Would anyone be interested in starting a social group in Brookings? Like a maybe monthly meeting where people who want to make friends can be introduced to each other. I was thinking really any age range from 18+. Let me know if any of you think this would be a good idea or if you would be interested.

New to town and looking for a good spot to get a haircut. I have gotten a mid to low fade in the past and like those styles. However, I know its not always the best option available. Does anyone know of a good spot and how much a usual haircut costs? I've been to great clips before but would like to seek other options first.

Anything to do mid 30s bwc male from Oklahoma up for for have a motel looking for some fun

hi guys, so i'm am international student hopefully moving to Brookings this fall for college.

basically- i contacted SDSU regarding housing. and the ones available weren't necessarily what i prefer.

i'm gonna be honest- i actually have mild ocd, and i've been to therapy for that. i'm working on it but of course, just like anything else- things don't just get fixed overnight.

i explained this to SDSU, hoping they could maybe ensure that they might consider be eligible for any of the suit-style rooms with an attached bathroom so that i don't have to share the bathroom with many ppl.

they did respond back but told me that i would have to work with someone at the other department- in order to accommodate me BUT there's no guarantee that i might be able to get assigned to any suite-style room.

so like i'm confused on what to do here.. i do wanna attend SDSU but i'm feeling hesitant bc of the housing.

i could look for apartments to rent but idk any legit rental companies w good reviews.

so do you guys happend to know any good rental companies at Brookings?

i did contact the "Wilmot Estates" at 300 20th St S, Brookings, SD 57006. but again, i'm not sure if they're legit or not.

so yea, any advice would genuinely be appreciated. thanks!

hi, so i'm an international student interested in joining SDState.

i was looking up colleges, and well, most public ones can be pretty expensive to out-of-state students, but SDState happens to be among the very few w a "not-so-expensive" rate for OOS students.

so, i'm definitely interested yet also hesitant since idk much about it, especially in regards to how the ppl/ the environment is.

so, i was thinking if y'all can help me out w a few questions-

1. i'm muslim so i would appreciate ur honest opinion on how the ppl here at (Brookings) treat others from a different faith, esp muslims. like be honest, how's the racism/islamophobia here on a scale of 1-10.

2. how safe is this area for women?

3. is the public transport good here at Brookings?

like i won't have a car- so is (bus/metro) available around here?

yea, so that's all. i hope that some of you guys are able to answer a few qs. thanks!!

Just cause today's snow is insane, let me know!

Change in plans have us closer to the middle of the state. Leaving this here for future small farmer wanna be's like myself.

Hey all,

Life is moving us into the area and I may have the opportunity to start a small business, looking for ideas of needs in the North Eastern SD area.

We've been practicing growing things both green and feathery for awhile and would really like to provide food and nature for others while playing in the dirt. Thinking some sort of micro ag business. We cannot afford a lot of land so it needs to be space efficient. Maybe a vegi co-op, sprouting greens or fungi of some kind? Or would a flower farm do well there? Or maybe raspberries? I'm open to raising small livestock as well, if our new property allows such to be done in a clean and loving manner.

I don't want to directly or fully compete with other small business and don't need to get rich, just need some extra income. Would prefer to find an unfilled need and provide such. If you know of other small business I should be aware of please let me know, they are surely out there. I'll be contacting the Chamber of Commerce and SBA soon. Thank you for any recommendations, eager to join the community!

Hey,

I am considering moving up to SD (and Brookings specifically) because my job has basically fully transitioned to remote. This means that the absurd living costs of where I currently live do not make sense.

With an estimated salary of around 35k/year, how affordable/friendly is Brookings? Mind you, even though I currently live in a big city, I lived in a very rural part of Indiana throughout highschool and college so I know what is like. Maybe.

Anyway, just some friendly help and info would be great. Thanks

This is now a Cubby's appreciation sub. Thanks

Are there any bars in town that offer Coors Banquet on tap?

Does anyone know where I can find a list of past mayors?

Hey all, I wanted to update you on UTST’s meeting with some of Senator Thune’s staff. We had a group of 8 constituents who spoke from various backgrounds and perspectives about the struggles South Dakotans have had during COVID and what kind of legislation the Senator can support to address these needs, including a few ideas from your comments our previous post.

We asked the Senator's staff if he supports President Biden's COVID Relief Plan. Their answer: the Senator is concerned with the price of the proposed plan as there's still money left over from the last plan that hasn't been released. Therefore, no, at this time he doesn't support it.

What do you all think about that? Given that we are in the middle of a pandemic and that South Dakotans have been hit hard by the virus, is this the time to be concerned about the price tag?

With this, we are hoping to bring together a bigger group of South Dakotans to continue these conversations with our Senators and maybe even Governor Noem. If you want to join this conversation, DM me!

Hey all, my name is Micayla. I am a SDSU student and a regional organizer for UTST (check out my profile for more info on our organization). Tomorrow we have a meeting with Senator Thune’s health advising staff to discuss if he supports Biden’s plan for expanding rural health infrastructure and jobs as well as plans for rural vaccine distribution.

My question for you all is what do you wish you could ask Senator Thune related to these topics? Or, what do you want to know about his stances related to COVID?
