Many of the top universities have plunging acceptance rates (single digits to teens). What does it mean, if anything, for SBU future rankings that acceptance rate is rising?

The rankings usually weigh selectivity as an important component.

Any other consequences due to this relatively unusual metric?

Univ Michigan: 16%
Univ North Carolina: 15%
NYU: 9%
Boston Univ: 12%
Northeastern Univ: 6%
Syracuse Univ: 46% (see video below)

In weather like this I love going around. Sunroof down music up and exploring. My gas, just play music and join. Room for 4

I'm trying to figure out of the phy 133 lab is worth taking in person or online. There are no in person labs available rn so I'm thinking to just drop the online class and take in person one next semester, as I don't really wanna spend the money on the lab kit. Can anyone who has taken it before say if it is doable online or if in-person would be the better option. I also do not want to delay any degree progress. Any insight would be appreciated!

Hi all! The researchers in the Bilingual Speech and Auditory Neuroscience Lab at SBU are running a study on speech perception. Right now, we are looking for English monolinguals who are willing to participate on campus in this paid research study. Please reach out if you are interested in participating! Thank you!

What are they? I see them mostly in regards to business majors. Are they useful resume boosters? What does it take to formally specialize? Anything else to know about them?

Has anyone found a set of keys on the path between Roth Quad and West Apartments?

It has two keys on the ring with a pink character keychain attached.

If you found them or handed them in somewhere, please PM/DM me! Thank you so much!

Pre-health students are advised to take one year of English or writing. Does anyone know if any of the English or writing classes count besides WRT 102 (already took it) and if so which ones are good ones to take?

I am a current high school senior and will be applying to SBU and most likely attending if/when I get in. I want to major in Marine Vertebrate Biology on a pre-vet track and possibly minor in chemistry, geospatial sciences, or data sciences. Ideally I would minor in microbiology or pathology but SBU doesn’t have that so if i minor in anything those are my top three.

Anyways, my main question is should i take calculus or statistics this year? Both are dual enrollment so I will earn college credit. I’m currently signed up for calculus because when I signed up it was supposed to be AP but that changed. The AP teacher was no longer available so now the only option is dual enrollment calc with a teacher i’ve never had before but heard she wasn‘t very good. The statistics teacher on the other hand is my favorite math teacher and I had her last year for pre-calc (dual enrollment) and eight grade for algebra.

Either course is applicable to my major. I think Calculus might look better on my application, but I also am already taking three APs so it’s not like I have a light schedule.

The only real reason I’m hesitant to take statistics is because of the statistics for the life sciences/biostatistics course at SBU. I feel like I’d rather take that in college and get calculus out of the way now but I also don’t know if I want to suffer through with the current calculus teacher. If anyone has taken Calculus or biostatistics at SBU, or both, can you please tell me what you thought of the class? I know professors can be different but in general what you thought would be great! And also any suggestions on which class I should take now would be great!

This is a new professor and there is not much information about this courses here. I just wonder did he said the exams are open note or not? For those people who took it with other professors, is this course hard? I have some annoying mat courses so I probably gonna put more efforts on those :(

Hey I’m currently in West F (male) and am looking to swap into Chavez/Tubman. I don’t really have the time to cook this semester and too lazy to do so :/

Has anybody taken Bus 367 or is currently in it, if so how is it?

Is there echo in biochemistry and am I able to do the clickers remotely not on campus? Also, when is the best time to take biochemistry? In the fall or spring?

Hi - I found a ring on 9/1 in the New Computer Science building. If you lost one, message me a description.

I’m thinking of taking this course instead of 131, how is it? Is it as bad as people say? I have an AP physics C mechanics background and AP physics 1

The plush is inside of a yellow duck themed clear pouch. Please if anyone sees it, let me know!

I wanna say that iur food is nothing like the one they are serving at East Side Dining. Attached is SBUs poorly made Aji de Pollo 😃

This second picture is how it actually should look adding arroz chaufa in the slides as well.

Like this is a crime against gastronomy. I need reparations for the damage inflicted in my country's reputation. This has to be cultural appropriation at its finest. I am sorry to everyone who had to experience peruvian food for the first time. SBU, you should do better if you are gonna go around messing up cultural recipes.

They must’ve seen the post from yesterday

Or Vladimir J Goldman? How are they?

Please learn how roundabouts work please 🙏
