I'll be starting my Fall term this year and I was wondering if there are frat parties there at OSU. I've never been to one actually. Any advice as a first timer attending these parties?

To all the students who like to damage the delivery bots on campus:

You're dumb. You're not funny.

You know they aren't driven by AI, right?

You know they aren't taking any jobs away, and in fact make jobs on campus, right?

You know under Oregon law they are classed as pedestrians, and you can be charged with the same level of assault as a human being, right? Not to mention vandalism, and destruction of property, right?

You make us look bad. You make the campus look terrible with all this damage rolling around. Do better. Be better.

I hope you have a come to Jesus moment. Thank you.

I recently got off of the UCSC waitlist and now im lowk panicking. I need to know which school I'm going to in 24 hours and I still have not decided. Cost of attendance will be the same. I was admitted to Oregon State for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and to UCSC for Cell, Developmental, and Molecular Biology. I have aspirations to be a cancer biologist in the future. I am looking to do a lot of undergraduate research Would anyone have any advice here?

Canvas will probably be back online soon-ish.

I’d imagine most assignments due today/tomorrow/etc. will end up getting extensions, considering the situation. And if not, email your TA or professor directly.

I was already in the middle of asking my professors for extensions on assignments due Friday and Monday.

So, this outage gave me a second to breathe instead of submitting half-assed work.

Thank you hackers ... I guess 🙏

Looking for something fun to do Friday night? The Astronomy Club is hosting the 3rd annual Physics and Astronomy Open House at OSU! The event will be on Friday, May 15th, from 6-10 PM, Weniger Hall on campus (23rd and Monroe). It's totally free and open to the public, and we have a wide range of educational science demonstrations for all ages to enjoy.

There will be lectures from 6-9 PM, varying from talks on alien life to detecting when black holes collide. Throughout the entirety of the Hall, we have fun science demos, clubs, and research labs alike. At the end of the night, we're going to peer into the cosmos with our telescopes to show Jupiter's moons, galaxies and much more!

See below for our poster (which I'm sure you've seen around campus) and spread the word.

Hope to see you Friday!

Who else got hw to submit? I'm Ecampus student and it's getting late here, all I want to do is submit my paper soon.

I know several people who were recently admitted to OSU. As a HS grad gift I would like to get them a gift card to a local off campus restaurant. Likely no car so must be able to walk or take transit. Where would you recommend?

Whether it’s on campus or nearby I looked through some of the questions asked on the page and couldn’t find much, much less that’s recent. I was just in town yesterday to look at apartments and ended up getting some delicious banh mi right next to that board game store in downtown Corvallis. Would love some other foodie hot spots to consider once I’m officially moved in next month.

Thanks 😊

I heard a rumor that they are planning to shut down the CS program after this year and lay off all the staff and faculty. I’m not sure if this is known, but if it’s true, people deserve to know.

Hi y’all, my family is coming into town for graduation, and I’m looking for a place to go for dinner in either Corvallis or Albany. I’m hoping for something a little nicer, but nothing insanely expensive or michelin level fancy. Two of us are vegetarian, but that is the only dietary restriction. Please give me your best suggestions!! Thanks!!

EDIT: places in Philomath or Salem are also ok!

The title says it all, but seriously people please stop talking over movies. I understand whispering a bit to the person next to you, but if you want to talk during a movie just stay home or at least wait a few weeks till there's a more empty showing.

I feel like every showing my wife and I go to no matter what kind of movie it is, there's always at least one group of people talking to each other.

Before anyone says it, I know the Darkside is better about this sort of thing, but I need them to upgrade their screens.

Do yall think OSU paid/ will pay the ransom? How else did they get Canvas back up for us so soon? If we're paying OSU, OSU is paying Canvas (Intructure), and Canvas is paying the hackers' ransom, doesn't that mean we're ultimately the ones being extorted? Just some thoughts for food.

Due to the community guidelines I’m not sure if I can say who teaches this course, but if you know, you know. Why is this class so rigorous and difficult to get through? I’ve eased through so many finance and accounting classes, but with this one, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to pass with an A or B+. Our midterm had just passed and barely anyone got a 100 on the first part of the exam, hence the huge curve he gave us. There’s been a lot of typos in the homework assignments which altered my calculations and resulted in me being marked down for. I addressed it to him via email… NO RESPONSE. I even made sure it’s the right email address too. Homework assignments like this (week 6) are too confusing. Even my group members are stumped. The professor has an amazing background in finance. He knows a lot. But in my opinion, his teaching style is awful and the class is overly disorganized.

At 7pm this evening, The Chapter House is hosting a guided conversation on masculinity; what it is, what it isn’t, and WTF to do with it if we can’t just throw it out. Led by some asshole you’ll probably hate. It’ll suck, you shouldn’t come. But if you do, just know that everyone’s welcome.

(Yes, everyone)

Hi! I lost my wallet this morning somewhere between Harrison and campus, on 17th street, I think. Please let me know if it is found!! I am panicking at the replacement fees.

Thanks

Edit; more info - it is a green waterproof wallet. I can give more details about the contents if it has been found.

Hey! Does anyone know someone who can take grad photos?
