Hey everyone.. So I have moved back from my old home town to help out with family and I am looking for a running group to get involved and meet people. (Starting over) I have looked online and I am having no luck. Does anyone know of any running groups for non students?

This has to be one of the most ridiculous, classist policies the university could adopt. Students are in class until after 5. A normal workday is 9-5, with many students having later part time jobs, extracurriculars and university events. Any student that is disadvantaged financially in anyway whom has to work will suffer under this policy. Grades will fall.

And it’s not even going to work! Students are going to stay up later the night before, and go to all their stuff tired! Like 8-10pm would be a far better policy.

Howdy Racers! Alum here and mom to a current high school senior with her heart set on becoming a Racer. I wanted to get some outsider take on if she even has a shot to get in, and potentially some feedback on when she should look at finalizing her application.

-Current HS GPA: unweighted 2.61, weighted 3.23

-Two SAT scores: 920, 930

She has her application submitted but has to provide some additional info to be considered since her unweighted was under 2.75, needing test scores from ACT or SAT, etc. She currently has all As and one B this semester, so we are considering waiting to finalize her application until her GPA refreshes at the end of this semester next month, to try to pull her up to above a 2.75 unweighted. Or retaking the SAT a third time to try for a 940. She is a poor standardized test taker.

We no longer live in Kentucky and not in a neighboring state, so she would be an out-of-state student, but we are aware of the legacy student benefits since her parents both graduated from MSU.

So, I applied for a BS in Computer Science for the fall of '25 (I live in an apartment elsewhere and the lease isn't up until the summer of '25). I was wondering how much I should know before starting the degree? I am learning python as of right now and am still in the early stages, but with a long time before I actually start school, I have plenty of time to learn more. Is there anything you guys recommend I learn before attending, assuming I get in that is, my past college experience wasn't so great so my gpa suffered.

Also, are there any clubs or events you guys recommend I join/go to? I know some schools host little coding camps and stuff like that. Thanks for the help in advance!

Wanting to take my kids tomorrow, does anyone know if they throw out candy?

Hi!

Is anyone in this program? If so, is there research opportunities available for those who are entering? How is the school?

Dumb question, but just curious, can you take two degree paths at the same time? I’m going for my bachelor’s and two programs peak my interest- pre-med veterinary (the original I was going for) and wildlife and biology conservation. Both are close to each other, but I was unsure if they allow dual degrees/courses?

Hey! Kind of random but has anyone seen the cat that is frequently at the arboretum? His name is Chairman Meow and my boyfriend and I love him but it seems like no one else has heard of him. Has anyone here?

I'm 11th grader and plan on applying to this college. I want to go to the one in Tishomingo to be a Veterinary. But I want to know everything about it first. So what's the pros and cons and what's it like?

Hey all, I heard from someone that professors won’t let you record lectures in class, is that true? Also, if that’s the case, could you suggest a way that we can without getting in trouble?

Hello everyone! As the title says I am a prospective student and am looking to get into the physics program at Murray State. But, I wanted to reach out and see if anyone here had been or is in this program. How is it structured? Is it worth my time or should I get this degree somewhere else? And would you just recommend to anyone interested in physics or tell them to go somewhere else?

Random question but helps to see if I need a small ice maker machine/water filter.

Hello everyone! I’m a KCTCS student looking to transfer to MSU after I graduate in December. I’m a Pell grant recepient and have been my whole time in college so far. Is anyone else a Pell grant recipient at MSU? How much does it cover of your tuition each semester? I’m in PTK and honors so I’m sure I can get some scholarships to cover the remainder but I want to get an idea from any full time KY students ☺️ it’s a bonus if your an online student based in KY

I'm not affiliated with any of the parties, but this seemed like a good place to spread word of something fun to do in our small town tonight. Show starts at 7pm. High Noon Moon are really good.

I am an incoming first year freshmen and I am trying to do my housing, but every time I try to do it, it says that there is no items in my cart and won't let me do my deposit. I called and it was fixed but it did it again. Do I have to call again or is there a way I can fix this on my own?

Coming in as a transfer student and I used to attend a young adults church group back at home so I’m looking for one in Murray!

Party this Saturday!

My girl's birthday is this weekend and she's super bummed all of our friends have plans. (She's turning 28) She feels unimportant because they all made plans instead of trying to hang out with her on her bday. She's a great caring friend who loves anime and video games.

We're looking for people to hang out with and party to enjoy the night. We have a large yard and are 420 friendly.

I'm trying to help her out and cheer her up by introducing her to friends who could actually care about her. DM me if you're interested!

anyone know of bars and places to watch the event?

I'm taking an ag stats class, and I'm using a survey I made to collect data. Is there anyone who would be willing to take it for me? It's about basic food and agricultural concepts, and I'm separating the responses into two copies, based on age. I'd very much appreciate anyone at all willing to help!

Does somebody have the Murray States all time scoring leaders in basketball list or any website that shows it more than just 10 players..

Hi all! I am a (25M) moving to the area for work. I enjoy spending time outdoors, hiking, reading, attend performing art shows and djing. I would really appreciate best places to live in the area and I am very lucky to have a decent paying job that makes rental price a non issue in the area. I would enjoy living near post graduates or younger areas of the town. Let me know any of your favorite restaurants, bars, and special spots to check out!

Just wanted to give folks a heads up to be wary about buying any art from Mariah Sanders (a.k.a. Mariah Kuta) at the JP Art Pop Up coming up on January 27th 2024. Taking a look at her Instagram (@gnocchi.senpai), some of her "works" are straight up traced with zero credit to the original artists. Examples are posted. I would suggest folks scroll her insta to check for other copies.

I know some people are ok with traced art because they themselves "cant even trace art well, so no biggie if someone else does because the art still looks cool", but just wanted to alert others in case you don't want to pay for a Xerox. I definitely wouldn't. Cant speak for the other person partnering with her (@xek.rychtevorik). Hopefully their stuff is original.
