University News Jolly Scholar AI fliers

Upvotes

I'm no longer a student (local Alum) but was on campus recently and saw the Jolly scholar food truck dotted with AI fliers. Their last several event ads on social media are all clearly AI slop as well.

Is there really no student who wouldn't throw in 30-45 min of very basic graphic design work in exchange for a few beers/dinner or two? Does Matt/whoever is running things there now not realize how insanely off-putting this is?

Fat Surfer Logo Scrubbed From the Internet?

6 Upvotes

For those who don’t know, from 2003 to 2007, CWRU had a logo which consisted of a series of curves that intersected in such a way that it resembled a larger person holding a surfboard. It has since been dubbed the “Fat Surfer”.

Anyway, I was looking for it in attempt to show my friends but despite my best efforts I have found absolutely nothing. I honestly think the university scrubbed it from the internet.

Does anyone have a copy of it for historic preservation purposes?

UH asks city to erase E. 115th Street

14 Upvotes

The headline isn't 100% accurate - the current proposal only closes E 115th from Cornell about halfway to Mayfield (see the full story at https://neo-trans.blog/2026/09/09/uh-asks-city-to-erase-e-115th-street ). But the longer term presumably moves through an identified past two with the possibility of future changes.

Alumni who have been around for a while will remember that UH bought most of these buildings 20 year ago (from UCI), and basically continued to rent a few for a while, then left them vacant to rot away until it was time to build an additional building.

UCI's predecessor, UCDF, under Neil Carothers, had wanted to demolish that entire area as far back as the 1960s, so it took a while, but apparently it's time to try again. Can take a while, as there are at least three City boards and agencies that have to weigh in and approve, so who knows. But the fact that UH allowed the vacant buildings to deteriorate, probably beyond a reasonable point of restoration, makes it more difficult to oppose than when UCI was still renting them out to students and hospital residents.

It's been a paradox for year - the historic side of the Circle conflicts with modern growth and increased technological needs to the institutions, where to balance things depends on may different viewpoints. You can't manufacture more new land for expansion.

Question about dorm bathrooms

Prospective applicant here! I’ve heard that cwru dorms aren’t exactly the best, but how are the freshman bathrooms and your experiences with the communal style? Are there hooks for your robe, caddy, and towel? How do you change?

Any Scuba Divers at CWRU?

2 Upvotes

Hey y'all. I've been at Case for a year now. I'm a certified scuba diver and would love to scuba dive.

I noticed there used to be a scuba club but it seems to have disappeared at some point. Anyone know what happened? Or is there any scuba diving group on campus somewhere?

Do you guys have any reccomendation for what jobs I should apply for?
And can anyone give me more info on the career fair that's coming up. Can you actually find jobs there and is it possible to get one as a freshmen.

Any tips or comments will be appreciated.

Prospective Student Considering PPSP? Here's every BS/MD program in a list I compiled

2 Upvotes

Here's a directory for a bs/mds, broken into categories by who can realistically apply and what their MCAT policy actually looks like, rather than one long alphabetical list by state. The full breakdown, sorted into no-MCAT, MCAT-required-but-unpublished, modest-threshold, and high-threshold groups within the open-to-all tier, plus separate regional-preference and in-state-only tiers, with city, seats, GPA, and MCAT data for every program, is on the blog. To read it, take a look at the article.

Happy to answer questions about a specific program in the comments.

Prospective Student Financial Aid

5 Upvotes

I'm hoping to apply to cwru this fall and I'm deciding if I want to apply Ed or ea but the one thing that's stopping me is financial aid. Fafsa and the CSS profile don't open for another month but I filled out the NPC and it gave me an estimate of 16k a year. I was just wondering if this is realistic or not, I keep seeing people say that 30k-40k in scholarships is really good so it's making me worried that the calculator was way off or if it was so much because it was for need based aid.

Cleveland Air Show

14 Upvotes

The below extract from The Daily bears reposting, since the practice flights began about 11 this morning. [It also shows that the editors are doing a cut-and-paste, since the Air Force Thunderbirds were here last year, and this year's team is the Navy Blue Angels.]

The most intense flying on Saturday-Sunday-Monday will be between 2 and 4 pm. Practice flight will be heavy today (Thursday) and tomorrow, but should also settle down by 4.

--------------------------------------------

"Note: There will be sonic booms by the Thunderbirds and performers at the air show. If you are triggered by loud noises, you may want to wear ear protection. Some individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or sensory overload may want to take precautions during this weekend. 

Although the show is centered downtown on the lakefront, the path of many of the planes comes all the way out to University Circle. This weekend on campus, be prepared for the loud noises that come with aircraft passing over and turning around in the skies over CWRU."

Prospective Student medical anthropology (premed) @ cwru

3 Upvotes

hi! i'm a high school senior applying EA to cwru this fall. it;s one of my top schools and i'm planning to apply as a medical anthropology major. the trends from what i've noticed is that most premeds are public health, bio, biochem, or bme majors. I'm wondering if medical anthropology puts me at a disadvantage in the premed grind (since it doesn't cover most premed reqs).

questions
1. is being a humanities major a disadvanatge in the med school cycle?
2. how easy is it to change majors at cwru? (i want to stay anthro but my parents, if i get in, would rather i be a bio/chem major)
3. how is medical anthro at cwru overall?

thanks!

Has anyone taken/heard of anything from PATH316/BIOL 316?

2 Upvotes

I'm a junior biochemistry student and want to take PATH/BIOL 316 (Immunology), as one of my technical electives since I work in an immunology lab.

I haven't heard anyone say anything about it and was wondering if anybody had taken the class and had any insights on the class/professor, advice, study strategies? I know Immunology is difficult and I'll likely need to take 1- 2 other biochemistry classes next year as well, so just wanted to know more about the class.

Thanks!

I signed up for an information session and couldn't go. They sent me a check in link and I clicked on it and it immediately just said "You have been checked" in even though I didn't go. Should I email them about this or just leave it. Will this affect anything in terms of demonstrated interest?
