separate post about that when the time comes.
  • Fall classes end on December 10th
  • Reading days are from December 11th - December 14th
  • Fall Final Exams will be from December 15th - December 22nd

For withdrawing from the semester/school:

  • September 1st - September 14th: 100% refund
  • September 15th - September 28th: 80% refund
  • September 29th - October 12th: 60% refund
  • October 13th - October 26th: 40% refund
  • December 14th will be the ABSOLUTE last day to withdraw fully from the semester with 0% refund

If you withdraw from a class after the 10th(or 14th if you're a grad student) but before October 26th, you will get a "W" grade for the course. In my personal expierence if you feel like you are going to fail a course it is a MUCH better option to drop it and take it either in the summer or spring.

If you have any questions about anything in this post or just in general about the school feel free to ask it below in the comments, there is an RBS dean that's pretty active in the subreddit and answers questions. There might be more staff too or students who can help you out.

Good luck guys! Let's all get these A's

My laptop’s not connecting to RUSecure, which would be fine, except it’s also not connecting to eduroam. Which would be fine, except the computers at the library are ALSO not connecting to the ethernet. Did anyone get an email about this, or something? I’ve checked mine, I’ve got nothing.

Why’re gay guys like this

3 Upvotes

So I’m a junior and I’ve never been in a relationship before so I starting using Hinge and Tinder and I’ve been on multiple dates with guys over the summer but none of them worked out either because there wasn’t mutual attraction or they’d be too busy to meet again and so it would fizzle out.

When I came back on campus I decided to become more aggressive since I wasn’t finding anyone really on Hinge and Tinder so I used Grindr and I did find multiple Rutgers guys on there but most of them who said they’re open to more really weren’t and I just got rejected by another guy today who said he’s not looking for a relationship right now even though he told me he was open to it.

Like genuinely I wanna ask why gay guys are like this and why is it impossible for me to find anyone who’s actually looking for a relationship? I see so many couples in college and the whole ā€œI don’t have enough timeā€ is bs because when you start working I guarantee you’ll be even more busy with life but yet people find time to date, get married, have kids, etc

Be ware of this email, it’s a complete scam. I’m in need of FA, so I got my hopes up until i realized it was sent (and needs an email sent to) by a gmail account. Do not send these people any of your information. These people are genuinely scum of the earth
