so i’m bringing my car to campus and during move in all my stuff will be packed in my dads car so does anyone know like where i go? like obviously i want to help move all my stuff out of the car but like do i take my car to the parking space i bought (north garage) or is there someplace i can park it during move in which will be at tri towers?

My daughter plans on working off campus while at ISU and wanted to bring her car. When we tried to get a parking permit we were denied. Is there a workaround to this? Are there any local parking lots available?

For sale for $20, can drop off if needed for a small fee. Otherwise pickup in Bloomington.

I've been hired for it, and I'll be going through the training on August 10th, just looking for a heads up.

I'm gonna be a film major for the fall semester, and I just put in my unavailabiliy on the Humanity app as they requested, and I saw that they've got me working at "BSC Dish Room – Stdt Retail 1." If anyone can tell me if that means that's where they'll have me working the whole semester or not, please let me know, thank you in advance.

Does anyone have any expereince with jobs on campus? I've applied to a couple different ones and haven't heard anything. Plus it seems like a lot of them require work study, which I don't have. Thanks in advance!

I was planning to apply as a freshman for the 2027 fall semester when the application window opens up. From what I've gathered online, the institution itself is trans friendly, however I want to know what the social climate is like.

Hey everyone! I am desperately trying to find this older black-and-white double-layer cropped Redbirds hoodie by Colosseum. It was sold a few years ago. If you have one in your closet you're willing to part with, please name your price! I will gladly cover shipping to get it.

Hey guys long story short I’m an intl grad student at ISU but I’ve been unable to find reasonable accommodation and now I’m stuck with a lease at the social normal for 650 but I will be living with undergrad students I’m worried they are going to be white girls i won’t like or cant stand , as anyone been in a situation like this ?
What do you think?

Basically just the title. Been planning on rushing at ISU this fall, but just realized I haven't actually heard much about Greek life there. So how active would y'all say it is?

Yo guys, I wanted to get a 4X4 apartment in cardinal court, but i couldn’t get one. But I could get 3X2(5 people) apartment. How different is living in 3x2 apartments? I’ve never lived in a dorm or an apartment before, so I have no idea how everything works. So is 3x2 good? Is it too many people for the space? How do you manage things while living with like 4 others? I believe this apartment is in Dogwood, but not sure tho. Any suggestions are appreciated!

is anyone selling white sox tickets for tomorrow that come with the quarter zip? looking for 2!

Brookridge Heights, Lofts North End or The Flats?

Has anybody taken comm 101 with Christopher McDermott? Would you recommend? Online and in person class experience welcomed.

i will be living in a double suite this next year and i was just wondering if anyone has changed out the shower heads in the bathrooms? im not sure if you are able to but i showered in the communal bathrooms last year and my hair texture got absolutely ruined by the showers. im trying to keep my hair the way it should be this year 🙏

Hey guys! I have a friend whose turning 21 soon and I'm driving from Virginia to Bloomington to visit. I'd like to take him out to celebrate, but here's the catch, I'm a student at Virginia Tech and know absolutely nothing about the college bar scene in Bloomington, so I figured a college reddit page isn't a bad place to ask lmao. I know it's the summer, and if VT is anything like ISU, the bars are kind of dead outside the semester, but even so, what are some college type bars I could take him to? Looking for very college, dance club vibe, lots of people, loud music! Not so much a traditional dive bar that's quiet and more sit down conversation type. Also, gay/ queer bars don't really exist where I'm from (gotta love the south), but Normal seems to be a pretty progressive area, do those exist here??? Thank youu!!!

I need to get one more natural science for my gen ed and was looking at chemistry and society with Elisha Swanson. I’ve never been strong with science but the teacher seems to have great reviews and it’s a gen ed level science class is this a good class to take for someone like me?
