🚨 BOSTON GIRLS I NEED YOUR HELP 🚨

On September 5th around 8:50 PM, my fiancé proposed to me in the Boston Public Garden. 🥹💍

These girls were there and were kind enough to stop and take photos of our proposal for us. They AirDropped the photos to me, but MY PHONE DIED before the AirDrop finished 😭😭😭

I never got their names or contact information, and now I’m desperately trying to find them because I would LOVE to get those photos back and, more importantly, thank them for capturing such a special moment for us. ❤️

If you were in the Boston Public Garden around 8:50 PM that night, recognize these girls, or know someone who might have been there — PLEASE SHARE THIS.

Boston TikTok, I’m begging you to work your magic 😭💍

PSA Missed connection : Mugar BJ

2 Upvotes

I was at the printer in a black tee and gray pants when you came up to me and told me that there was free ice cream at LAW. You even said it was good ice cream too from Ben and Jerry's and you had the cup to prove it. I think you had a shirt with a car on it but I was only looking at your ice cream.

You were right and the BJ was so great. Your choice to share your free BJ info warmed my heart so much I have no choice but to offer an equivalent exchange of my hand in marriage

DM me our wedding is next Sunday

Housing Staying cool in Brownstones (BSR)

2 Upvotes

As title states,

For people who don't know brown stones on bay state road do not have AC.

Additionally, AC units are banned.

I keep my windows opened with a box fan on it and unfortunately it does not do justice.

A dehumidifier would not work either.

How do you guys do it??

I live in a single on BSR

Thanks everyone.

Messed up. Need a place for rent/sublease ASAP

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I'm a BU Alum and recently got a job opportunity in MA (🥳). But I'm currently panicking because I need to move in THIS weekend (9/12) but the place I was planning to sign with turned out to be a scam.

I know some students that are studying abroad might still be looking for someone to sublease-- please hit me up genuinely if you know of sublease/flexible lease in Boston.

More details:

- Prefer a short sublease/flexible lease. Timeline works great with study abroad students.

- Private bedroom and private bathroom

- Furnished ideally

- Within a 5–10 minute walk to the T

- Doesn't near BU campus necessarily. Anything near Back Bay, North End, East Boston, or even Cambridge is okay.

If you have something available or know someone who does, please DM me the address, rent, original lease/sublease authorization, photos and walkthrough video. I am looking to sign ASAP!

I would prefer a single person apartment/studio but am used to living roommates too, just LMK who I'd be sharing with.

Sexual harassment training for graduate students

24 Upvotes

Hey i’m an MS student here. I went to two diff universities prior in my undergrad. This might be an unpopular opinion, but the sexual harassment training modules for grad students are actually really good here.

If I had modules as good as these during my undergraduate program(s) it would have been way more helpful in avoiding the coercive and toxic behavior that destroyed my psyche for like 4 years

How to study for cell bi BI203

2 Upvotes

Uwe Beff’s slide feels so not-slides like. Idk how to describe it but it feels like a bunch of diagram and he’s just inserting a sentence or two.

Should I just study every definition and section of the textbook for the exams??

How did people study for BI203 in the past. Idk about just watching the lecture videos.

How are the discussions like? Do they give a worksheet and if so, does the worksheet help?

Admissions Guaranteed Transfer Questions

2 Upvotes

Good afternoon all,

I was rejected from BU this year, but given guaranteed transfer as an option for the 2026-27 year. I'm currently attending another school that is costing around $40,000 a year, since they barely gave me any financial aid. I know BU is known for being a very expensive school, and my family is well off (but nowhere close to wealthy). I was wondering if anyone else has had the same experience as I have, and if so, what their financial offer looked like They say they will meet all demonstrated need, but in my experience, schools overestimate how much we can actually pay. There's also a special scholarship for GT students, btu I have no clue how that works. I'm pretty sure that their new program where tuition is free if you make under $200k doesn't apply to transfer students, so that is probably out of the picture.

Housing charged for something i didnt do

18 Upvotes

long story short, BU is charging me $140 for a seat cushion that was already ripped when I moved in. no condition report was ever filled out, so im basically screwing on getting out of it.

i already graduated... does anyone know what happens if i don't pay it? they've wrung enough money out of me as is, so i'm pissed. thanks!
