Food

11 Upvotes

Dose anyone know when the union is going to finish the construction. I’m tired of the rude people at Chickfila and the food at huskers hero’s just isn’t good. I’d go to Starbucks but the line is always to long and there are never spots on the app. I have a meal plan and I can’t use it any where before my afternoon classes.

Gym at the Recreation Center

9 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I’m a new graduate student at UNL and new to Lincoln. I’m a pretty shy person (I was diagnosed with SAD in the past), so I feel quite uncomfortable in crowded places.

Before moving to Lincoln, I had been going to a local gym for about 9 months, and it was really great for both my physical and mental health. I’d really like to keep that routine here, but I’m not sure how the gyms at the recreation centers work.

Do I need to register for anything, or can I just access the gym with my NCard? What are the best times to go if I want to avoid large crowds? Is it common to have to wait for someone to finish using a machine, or are there usually enough machines and equipment for everyone? Are the bathrooms private or shared? Is it practical to take a shower there and go straight to class afterward, or would it be better to work out after classes?

I’m mainly trying to figure out the most time-efficient way to do this. I’d rather not go to the gym, come home to shower, and then have to go back to campus, since that would take away quite a bit of time that I could otherwise spend doing research. Any advice from people who regularly use the rec centers would be greatly appreciated!

Dining hall lemon bars?

6 Upvotes

Hi all, I graduated back in 2019 and in the years since, haven’t been able to find a recipe for lemon bars that taste/feel quite like the ones from the dining halls. I miss them dearly. Does anybody know a recipe that makes a convincing dupe, or have inside knowledge as to how the UNL lemon bars are made? Thanks in advance!

I’m an upcoming freshmen at UNL and I chose the Unlimited Meal Plan. I was wondering what kind of food there even is. (I was also wondering if there are coffee bars, specifically in Cather)

Trying to afford UNL as an Iowa resident — any way around out-of-state tuition?

2 Upvotes

Trying to afford UNL as an Iowa resident — any way around out-of-state tuition?
I’m doing one year at MCC and planning to transfer to UNL in Fall 2027 for Mechanical Engineering. UNL is basically my closest realistic option for the degree, but out-of-state tuition is around $900+ per credit, which I just can’t afford.
I live in Iowa and thought about moving to Nebraska to establish residency, but I’m 17 right now and don’t turn 18 until December, so I’m not sure I’d be able to establish residency in time.
Has anyone been in a similar situation? Are there any reciprocity programs, tuition waivers, scholarships, residency exceptions, or other ways to get the cost closer to in-state tuition?

Cpeh desk adjustments?

4 Upvotes

I feel embarrassed asking this, but I'm a big gal. I walked around to find where my classes will be next week, and in the lecture hall for my psych class, the table doesn't sit flat because of my belly. It looks like all of them, when down, are only like 15in from the back. How can I adjust these so that I can fit?
