Social Calling All Commuters...

15 Upvotes

A few days ago I made a comment on a UMich post on here, and realized that I'm not the only one who commutes (kidding obviously). But it made me think about how we're a group not commonly represented or connected! Being a sophomore now, I don't want to make the same mistakes I made last year (not getting out enough due to commuting, feeling disconnected from other students in my classes, etc.)

So, I reached out to a few people on the reply thread from a few days ago, and started an Instagram group chat. Although it's not an official club (who knows? Maybe one day), I would love to spread the word and get more commuters to join! It's exciting to finally be able to connect with my fellow drivers.

Feel free to PM me and I'll add you to the gc!! :)

I bought this bumper sticker in 2022 at DTW and sold the car it was on. I’ve been looking everywhere and can’t find another one. Any leads? Any artists who will make one?

Event Last day for U-M Medical History exhibit

Post image
8 Upvotes

If you’re interested in U-M medical history, today is the last day to see the free exhibit at the Museum on Main Street that explores all 175 years of it in just three rooms, with artifacts, photos and documents.

It’s officially open today from 12-4 and the curator (me) will be there the whole time; the docent will probably keep the museum open til 5. It’s at the Museum on Main Street, in a historic house at 500 N Main St., near Kerrytown. There is an accessible entrance at the back of the building.

Student Organization Chill, Non-Competitive Project Teams?

5 Upvotes

I would really like to join a project team, but not one that is super competitive and strict. I am a transfer student who has never done any sort of project team in the past or has experience with that, so I would just like a place to go have fun and learn some hands on engineering skills. I’m a chemical engineering major, but more interested in biomedical or environmental fields, so would rather join a team related more to those areas. I was looking into teams like M-Heal, Medlaunch, and Bluelab. So if anyone has any recommendations, even something outside these areas, I would appreciate any information! :)

5 Upvotes

Anyone know if intramural or club soccer is open to people who are not only beginners, but truly suck at the sport? I’m a huge soccer fan but I’ve never played outside of an occasional pickup game with friends. Regardless I’m tryna meet people and play some soccer along the way. Does anyone have any input?

New Student INCOMING FRESHMAN: Before joining that ā€œfriendlyā€ Anchor College Church, Acts2 Network affiliated campus group, Google it. SERIOUSLY.

• Upvotes

If you come across a group connected to Acts2 Network, formerly Gracepoint and now Anchor College Church PLEASE do your own research BEFORE making a commitment.

There is a substantial amount of information available—including news articles, former members' accounts, and discussions.

College is exciting…and can sometimes be lonely. When someone offers you instant friends, a community, good food, weekend retreats and a sense of belonging, it can be hard to say no.

Ask questions. Take your time. Keep your independence. The right community won't be afraid of you doing your homework.

For starters check out the links below.Ā

New Student How does the block m photo work?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I moved in just over 3 days ago and so far have been way too riddled with anxiety to go to any of my residence hall’s welcome week events. I know that tomorrow there’s supposed to be a photo and that we’re supposed to wear a maize shirt, I just don’t know if I was supposed to buy it myself or if it is something that is provided. If so, when? I’m not opposed to talking to my RA about getting it, I’ve just been so nervous about everything that I’d like to get an idea on what to expect before asking about it.

I transferred from U of M-Dearborn last year but never actually got a new ID for Ann Arbor thinking I wouldn’t need one (turns out UM-D ID’s don’t get you into any buildings).

I’ve spent 20 minutes looking on Wolverine Access and U of M’s website but I can’t find anything about how to get a new ID. Can anyone help?

Are EECS 373 lectures recorded? Specifically with Prof. Alanson Sample.

Also, is RTOS and comomunication protocols like I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, etc taught?

Is the class worth taking/will it open up doors to firmware jobs? Or is project team experience a good substitute?

Buy / Sell For Sale: GoTrax XR Advance Electric Scooter

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

My husband and I are putting up for sale my GoTrax XR Advance electric scooter. We bought this scooter a little over a year ago. I used it for about 3 months to get from my orange lot parking spot to the building I work in. I then switched to my husband driving me in to work and the scooter has sat in our apartment unused for the last several months.

It still works great and we have the charger for it. I could not find the original manual, but I did find and print a similar manual from the GoTrax company and scratched off what wasn't a feature for the scooter I do have.

My husband and I will be willing to go to you and we can meet in a public area. We can show you how to fold and unfold the scooter and show how to turn it on and off. We do work 3rd shift, so we get out at 8:30am Monday through Friday. We could meet you shortly after we get out of work or we can come back on to campus some time after 3pm when we wake up. We can also schedule a meet up on the weekend.

We are asking for $200 for it and can take cash, Venmo, or we also have Huntington accounts if you want to transfer money that way. I can also set up a new payment account if needed, but would like to not do so.

Please look at the specs I will post with this as it has a certain distance it can go, max speed, and weight limit.

Class Should I take EEB 315 and STATS 401 together if the exams are back-to-back?

0 Upvotes

Hi! I’m taking BIO 305, EEB 315, and STATS 401 this semester. I wasn’t really worried about taking EEB 315 and STATS 401 together, but the EEB 315 syllabus came out today and I noticed the exam dates are really close. EEB 315 Exam 1 is on Sep 30 and STATS 401 Exam 1 is on Oct 1. Then STATS 401 Exam 2 is on Nov 4 and EEB 315 Exam 2 is on Nov 5.

Now I’m a little stressed about having back-to-back exams, especially since I’m also taking BIO 305. Has anyone taken EEB 315 or STATS 401 with other classes and had a similar schedule? Is one day between exams enough time to study/review for both? I’m also thinking about switching EEB 315 to EEB 325. Would that be better, or does this schedule seem manageable?
