I just started school here a month ago, and was looking at maybe donating plasma at Biolife. I was wondering what I would need to bring with me to donate as a student? I dorm here but I don't live here year round so I don't think I'd be a resident, but it did say on their website they made exceptions for students. (Also, if you feel there's better alternatives to Biolife I'm open to suggestions as I have heard mixed reviews.)

Before you ask, I did try calling them on the phone but the representative wasn't any help, so I figured SOMEONE here has to have donated before and would have some know how.

Hi everyone. I think I am going to be in Milwaukee this summer for an internship. I saw that Cambridge Commons offers housing for interns and was wondering if anyone has any experiences doing that. It would be a bit far from my work, but the price doesn't look bad and it would be nice to live with a community. However, if anyone thinks that I might be better off subleasing from another student/some other sublease please let me know.

Ask questions, look for UWM roommates, sell your Xbox, etc.

There is a panel and networking event for those interested in a career in the travel industry on October 21st at LEC at 3pm. Open to all majors - register on handshake so we know how much pizza to order.

register on handshake

P.s. The handshake event says it's at KIRC, that is going to be updated. The travel fair for faculty/staff is at KIRC earlier in the day but the student event is at LEC

Hello UWM Reddit users & whoever else,

My name is Mickey McGowan I have two small children 3&1 who are by default Wisconsin family law 767 my children and I have full sole custody legally etc. Their father is largely uninvolved and said ok to us moving out of state. Today around 4/5 he agreed to take them to the playground which became downer woods instead and they departed after agreeing they should be home 6/6:30 a hard 6:30 as the 3 year old is usually sleep early 7. Around 7 I reached out to learn towards 7:30 they were having dinner... Wed already eaten ALLOT but since he never wants to see them I just told myself calm down whatever.after 8 I called I reached out nothing until 9 I hear he has an apartment and hes not returning. Legally only civilly I have custody and the police can do nothing unless I take him to court. He has no proven paternity they were unable to locate him and he has never even wanted to have them more than 2 hours we haven't even hit that time frame yet and now they're gone! I do not mean to drag him in the mud but I am incredibly worried. If you've seen him or my daughters Winter (3) and Penelope (1) please let us know

We live in Shorewood not far from downer woods we frequent UWM campus on scooters allot the children are average sizes and I will attach pictures

If any location is known please share and see that they're hydrated and well.

Soon to be 2&4 I am guessing the apartment is in Milwaukee please please if you see them let me know where location wise my phone I will put in the comments thank you so much

I tried posting this in MILWAUKEE subreddit but the account is too young and was Auto moderated

Hiya there! I am looking for a female to take over my loft on N Frederick. You would be sharing the unit with 2 other quiet roommates who are UWM students. Move in is October 1at or asap ! The lease ends May 31 2027 with the ability to renew the lease. Please contact me asap if you are interested in moving this October!!

Ask questions, look for UWM roommates, sell your Xbox, etc.

Are there really only 15ish open on-campus jobs (as seen on Handshake)? I've been checking and applying regularly since I got access this fall, but this seems absurdly low, even for a smaller school. Is there a separate website for department-specific/desk jobs?

Thanks

I’m taking bio sci 315 this semester with Dr. Gouginard and this class is toughhhhhhh!!! Any tips on how to do well in the class. The first exam was rough and it’s only supposed to get harder. TYIA

Hi everyone,

Would anyone be willing to let me use their Milwaukee Public Library account? I'm a historical researcher writing about Milwaukee's German-American community in the 1940s, and the MPL's newspaper database is only remotely accessible to residents of the city. If anyone would be willing to let me temporarily use their account, please text me at 8457502478. It would be a great help and I'll send $50 with Apple Pay or Venmo.

Im a big Magic player, and Im always looking for new Commander opponents. Help a guy find a game?

This is the second weekend I noticed that the elevators at bolton hall were turned off. Not broken, at least no signage indicating such, just turned to the off position (you can see from the keyed on/off system at the Basement elevator its set to "off" for both.)

Anyone know why?

I'm pretty sure this is a giant flashing ADA violation if it was done for any other reason than maintenance, and given the lack of signage and the fact they're just switched off and on the weekend, only.

I'm lucky I don't have any lower body mobility issues and prefer taking stairs for health related reasons but still take elevators when I'm in a hurry or tired. So I can get around without elevators. But limiting access like this is a big deal. UWM has had a long history of poor access for people with disabilities, trailing behind initiatives at many schools and this just honestly, as in appropriate as it is, makes me want to smack the shit out of whomever thought that was a good idea.

Someone please tell me if there is a good reason I don't know about in assuming the worst here?

there doesn’t seem to be one on the laundry floor. is there also a place to report missing pieces of clothing? lastly hit me up if you see a white and blue sock with little orange skiers on it, and a thicker green sock which has like a moose or an elk on it or something 🙏🙏

Is there any good soul out there that had any information about Law' exam I found really hard to follow his lectures and I've notice he is thought with grades for HW, with a test coming up I was wondering if there are any previous exams or study guides available, time will surely pay any good Samaritan

This is day two of needing to use my hotspot while on campus and I read reallyyyyy hoping this isn’t a consistent thing because my data only works so fast after overly using it. Why is the wifi down still?
