Work order for lights?

I'm living in dorms and my room's overhead light isn't turning on - I think the bulb burnt out. Is this something I'm expected to fix myself, or is placing a work order better?

Building open till 11 pm Sunday and other days? Also where r the free snacks?

I know hub is open till 11 fri sat but looking for other options

I don’t start till winter so I only got my husky card. Just looking for place to study my online cc stuff while I wait for next quarter. Need bathroom with urinal too be easily accessible. Prefer open door way to bathroom no having to open a door.

Also i saw this YouTube video of someone with a free tea at uw is there some kinda free snack thing I mostly am interested in water. yes I know there r free water bottle stations/fountains but that scares me I got cringe germaphobia about that.

There's an endless line of dozens and dozens of city buses parked along Montlake Blvd, is it for the game somehow?

hello,

I am applying Udub rd and I wanted to know if it is easier to get into the EE+CE major compared to just CE at Udub. I am an OOS student.

Employee discount at team store?

Never been to a Husky game before and have no merch, is there an employee discount at the store at the stadium? Or a different store I should stop at first?

Also, is this a color themed game?

Thanks!

Can I apply to "No Freshmen" course for my second quarter?

I'm a first-year student coming in with 84 credits from AP/CHS. Technically, I have enough credits to be a sophomore right now, and a junior after the Autumn 2024 quarter.

However, my profile on MyUW still says 'FRESHMAN,' so I'm worried if I'm eligible to register for courses like ENGL 296 and SOC 225 B for Winter 2025.

Applying for internships with zero experience?

I’ve heard internships are very helpful for breaking into industries and getting relevant experience. This coming summer is likely my only chance for an internship as I’m likely to graduate spring 2026, which means I need to be applying now. The problem is that I have zero experience in the work I’m interested in. I’m pursuing Geography Data Science and would like to work in the public sector doing something with GIS/data.

Some context: I’m 20s returning student, and I technically have sophomore standing, but credit wise I can graduate next year if I take a couple classes in the summer. This is my first quarter back (after almost a decade away) so the only remotely relevant classes I have are stats and geog which I’m taking now. I’ll be taking CS and GIS courses next quarter. Do I just apply and list skills I’ll gain this year rather than skills I currently have lol?

For financial aid reasons, I really need to graduate next spring, so staying through my senior year and doing internships the summer after isn’t an option unfortunately.

CHEESE TOUCH SPOTTED NEAR MERCER COURT /srs

https://preview.redd.it/wyg6xu2uheyd1.jpg?width=3029&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f884aa7f57ad3e57f6dae75c22ffd6dd816ebdd

The Cheese Touch originated from a piece of moldy Swiss cheese that lay in Mercer Court for months. The first person to have the cheese touch was Ana Mari Cauce, who touched it with her finger. It is said that Cheese Touch works like the cooties: you have it until you pass it on to someone else. The only way to protect yourself from the Cheese Touch is by crossing your fingers when you walk by..

How Much is the Husky Health Building Co-Pay?

Hi! I have an issue I’d like to have looked at, but as of right now, it’s nothing super serious/urgent. My usual doctor is about a 2hr bus ride away, and I wouldn’t be able to get in to be seen until 1-2 weeks from now. I checked if UW accepts my medical insurance, and they do. I know each person’s coverage is different — especially depending on the procedure — but is there a rough estimate for how much the co-pay is? Is it worth it to go on campus, or should I just wait the 2 weeks and be seen by my regular doctor? Tysm!
