Brashier - Decedent’s Estates UM Outline

This is a long shot, but does anybody from the law school have an outline for Brashier's Decedent's Estates class? He's a visiting professor at my school this year and we're struggling a little - love him, he's just flying through material.

Looking for people to rent out a 4bd/3ba home with me and another roommate near University of Memphis. There are two bedrooms available! One has a private bathroom for $625 and the other is a similar sized room with the bathroom in the hallway for $575.

I'm a grad student studying music and my roommate is also a young professional, we are looking for other students or young professionals but are open to any situation honestly! Move in date is ASAP, if you move in during September we will pro-rate that month.

DM or comment if you're interested! We're looking to fill the rooms ASAP!

PHD funding

Hello everyone,

I have been accepted to Uofm for PHD in CS for spring 2025 as a international student. But, there is no mention of any funding in my acceptance letter.
I have contacted department for funding opportunities and reply is yet to come.

What is the process of funding a PHD program? How likely it is that I will be provided with any TA or RA or any other form of funding??

Is there any way to get a refund for the TigerEats money they give you?

I have a medical condition that means I literally won't be able to eat anything they have at the Tiger Den or anything. Is there anyway I can get a refund for the few hundred dollars they give you to spend?

Transferring

Hey all,

I’m currently a freshmen at UT in Knoxville. I applied to a number of schools (including the U of M) and received a pretty decent scholarship to attend Memphis in the fall. However, since I’m currently attending UTK, I declined the scholarship offer.

If I were to hypothetically transfer next year (for the fall of 25) would I receive decent scholarship offers as a transfer student too. I’m not familiar with the transfer process but am a bit curious.

Searching apartment for upcoming semester

A friend of mine is in need of an apartment for her senior year of college. She's a very neat, and quiet roommate. You'd barely notice she's there at times and would prefer one close to campus if possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated 👏.

Start a dodgeball team today!

Hello!

My name is Pryce and I am the founder and president of the Ole Miss dodgeball team. We compete in the southern region of the NCDA (National Collegiate Dodgeball Association) and wrapped up year one as a success!

As we start year two we are looking for more teams to join the league and spice up the competition! A local rival like Memphis would bring a lot to the league and it’s a short commute for games!

If you’re interested, we are hosting a tournament on October 12th and would love to help a current student set up a team! So please shoot me a message.

The NCDA can also be found on Instagram under the same handle.

Long shot, but does anyone know a Blake who's trans with two cats?

Part two of my roommate but now potentially friends too search haha. I found this super cool looking person on a roommate website and he looks like an awesome person to be friends or maybe roommates with, but in order to message him id have to pay 30 dollars... Just asking around cause I couldn't find him on social media, but if you know him I'd love to say hi

Also found a picture of him but that seems a bit invasive to post on here

Roommate shopping for midtown as a college student

Hello! I'm Sage. I'm doing what I'm calling "roommate shopping" haha. I'm looking to get to know some people who would be good potential roommates.

Call for Participants: "Space Race" Game Research Study

Hi Reddit,

We are a group of investigators from the University of Memphis conducting a research study on learning behaviors related to motivations and goals in video games. The goal of the study is to examine the relationship between motivations/goals and practice, repetition, and performance in a casual online racing game called Space Race.

If you agree to participate, you will be asked to visit a website on your personal computer or laptop, fill out a pre-questionnaire on Qualtrics, play the game at least 10 times (about 4 minutes per session), and fill out a post-questionnaire on Qualtrics.  During the game, you will be asked to share your game screen and enable your camera and microphone so that your eye gaze, expressions, and vocalizations can be captured. When you choose to stop playing the game, the screen sharing, microphone, and camera recordings will terminate.  You can choose to perform these activities at any time during a one-week period. The entire study will take about an hour of active participation.

You must have access to a personal computer or laptop with a camera, be 18+ years of age, be proficient in English, and be a currently enrolled student. You will receive a $10 Amazon gift card after completing the study. If you have any questions about volunteering for the study, please contact the principal investigator, Dr. Brandon M. Booth (bmbooth@memphis.edu) or post them here.

If you would like to register to participate in our study, please fill out this form: https://memphis.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV\_2tQjJPd6cpprrqm.  We will contact you soon!

IRB: PRO-FY2024-492

Edit: Registration is now closed. Thank you all for your interest in this study! We will reach out to everyone who filled out the survey in the coming day or two.

Name is wrong

Hello all! I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem as me. My legal name is MaryGrace, but when I submitted my application for UofM, I put my preferred name as Tobias. Since then, I have tried to change my preferred name back to my legal name, to avoid any future misunderstandings. I thought that it was done, but I keep getting emails addressing me as Tobias, despite being told I don’t have a preferred name on file. If anyone could help that would be great.

Best neighborhood to bike from to U of M?

What are some good neighborhoods to live in if attending U of Memphis? Midtown seems doable but challenging. I like to avoid busy streets and gigantic intersections, but it might not be possible. I'm experienced biking in a city but don't like taking the lane on 4+ lane roads, would just bike on the sidewalk. I have an e-bike so hills are no issue.

issues with housing office

i’m going into my third semester at memphis, and last year i did student housing on-campus in rawls hall. when i submitted my housing application in march, i put down that i want to be in rawls or smith for this upcoming year (both are the same price). however, they placed me in LLC?? LLC is $600 more per semester than rawls, and given that all housing prices have increased this year i just can’t afford it. i submitted a room change request AND have emailed reslife asking to be moved, both times stating that i can’t afford LLC, but i have heard absolutely nothing back.

has anybody else been having this issue or something similar? i understand there are a lot of people using student housing this year, but it’s a little ridiculous that reslife is basically ignoring me
