Looking for a roommate for next year

5 Upvotes

Hey! Im a current Freshman trying to find housing off campus next year and need a roommate.

Im a guy to clarify. I either go to bed fairly early, or at least Im quiet enough to where you wouldnt notice even if I was up all night. Im very respectful in terms of inviting people over, Im not gonna throw a huge party or whatever without telling you. Im good at keeping things clean but I can be fairly disorganized, but if its a big deal I can try to keep on top of it more

Also to clarify, Im a music student, so if possible Id like to practice in my room. I play saxophone so it probably could be loud. It would only be during the day, never late at night, and ofc Id be respectful when I did it as well, but I would need to do it.

For a roommate, to me the biggest things that are important to me is just being respectful about noise at night and inviting people over. Im pretty chill and dont care if youre loud during the day or have a friend over, but Id rather not like have a party happen while Im gone and I dont know about it, I think having a heads up is totally fair.

Otherwise, I have no real preferences for a roommate. I dont even care if youre messy as long as it stays in your room and youre more on top of it in the shared spaces

If anyone is interested, hmu!

TURN OFF THE STADIUM LIGHTS AT NIGHT. (rant, but i'm justified saying this.)

55 Upvotes

There is NO fucking POINT to be having the lights AND casting board on all night. There is NO FUCKING NEED for them to be staying on. I live in Calhoun and:

1) Blinds are shit, they don't block anything
2) RAs are stickily as fuck about anything CLOSE to the windows (love you guys)
3) I CANNOT SEE WHY THE LIGHTS NEED TO STAY ON ALL NIGHT.

The latest I've seen teams formally practicing is around 10, and the earliest has been around 6, so why can't they just. Shut them off then????? Why can't they allow us the 8 precious sweet sweet hours of darkness????????

Also!!!! Light pollution!!! And electricity costs!!! Man imagine the amount of money they're spending on all these worthless lumens and boards just to BLAST THE HELL OUTTA THEM all night!!!!!! I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT SWEET SWEET ENERGY MONEY TURNED INTO SOME GOOD OL' FUNDING FOR MY BROKE ASS!!!!!!!!! Who. By the way. IS PAYING FOR THIS GODAWFUL ROOM!!!!!

FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On Campus Question Anybody doing flex time law?

3 Upvotes

The website specifically says this is not a part-time program, but how feasible is it to do flex time and still have a job?

It says you may take 1 or 2 fewer classes a semester. How is that determined - whether you can take 2 fewer vs 1?

It says under special circumstances, you may take longer than 8 semesters to complete the degree - is it difficult to get the "special circumstances"?

making friends at UC thru side quests

22 Upvotes

hey guys! we're launching some treasure hunt events around UC thru an app we're building called Side Quest Master (sidequestmaster.com)!

the idea is pretty simple: we hide small prizes (like Hot Wheels!) around campus, post clues as mini games, and whoever finds them first gets to keep them and win SQM tokens! tokens can be used to post your own quests or redeem cool stuff like GTA6 download code :)

we know making friends at UC isn't always easy, especially if you're new here or don't know many people. so we thought it'd be fun to give people random little adventures to get out, explore campus, and maybe meet some new people along the way.

it's completely free to participate, and we're hoping to make this a regular thing if people enjoy it!

ps: if the events aren't showing up after signing in, please try closing and reopening the app!

Looking to hire associate software engineer (Cinci based)

8 Upvotes

Hopefully this isn’t against the rules here!

I work for Monti Inc (https://monti-inc.com), a local manufacturing company. We fabricate a lot of different parts, but our biggest area of growth right now is copper parts that deliver power, mostly to data centers.

I’m posting here because I spent 18 years at UC in a bunch of different software engineering roles, and got my master’s there too.

I’m hiring an associate software engineer. I left P&G earlier this year to come to Monti and build out an engineering practice, and right now that practice is just me. :)

We’re small and there’s a lot of demand for custom apps, so I don’t care much about what stack you know. What I’m really looking for is someone who’s into building with Claude Code or Codex.

If you like building systems that build software, or the whole software factory idea, I’d love to talk. Here’s the job description: https://recruiting.paylocity.com/Recruiting/Jobs/Details/4581611

Housing Were you recently towed from the Hub or the Yugo Deacon?

4 Upvotes

Over the summer, I was inundated with messages in my resident portal about the garage painting schedule—I counted seven messages. What I never saw was the reason that they were painting, which was to designate spots between the Deacon and the Hub based on color. In fact, I never learned the reason until the morning I went outside and my car was missing because it got towed. There was another student collecting his car at the same time for the same reason. I’m wondering how many people this happened to. Did this happen to you? Which building are you in?

I need to have an emergency contraceptive appointment at the UHS but I'm nervous for the whole process, specifically the financial aspect. Since I have student health insurance, should any medical appointment be free of charge? Not sure how this works exactly, and I don't particularly want to talk to my parents about it.

Survey Survey request: disabled or chronically ill current or recent higher education students, undergrad or graduate!

Post image
0 Upvotes

My name is Clara Mey and I am a PhD candidate at the University of Delaware. I am conducting a research study about disabled students’ experiences with disability accommodation processes in higher education for my dissertation. As a disabled graduate student, this topic is particularly important to me!

Please see the flyer linked here: Disability and Higher Ed Research Flyer

The University of Cincinnati was randomly selected as part of my analysis for my dissertation, and I wanted to make sure that students at the randomly selected universities/colleges had the opportunity to participate in my research!

In order to participate, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years old
  • Have attended college or graduate school in the US within the last five years
  • Self-identify as disabled or having a chronic health or mental health condition

You do not need a formal diagnosis, and you can participate whether or not you registered or applied for accommodations!

If you agree, you will be asked to complete an anonymous online survey taking about 20 minutes. You may also choose to enter into a drawing for one of five $20 gift cards at the end of the survey. If you choose to enter, your email will not be associated with your survey responses.

If you would be interested in participating in this study or would like to learn more, please click the link here: Disability and Higher Education Survey. And if you know people who might be interested, feel free to share this information!

If you have any questions, please contact me at [csmey@udel.edu](mailto:csmey@udel.edu) or my advisor, Dr. Eric Rise, at [erise@udel.edu](mailto:erise@udel.edu). Or feel free to comment or message me here!

Thank you!
