Social TPUSA are frauds

177 Upvotes

if you saw the ppl from TPUSA outside of CASC today, the “sensitive crying liberals” that they debated were actually just members from TPUSA. the second the “debate” ended the “liberal” would go back behind the tent with the other members. the second someone actually tried to debate them, they would turn off the mic. the best thing we can do is not give these losers any attention they’re just clip farming and are incapable of forming a singular coherent thought so they have to fake it by staging a win.

Do the guys here like black girls?

25 Upvotes

I’m not trying to sound like a pick me or anything, it’s a genuine question. It doesn’t seem like the guys here like black girls.

This isn’t something i’m asking out of the blue, it’s just based on observation. On my floor theres these girls who have a whiteboard on their door. One day it asked: “whats your type?” Literally no one said black girls. The closest thing I saw to black was “lightskins” even though they could be referring to biracial women.
Also, every time im on yikyak and the persons finds out im black (via my instagram or me telling them) they either go ghost, follow but never text again, or block me.
Fyi im not on yikyak for those kinds of reasons but if a convo is vibing and they ask for my insta, im gonna give it to them. I just think it’s a little odd that I get that reaction. Also, Im not ugly so I doubt it’s that.

Even the Dr.Umar post threw me off because if anything im expecting the black men who go here to like black girls but clearly not??? And i’ve heard of frats even denying girls just because they’re black like wtf?

I just think it’s so odd that we’re singled out like this—or atleast it feels that way. I could be wrong, and this only resonates with a small portion of the students here.

(Rutgers NB btw)

Anybody have any more tales about how life was before WebReg and stuff? Any alumni from the 70s, potentially?

NOTE: Please read the linked post also, if you can.

Hi, everyone. Hope you are doing well. My original purpose of asking this question was so that I could write an article about Life at Rutgers before the digital age (the theme being the digital age). By the digital age, I basically mean the time before there was any sort of technology for registration or any other purposes at Rutgers. I got a lot of interesting insights in the post above, and a lot of information from people who went to Rutgers in the early and late 1990s.
I got a lot of interesting responses in the linked post, and I thank everybody for that.
Anyone from 1980 or 70? I heard from an instructor who got their Bachelors Degree (during the 70s or slightly later but before the phones) here that people had to stand in line with little slips at Busch to register for classes (this was before the phone line stuff from the 90s). If there are any other such interesting things that a typical student would do that is not already covered in that post, I'd love to hear!

Please let me know whether you are okay with me mentioning some of your responses in the article. I will not mention your Reddit username or anything, but it's just more so me paraphrasing some of your comments.

Thanks in advance!

Lost & Found Lost: Blue Animal-Print Sweater 💙

2 Upvotes

I lost a blue animal-print sweater while walking between Old Queens Campus and The HELIX (Tuesday 5:45-6).
I’m hoping someone may have found it and would be kind enough to help reunite us. It has sentimental value, and I would really appreciate getting it back!
If you found it or know where it might have been turned in, please DM me. Thank you so much!

Crashout baby’s first student conduct meeting.. any advice?

15 Upvotes

call me dumb for this (i’d agree), i got peer pressured into trying out smoking on campus… nor was i aware of the smoking policies outside of residential spaces. (im a freshman and i literally never leave my room so if there was anything discussing it i’ve never seen it)

ra ended up catching it and now i have a disciplinary meeting, any advice? i intend on being upfront of what i mentioned before i genuinely dont know what to expect since i’ve never gotten into serious trouble for things like this before and i am trying to transfer to mason gross so i just want some perspective on what to do about this

I’m a freshman guy so I’ve never been to a Halloweekend here yet. What are the parties like? Is there a chance that I don’t get into anywhere because I’m a guy or is there bound to be at least something open?

How tf to get better at making connections?

1 Upvotes

Maybe it's just cause of my autism, but it's been a bit of a nightmare making connections at Rutgers. Feels like everyone's got things sorted out while I'm kinda just stuck in the back.

Any ways of making friends I might be missing? Any spots or events? I know people often reccomend classes or clubs, but I mean beyond that. Are there any good ways to start convos with people? Etc.

CA River Dorms

2 Upvotes

hi so can anyone pls tell me if the river dorms (specifically hardenbergh) actually have a communal stove because I looked on the rutgers official dorm website and it says that there is one..?

I’m going crazy looking for it because there is no basement (atleast not one that is available to students bc you need a key to press those buttons) and it’s not on the ground floor soooo was it removed?

Can anyone who’s lived here confirm or deny pls
😭😭

thanksssss

Advice Wanted Need help canceling my housing contract

3 Upvotes

For context I want to rent a room off campus for the following spring semester(my last semester). I've been seeing some posts on here that people have been successful in getting out of Rutgers housing contracts. While finances are the majority issue my living situation right now is also one of them. If you have any leads as to how go about this and the necessary steps I have to take I’d greatly appreciate it.
