This PSA should just get posted at the start of every semester. I don't care what anyone thinks or says.

I pay thousands of dollars to this school, commute for hours, and demand to study in peace.

I don't have a dorm room to go back to. I have a cramped apartment with two kids (one of them a loud toddler), and a tired wife. The library IS my study space, it is where I work to make a better life for my family, and I pay for it out of my own extremely hard earned money

If you think coming up to the 5th floor to have your conversation, feet away from people trying to study, is a good idea, you're wrong. And you directly come into conflict with ME.

You have 4 other floors, and an entire campus to find spots to have your conversations. There is one, and only one space, that has been selected for students to be able to study in peace, and we should treat it like the precious fucking resource it is, in a world of noise and attention.

I will continue calling people out. EVERY TIME.

You can look at me like I am crazy, get mad, talk shit, scoff, yell back. I have dealt with it all.

But if you come up to the 5th floor, have a conversation, and I am there, congrats kids, because a crazy looking guy is going to yell at you and make a scene. I do it every day.

Prof asks a question and blank stares. 4th year cs student. No one wants to be that person that speaks up and it’s just kind of embarrassing for our generation. Anyone else feel this way? I’m mainly talking about the in class experience. Does everyone just secretly hate each other or am I missing something lol.

I have been here for the past 2 years. Never has SDSU been so packed. Classes take 20 mins to walk to, the food court has a 30 min wait line. How many did they admit this year??

Hello,

I was supposed to receive a merit scholarship from my department, but I do not see it yet.

When I go into my student portal, my financial aid tab has "2023-2024" on it, which is obviously wrong. Additionally, in the "tasks" section, it says to pay my intent to enroll deposit, which I have paid. I worry that one of these errors is affecting my aid.

Yes I have applied to Aztec Scholarships.

Any help with getting my award is appreciated,

hi! i was just wondering if there were any music clubs or places for musicians to meet. i’m a little intimidated by backdoor studio because i only really have my voice so i don’t know how that would work, and also things like choir just because i’m not really professionally trained. i like to sing (and play guitar but i don’t have that with me) and would just like to be in a space to create and collaborate with people who would be interested in also making music if that exists on campus?

side note: my major isn’t music related at all so i haven’t really been able to meet any musicians in classes so any clubs would be helpful!

Hey I’m currently taking MATH 245 and I was wondering for anyone who has taken it before what should I lookout for/study more and how much harder does it get as well as if you could provide any resources that could help with the class

Hi, looking to transfer from a CC to SDSU next fall (will also apply to UCSD, but honestly leaning & hoping to get into SDSU). My primary major would be in Anthropology, looking to double major in History (interested in the public histories specialization for my career path)

Anthropology Dept. and Majors Qs:

1) What field(s) of anthropology is the major more geared towards: courses, resources, culture & attitudes?

2) For the archaeologists: what are the typical skills your courses teach you, and do you think they could be translated to arts and culture heritage conservation & collection management?

3) what do you hope to do/what is your career path? And are you double majoring and minoring in other majors to get there?

4) Courses that interested you outside of requirements, and that you think are just as important to the foundations of anthropology

5) Anyone experiencing/experienced the collections management program?

History (public histories) Qs:

1) Would you say most students specializing in Public histories are looking to get into museums, arts and culture nonprofits & advocacy, cultural heritage preservation and conservation?
- if not, what is your intended use of the degree/specialization?

2) are you double majoring to compliment your degree, at all, and in what?

These questions are of course to get more insight & experiences, but also out of genuine curiosity and interest in what others are doing, and how they will be utilizing their degrees :)

I’m suspecting it does but does anyone actually
know

I don’t know if this kind of post is allowed, but I genuinely don’t know what to do lol.
One of my professors for an online synchronous class is not at all technologically literate, and it’s starting to feel like a genuine waste of time. Today, we easily spent the first 20 minutes of class just trying to help them publish what we needed and make sure everyone actually had access to it. Even after all that, I’m 99% sure it still wasn’t done completely correctly.
I just don’t understand how someone is supposed to be a guide, educator, and mentor of sorts while being so unfamiliar with the basic technology and structure needed to run an online class. I completely understand not being great with technology, but when the class itself is online and a the major of class is being spent troubleshooting basic things, it feels like it isn’t worth it.
Is this even worth following up on? If so, how can I go about it? I feel like emailing a counselor or department chair would just come across as whiny and end with some version of “just deal with it.”
Can’t wait for a fun semester :|

Literally just moved into the dorms and I’m looking for people to flex with close by. I’m not crazy competitive in league, mostly just want a group to play with to chill and don’t tilt after a map. Just send me a dm if you wanna play.

I’m looking for answer on to why my fafsa refund still hasn’t come in. I’m currently a freshman as sdsu and my fafsa has already paid for all my tuition and everything but I still haven’t gotten my refund. Everyone around me including friends and family have gotten theirs. Anyone know why or what’s going on?

Hey everyone, I just started an instagram account for fantasy football enjoyers at SDSU. If anyone is interested, follow @ sdsu_fantasy_football on Insta. Join the club!!!

I have a photography project for a class where I need some models. Is there a job or classified board I can post to?

I am a grad student who just joined and all I want to know is some chants or songs to remember since I will be in the student section (around Northwest Gate entrance).

It will be my first D1 football event so yeah. Also I'll be happy to partake in any pre game events.

I’m in Ochem chem232 and bio204 rn. Wanna have someone to go to class together and study for exams together. I’m a junior microbiology cls major. DM me

Looking for someone that can take a look at my car or knows a place that doesn’t charge much. Makes squeaky noises when I’m turning , going over bumps, and when I push from gas to break.

Transferring Fall 2028 from a community college for a Construction Management degree

Trying to pick between SDSU and CSULB. Anyone been through either program?

Curious about:

\*\*•\*\* Program quality / industry connections    
\*\*•\*\* Cost of living    
\*\*•\*\* Internship/job placement into construction PM roles

I was wondering if SDSU students get access to Wolfram Alpha Pro via their SSO. I tried logging in with my SDSU email and didn't get anything, but I wanted to ask here on the off chance that we do get access and we just have to jump through a hoop or two to get it. Any info on this would be really helpful! Thanks.

I really want to transfer to SDSU but I don’t know if my stats are good enough. I live in Washington and I got a 2.8 in high school but did dual enrollment in college and recieved my AA with a 3.5.
Now i’m going to UW bothell which is a Four Year university in washington and I’m trying to 4.0 all my classes this quarter so I can transfer to SDSU for fall of 2027.
I’m also applying for Sociology. Do i have a chance?

When are Soccer Pickups usually throughout the week? Also, where at? Trying to get back to playing.

Hi y'all. Sorry if I'm misunderstanding something here - and before anyone mentions it, yes I do plan on going to the financial office to talk about this. It's just that it's a Sunday and I'm going to have to wait until tomorrow.

I swear that up until very recently my Fall26 tuition was totally covered by financial aid and I had no pending payments due wrt that. Then I check my sdsu email and I have an email sent exactly 1 day ago (Aug. 29) that says my financial aid total has been adjusted; now I owe over 3k+ in tuition that was due 9 fucking days ago?

Mostly I'm curious if this has happened to anyone else? Or if it sounds like maybe I'm missing a key detail? I really don't know what the hell is going on. It feels like all this university wants from me is more money at every turn.

Hey,

I injured my arm and I had real trouble getting my backpack and my instrument to class (I am a music major). Is there a support service to help me get to class?
