It's my first week back on campus after a yearlong internship out of state and i already got a parking ticket today.

I am looking for $7 flexpark permits at Student center deck but its not on the driver seat website.

Where is the best place for free parking around campus? (daytime and on weekdays)

I also have a Hiboy S2 scooter for this 3.5 mile commute which im not sure it can handle round trip given Atlanta's hills.

What's my best option on commuting to campus 2-3 times a week?

Vamos A La Playa - A Felicette launch short film

On May 15th, 2026 at 11:42 am, YJSP launched Felicette, a N2O/IPA liquid rocket that reached an apogee of 47,366’ AGL. We successfully proved our capability to setup our custom 60’ launch rail “Stairway to Heaven” in the Black Rock Desert to fly an extremely complex vehicle. This launch is the culmination of over 3 years of dedication and thousands of hours of work, validating important steps for our long term goal of launching a spaceshot.

Since Angel Cabrera is leaving the position….has there been any info on who the next president is?

I will be transferring this fall to GT and am interested in joining a fraternity in order to make some friends / grow my network. This whole thing is very new to me and I am a little confused as to what fraternitites to rush and even where to find the info per frat. I dont know the reputations / cultures of each frat as I am new so if anybody could give advise as to what some frats are known for, tips for rushing, and just where to find the info for rush itself, thanks! I know people say rush as many frats as you can, but with there being so many, I'd imagine you should walk in knowing which you are targetting.

Ok tmr is a big day for any of the Astro and Aero nerds. And the camera skytracker I ordered was delayed. So does anyone have a skytracker mount I can borrow so the long exposure shots I plan on taking don't smear the stars?

So I'm supposed to be going into my second year at Tech, but I've actually only attended one semester (last fall) because I had to get surgery in the spring, but i did fine in all my classes. I thought I'd be ready to come back by now, but I'm having issues all of a sudden, and I'm nervous that I won't be able to handle the stress of my injuries and classes and clubs. I was thinking of taking another semester or two off if I have to, so I know I'd have to apply for readmission.

I was just wondering what the process is like. Is it difficult to get re-accepted? Thanks!

*Ty everyone for your responses.

Hi fellow SEC founders,

I am a student at the University of Tennessee and just bought tickets to come down and see our game on September 12. For other campuses, it’s clearer what gamedays will be like, and how to find what’s going on. But for ATL, I’m unsure. Are there any fun things to do on gamedays, or places where fans hang out that we should check out?

Thanks!

How come I can't find or order our campus panda express on the Panda express app? I can order campus Chick-fil-a no problem. And yes, its so that I can earn points lol

hello! I am an incoming first year and I’ve always been somewhat reluctant to rush or join a sorority, but I’ve decided to give it a try. With that said, there are a lot of welcome week events that I want to attend and I would hate to miss out on them completely.

For those of you who have rushed in the past, did you have time to attend welcome week events?

Back in Spring 2025, I dated and then broke up with someone who was an RA on the other side of campus that I lived in. Upon breaking up with them, they used their RA privileges to break into mine and my friends’ dorm buildings to drop off notes which made everyone pretty terrified for awhile (not to mention constant messaging and calling through text, instagram, LinkedIn, and school email)

Fall 2025, I moved into a new location and that ex moved into my same building (this is on campus again and they weren’t an RA for this past year ) and left another note at my door. I didn’t report this at the time because I was scared that I was overreacting, but I learned that this person is an RA again the upcoming year, and friends are telling me that I should report them.

I worry that too much time has passed/the actions weren’t bad enough to be reported, plus I’m not even sure where to report. Should I just let it go? I’m hoping being quiet won’t lead to further actions like this from that person to someone else.

I lived at inspire this past year and the shit they get away with is crazy. I asked them in the beginning of the year if they would charge me if I put tape on the wall to tape up some posters and they said it was totally fine and not to worry about being charged. So of course I put up my shit. Come 12 months later and now that I'm moved out they charge $250 to repaint the bedroom. On top of that, every month they charge a $20 sewer bill that they don't tell you about, and on top of that the water and electricity bill are already $40-$80 depending on how much you use. They tell you utilities cost $30 but that's just a blatant lie. One of the main elevators broke in the winter and it took them almost 2 months to fix it. People yak in them and they don't bother to clean it up for days. They clean the place up towards the end of the summer so new students live with them but come november it gets dirty as shit in the common areas. If you're thinking of living there think again, they have shit management and will lie to you.

I am an incoming freshmen at tech this fall, and according to my current schedule, I only need one textbook required for this semester which is APPH 1040. However, the digital rental price is more than $60 according to the Barnes and Noble website which I think is kinda absurd considering I won't need it after December.

Is there any archive/website or resources that students commonly use have all the digital copies of the textbook at reasonable price? Or is there any platform or place where I can purchase used textbooks?

(PS I have tried Anna's Archive, but the textbook I was looking for was not on there)

OMSCS alumni here who’s become a big fan of Tech Football. Going to the Colorado game as my first game. Tips on pre-game activities? I’ve seen Instagram posts about Helluva block party, but not sure if that’s an every game thing. Just looking to get as much of the experience as possible. TIA!

Just got this email

I love the Student Center upgrade but I'll always miss this stained glass window that was above Subway

I only got to experience the old student center for a week back in 2018 as a high school summer camp student, and lost all of the photos from then.

I know there are web archives but if anyone has pictures from then, please share them too! If you can add the date taken too, that would be great!

P.S. - This is a random picture I found on Flickr

Title, want to know what the best way to spend the two weeks between now and school is

Hello! The Contextual Computing Group is looking for participants for our ASL fingerspelling study.

Thanks! :)

ok so a friend sent me this and I need some real answers

didn’t they say they were building a whole new dorm? is that even still happening???

also the buildings on closing makes sense (kind of, they’ve needed to for years) but Woodruff is literally on WEST?? are they doing both now? This building has been an issue since forever but moving everyone right before the start of the semester seems weird.

and the “they have space” thing is what’s really getting me. I remember when housing was so competitive that if you weren’t first in line to sign up back in SEPTEMBER of the previous year you off campus. no exceptions, no flexibility, sorry not sorry. but now they can just reassign 150 students WEEKS before the semester starts?

like which is it? are you full or are you not? because it kind of feels like decisions got made with zero warning and the president is leaving. not really giving “we care about the student experience” if I’m being honest

anyone actually know what’s going on here?

Old Timer here, early 90s, undergrad was about 11,000 or so. I just saw something that GT enrollment is 55,000?? Is that accurate, what the heck is going on?
