I'm a 20 year old sophomore and I realized i'm a lot more isolated than I would like to be. Due to a prescription I had last year I couldn't drink or take weed so I just never went out during my Freshman year. Now that I can I realized I'm not sure where to go or into parties and have some fun due to just never building those connections.

Just wondering what places there are to check out.

Anyone else rage at the FIXED TIERED TABLET ARMCHAIRS? Any hall with these is the worst. Can barely fit a laptop, let alone you’ll never get a paper and laptop. You can’t even fit a paper and your iPad. It’s also so far to the right I think everyone is going to develop spinal issues. Fuck these desks. And then there’s only a handful of left sided desks but they don’t do shit either, and that means I have to only sit in the left aisle for a left handed desk. Malott 2001 Strong 330 win the award for worst desks. I get it, these desks are dinosaurs before everyone had personal laptops, but why can’t we have all halls as nice as Cap Fed where it’s like 4031 Cap. Fed? https://classrooms.ku.edu/rooms/capitol%20federal%20hall/4031

i want to crash out these desks make me so angry

Anybody taking either of these tests this week or have taken before and have any advice on how to do well on them? trying to get my grade up from previous ones

Hi I’m looking for a volunteer for a project I’m doing for my phonetics class! The only requirements are that you have a first language other than English, and you’re willing to send me a audio recording through (email or other means we can work out) of a word/phrase bank I’ll provide. It’s a semester long project so I don’t know have exactly dates yet that I’ll need the recording but anyone who can help out would be appreciated thank you!

Which is usually more preferred and better quality? And do they get expensive on weekends/nights/game days etc due to much higher demand?

Interested in working at the university and grad school. Coming from a big metro North East city and growing up safety was/is still a concern. Looking to be able to worry less and let my guard down a bit as I get older (of course still taking sensible precautions). What neighborhoods and complexes are good to consider? And what are reasonable prices and utilities to expect for a one bedroom or a place with maybe just one roommate, preferably each with own bathroom?

Hi, looking at an offer to U of Kansas for grad school and work on campus (also considering Mizzou and U of Iowa). Late 30s single man coming from living in a big metro area in the NorthEast of many millions nearby more metro area even more millions of people, so it’ll be quite a change. But the university has a ton of grad students compared to some other schools I’m looking at and that seems to help vs undergrad heavy schools (like Mizzou I Columbia, which I’m also considering).

Curious what the campus and city is like for much older students and if campus/city is conducive for single older adults? Much to do at school and around town or do many travel to Kansas City and Topeka and for events and better social life? And is the drive to either that bad?

Hey everyone! I've just been accepted in this program. I was wondering if anyone is in or has graduated from this program... And if so, do you enjoy it? Has it been helpful/useful? Have you had opportunities to network? Any and all feedback on your experience would be helpful!

Hi! I’m (F20) considering studying at the University of Kansas for one year. I know nothing about Kansas and was wondering if anyone could answer some questions for me :-)

1. I’ve heard that there’s “nothing to do in Kansas” and that id get very bored, how true is this?
2. Is public transportation reliable? I won’t be able to buy a car.
3. What’s the nightlife like? does it revolve around Greeklife? If it does would I be able to go to parties without being in a sorority ?
4. What is there to do in Lawrence?
5. Any other advice/ info you think I should know?

Thanks so much!!!

Curious if you guys think I have any chance of getting in. I have a 2.2 GPA (unweighted), not submitting test scores, very good extra curriculars, excellent senior essay, and my mom is an alumni. Just freaking out about it because i am passionate about going there. Let me know please.

Hey everyone,

Im transferring to KU in the Spring of 2025 as a sophomore. Besides joining greek life what are some other ways to meet people and what are some places on and off campus that a lot of college kids live at. Ive only been to Lawerence once and I really want to meet people.

Basically the title. Literally. How do I get a work-study job, like in one of the libraries or something? Any time I ask someone working there they just kind of shrug and say to look it up online but there is not much info on KU’s website, no applications or anything. Is this like the mafia where you have to have connections or know someone? Lol. Can anyone help me out here?

I've seen flyers around but their socials haven't been updated since last academic year - would love to find out if anyone knows if they're still meeting. Thanks in advance!

University wouldn't say which:

Kansas Lecturer Leaves After Remark on Shooting Men Who Won’t Vote for Women
https://www.insidehighered.com/news/quick-takes/2024/10/14/university-kansas-lecturer-leaves-after-viral-remark

has to benefit students and faculty as a whole.

To give a little bit of context. I have no real reason to get a second job besides the fact that I just want to have more money in my savings, I currently am in a sales position and I’m still iffy about it because I haven’t really been making a lot of sales and people keep telling me it takes time to gain a good skill set. I get very anxious thinking about it, however, I’ve been in sales for two almost 3 years now the only difference with what I’ve been doing to what I am doing now is cold calling and making something out of nothing. I have a year and a half left in my degree, after that, I do plan on leaving and going into a different position within the company that I work for. I also find that I am comparing myself to a lot of other people who have had better luck with getting more sales when they first started in this current position that I’m in. I’m not sure what to do. I was offered a part-time position at an old clothing store that I used to work at, but I’m not sure if I really wanna take it. I’m not a big fan of that “sales high” anymore, I’m 22 btw so I am proud of myself for getting a corporate position but I’m not a fan of it anymore

Does anyone have any experience with the CAPS on campus? Is it a good place to go for therapy or would it be better to go somewhere else in Lawrence? I think my insurance covers therapy so that shouldn’t be an issue. All recommendations are appreciated!

Hey all, as my title suggests, I’m pretty damn confused how people can afford apt rent in Lawrence. Most of these rates are pretty freakin high. I get that some people have lower rates, but I’m more asking how can I afford an apt that, even with roommates costs me $600 base while I’m still paying for school and other stuff as a full time student. I also just want to say that there are conditions and circumstances around my situation that make it so I don’t have many options and am kind of stuck in paying for this apartment if I do get one. Also, I’ve been on a number of other threads and a lot of people say their parents are involved in paying that. I’m just gonna say right now, plz don’t comment anything like that because I don’t have that option at all. I understand work-study essentially lets you work and study/ do hw for school, but that’s not enough given the avg wage in Lawrence is like 15-16 an hour. And given all the costs I have, I don’t think I can use that to save $600+ a month. Some people also want to suggest loans which I am strictly against aside from a small one I took out for tuition due to other reasons as well. So Reddit… what you got?

Edit: I do have a job! It’s not paying super well right now and I am looking for a different one. Just adding this cause people keep advising I get a job.

I’m currently at community college for my gen eds, and I graduated hs with a 3.67. I looked at the requirements for the Architecture program and it said there was a requirement and people below requirements would be admitted by availability/space available. I currently have a college GPA of 2.77 (I did dual credit in hs and was highly involved in extracurriculars which did hurt my gpa). How many spots are typically open for the Architecture program, and what are my odds of being accepted. I am in state.

Apologies for the stupid question, but where should I park at CapFed? I am a student but I received a ticket at 12pm Fri for being in the wrong zone? There wasn’t a staff sign so I’m not sure what I am doing wrong. Please let me know, thx!

Such tolerance. Does anyone know what class this was in and who the professor is?
