Subreddit News r/Rutgers is looking for new mods!

30 Upvotes

As the fall sem begins I am going to start looking for new moderators. If you would like to apply you can do so on this Google form: https://forms.gle/FZNX5326nNmn3o7VA

I plan on adding up to three mods. This is obviously a volunteer position and not an official job (please for the love of god do not plan to put ts on your resume). This is just a fun thing on the side of your actual life

While moderation experience is welcome it is not required. Your prior contributions to our community are paramount. I look forward to seeing you applications!

Quality Post Job scams

29 Upvotes

No professor (nor anyone else at Rutgers) would ever contact you about a potential job via a non-Rutgers email.

We are actually not supposed to use non-work email for anything work related.

I’ve gotten three emails from students who almost got scammed from someone impersonating me.

And just as a general rule: Any person you don’t know asks you to buy gift cards or crypto is scamming you.

Advice Wanted roommates not including me

32 Upvotes

So i have 3 roommates and we all live in an apartment. So 4 of us in total, and recently i feel like my 3 roommates have been bonding w out me and they r all closer to each other than they are w me.

So we all moved in and went out together but then things started going downhill. I have been putting in so much effort to become close w them, i do not lock myself in my room, i sit with everyone and talk as much as i can. I try to join in the conversation but they all mostly just talk over me. Even going so far as to blatantly ignore me.

They also recently have been going on errands and not inviting me. It just makes me feel so distant when they all converse and i’m just sitting there awkwardly hoping they would include me in the conversation.

I understand it’s only been a week since move in, however the rest of them have seem to hit it off. How are we supposed to get closer if they don’t give me any opportunities to?

I invite them to do things with me and they say no, but they never invite me to go outside with them or anything.

I should also note that we are very different people, i like going out and staying out late and they prefer to stay in and not go out at all.

This was mainly a vent post, feel free to share similar experiences. Thank you.

Edit: Thanks for all the replies guys I appreciate it. Feeling a little better 🫶🏼

Asked this last year, but since I'm up at RU Newark I haven't been able to check in on the happenings down in New Brunswick. Curious if one started up at all.

Have a few locomotives I'd love to show off, even if I have to take them on NJT once or twice a month.

Housing Dorm transfer

Upvotes

Hey guys!

I’ve been contemplating transferring dorms to college ave (the honors housing) since right now, I’m in the honors college but have been placed in a different campus. The honors dorms are just so much nicer and it feels so much easier to make friends.

But lowk idk if its worth the hassle or if its even allowed. I do know the honors dorms have empty rooms though. Thoughts?

Advice Wanted is this normal?

3 Upvotes

I was talking about college prices to someone and they don’t believe I’m paying 11k a semester. I don’t know if anyone else is paying anything similar but I’m a in state commuter with my own health insurance and I go to the sebs school, a junior and taking exactly 12 credits. Is this a normal amount? They said I must be out of state but I’m not..

Whether you're a new or returning student, I wish everyone the best of luck for the fall 2026 semester at Rutgers. It's my first semester myself as I am a transfer student. Welcome week was fun and made me so excited to be a part of this great community. Got the privilege of meeting some great people already and I am so excited to meet many more.

Good luck out there. ~Luke

General Question Intro Discrete Structures I (CS205) Instructor Question

I’m taking intro to discrete structures I this semester with Hamidi, and when looking through RMP I saw a few reviews mentioning that she allows students to skip the final if they’re already in good standing for the class. I just wanted to check here to see if this was accurate, and also hopefully get any advice for taking the class lol. Thanks for your time :)
