Hey everyone, my name is Caitlin. I don't know how far this post is going to go, however. I would love your input on what I documented down. What are your thoughts, feelings, opinions, and concerns? Does anyone notice or feel an energetic shift recently on how we feel about our medical diagnosis's today or is it just me?

“Nowadays, it seems like everybody globally now wants to self-diagnose or label themselves to be apart of The Autism Spectrum. Reason why that is? I have no idea but I can have a few ideas in mind on why that’s potentially happening.

Coming from an actual person who actually has been diagnosed to be on the autism spectrum at an early age (Pervasive Developmental Disorder). It seems to me that I have been sensing and noticing some details, patterns, and connections that link up and connect with each other that others don’t seem to realize or see yet.

Autism Spectrum Disorder is Rett Syndrome, Aspergers Syndrome, Childhood Disintegrative Disorder, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder. Now Autism Spectrum Disorder is starting to become “Neurodiversity.”

The Autism Spectrum would now considered to be related with Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Anxiety, Tourette’s Syndrome, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Depression, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), and so much more for example.

The DSM has been continuing on with their research about Autism Spectrum Disorder. It seems to me that they continue to learn and find ways to reclassify their patient’s medical historical records without giving them notice or warning.

This raises questions about how individuals are informed about changes in diagnostic terminology, how their original diagnoses and developmental histories are preserved, and how these changes may affect their understanding of their own identities.

People who were diagnosed under older diagnostic classifications deserve to have their original medical history acknowledged and explained rather than having their experiences reduced to a newer label without context.

At the same time, self-identification, self-diagnosis, and a formal clinical diagnosis are not necessarily the same thing. I believe it is important to approach these discussions with curiosity, accuracy, and respect while examining the reasons more people are identifying with neurodivergence today.”

Hey. I’m currently writing a story on ICE activity in New Brunswick and I’m trying to see if anyone is willing to chat and answer a few questions. Obviously if you prefer you can stay anonymous. So yea def reach out if you’ve had experience with ICE in anyway, whether you’ve been to a protest, have witnessed something, or if even if you want to share how it is impacting you.

As a junior, can an RBS-New Brunswick student register for a winter session course at Rutgers Business School Newark? If so, how can I get it approved?

Because the Newark Project Management professor is rated much better than the NB professor

Hi, I'm looking for a roomate for my double from January-July 2027 in an all female house. House has 2 bathrooms and in unit washer/dryer. The house is a little-off campus (Barlett street) and is only a 3 minute walk from the College Ave Student Center. All the girls in the house are sweet and responsible students. Let me know if ur interested!

In 1999, I'm assuming based on what someone said to one of my previous posts that the university started to provide the landlines and connections themselves and charged a fee for it instead of students paying Bell Atlantic.

Or did every dorm room have one landline provided by Rutgers and people just paid for the phone connection until 1999 after which Rutgers also gave the phone connections?

guys how bad was it… i genuinely don’t know how to study like ive read the study guide but all the information is like going in and out

Realistically what are my chances, i currently have a 3.2 and I've been raising it but I still have this entire fall and next spring before i transfer. Also, generally when do you hear back for the following fall? (I applied a week ago for fall 27).

Hey! My name is Hisham and I’m a Rutgers student-athlete currently working on a project proposal for a student-athlete mental health program at Rutgers.

I got this email today regarding closure of my account if I didnt fill it in on time. I have never recieved any email like this before and when I opened the google form it was asking a lot of odd questions. Should I ignore this?

deadass no love into making the food. Literally just thrown together sloppily.

We just had the midterm today and I felt so lost. I did all the homework problems and practice tests a couple times to study, but no matter what I do I always feel blindsided in that class.

At this point, I’m hoping I got a 50 on the midterm. Not impossible to recover from, esp with the class curve, but not great.

Any advice?

Yo genuinely why tf has the WiFi here went from being normal to complete ass twice this week?

It was working fine today and then it went down for a period and I came back on just fine but now it’s not working and it looks like it’s only me. It says “connected” and “limited compatibility”. But on my WiFi signal it’s the grayed out with a “!” On it. Any help?? I already deleted and reinstalled eduroam

Is anyone else having issues with the internet currently?

someone left their key here, hope you find it!

Hey guys, so on the 19th I have my first Marco test with goldhammer. I found this Quizlet online. Could anyone confirm if this information is worth memorizing and if most of it will be on the first test? Thanks!

I want to but I don’t want to be the only one

Just passed a suicide note attached to a professor's door. I don't know who needs to hear this but please don't end it over this. things will get better I promise. don't do this.

Okay so I just took my midterm 1 exam for Calculus, anyways my professor wasn’t doing the seating of every other one, and instead he told us to all sit at the front, and the back rows were empty, anyways my row was fully empty with me and maybe like 2 people who were really spread out, this girl comes in, sits directly next to me, keep in mind only 3 people including me were in the row so the seats there were so much room. She sits next to me, and at first I was like “what ever more people are going to fill up the seats” which did happen but the seats next to here which were 3 were empty. Meaning she could have moved.

Throughout the exam I kept seeing her glance over at my paper and also I had no clue what I was doing so she’s going to fail either way.

Anyways the professor comes around takes a look at my exam version and her exam version and they were both the same. He let us finish the exam he didn’t say anything. When I go and put my exam to turn it in he puts it away from the rest of the piles and not in the pile d. At first I’m a bit skeptical right so I hang by the class untill it’s just a few more people in the room. He accused me of cheating, said I was helping someone else cheat. So I look at the pile and it’s just my paper there and not the other girls. So I’m like thinking to myself why is hers not there. Turns out she said I was looking at her paper.

How cooked am I? It’s a her word against mine. I told the professor that I didn’t do good in the exam and in my recitation quizzes so if I did cheat on this exam I would have gotten a 100 which would not accurately represent the ones in my recitation which would mean I definitely cheated however that’s not the case , I told him I struggled taking this exam.

Anyone ever been accused of cheating?

Edit: thank you everyone for your help even Dr G commented, I talked to my professor all is good, my exam is not being voided and I don’t have to retake the exam, I always attend lectures, office hours and recitations so he had a better understanding of my plea versus the girl. So yay no longer have to retake it.
