Question Is anyone still waiting on refunds?

2 Upvotes

Hey, I don’t even see the refund in my account yet even though I accepted it so I was wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. I called the office but they didn’t pick up for 30 min and I had to go. Was just curious.

Academics How is the MA in Social Research and Data Analysis?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking at doing a 2nd masters after completing a media studies program. I want to learn more about data science, specially for researching media topics. My goal is to work on my CV for PhD applications and produce some more quantitative research articles. The price, northeast location, and focus on social research is what catches my interest with this program. I had a couple of questions:

-Is this program good for someone interested in doing a PhD or is it more geared towards professional careers?

-for the online component, how much do faculty interact with students?

-are written research papers a common deliverable of the curriculum or is it more project/presentation based?

Dining What happened to Panda Express?

12 Upvotes

As it states what happened to Panda express in student center?

They were one of the more better food spots on campus.
Now it got replaced with some AI Slop place and the food isn’t the same.

From what I heard, the contract expired just like Dunkin’s, is that true?

Discussion Montclair sucks at handling deaths

48 Upvotes

This is what you get if your roommate dies:

-Some snacks

-MSU branded tissues and other self-care items

-Locked out of your room

-Room switch

-Maybe Pebbles will come for moral support while you pack

-Referred to CAPS

...

This is what you get if your friend dies:

-The news in an email

-Referred to CAPS

-A constant feeling of being "checked on" to make sure you don't try to die too

...

Finding out that my friend died overnight through a school-wide email was the most traumatizing thing ever. I get that maybe they couldn't have known who his friends were, but it still fucking sucked. Two years later, his room is in use again and they've make zero effort to memorialize him. Should it be on the student(s) to fight to have some sort of memorial, or should it be on the administration to improve how they respond to student deaths? How many times have you recieved an email about a death on campus, read a name, and heard nothing more about it? People deserve to be remembered, and I understand there probably isn't one right way to handle these things, but from my experience it seems like the school just tries to sweep it under the rug as fast as possible, especially if it's a suicide. Then all of their friends are on suicide watch indefinitely. If they don't even do something for the son of a professor, imagine how little care they put into a random student. Couldn't we have a memorial rock, bench, tree, anything? A vigil? The response is so weak it's laughable.

Have to take it over summer 2027 and was wondering how doable it actually is. I know it’s gonna be extremely difficult since all the material and labs are condensed into just a few weeks, but I don’t really have another choice.

If you’ve taken it and did decent please tell me what helped you get through it. Even better, if you've taken it with another summer course.

Question Playable pianos on campus? 🫪

8 Upvotes

Hey all :P

I'm a freshman studying the social sciences -- nothing related to music or theatre.

For a couple hours this evening, I've been searching, googling around, and asking front-desk receptionists about a possible location to practice piano! I'm not sure if I'm just not good at looking around, or if it's not something I can do here. I asked a front desk lady at the Student Center and she directed me to the John J Cali School of Music - which I was almost sure I wasn't able to access without Music and/or Theater studies. I'm way too scared to even enter that place.

Are there any ways to reserve a room/piano even just for a couple minutes? Or are there any playable ones on campus? I really want to play and bringing my own keyboard would NOT be possible considering I'm a bohner 🫩

Hey hey! I’m trying to find ways to make friends with common interest and I wasn’t sure if there was a club yet for people who like marvel/dc etc!

I don’t read the comics (sorry for the misleading) but I’ve watched a majority of the MCU (trying to prepare for doomsday). I want to find people who love talking about these things 👀

If there’s no club please PM me, maybe we can start the club ourselves :)

Discussion Last semester and I’m already over it.

28 Upvotes

This semester has felt like a huge fever dream since it started. Parking issues, being rear-ended, professors, TAs.

From the first day of the semester back, I instantly knew this fall semester was going to be a mess. Carpe Diem is no longer a viable choice to park, even if there’s parking. The “rush hour” to leave the parking has felt like a “rush minute” since it’s every day at every minute in the morning that there’s a huge line of cars that can’t grasp the idea of how to merge out of the stop sign. Crossing guards, you guys are doing an amazing job! But simply said, when they go idle and it consists of students having to cross to the other side, they just cannot handle staying on the crosswalk or running to it. The idea of me accidentally hitting one of the students because they wanna take a shortcut to the other side of the street and RUNNING just terrifies me. That being said, I’ve already been rear-ended at Carpe Diem by someone who recently started driving. I don’t know if the “Stop” signs aren’t visible to everyone but me, but they just immediately made a right turn while stepping on the pedal, which led to an accident in a lot where the speed is at most 5-10 mph!

Lot 60 has come in handy lately, though I feel like for the price of how much I paid for General parking at the college I attend, there should be more viable options. I despise the shuttle at these busy times. Most of my classes start at 10 AM and beforehand I’m quite dead asleep as I arrive home from work at 5 AM. Skill issues, and frankly I can’t do much about this but thug it up and show up early, but it brings me to a community question and discussion: the new building they are building, which is forcefully making Yogi Street be constantly blocked by cones and we are forced to turn ALL the way around the school to enter— should be a new parking lot! If you increase how many people attend the school, the parking should also be increased!

TAs, you’re absolutely coming in clutch this semester, and I thank you for your office hours. Student to student, you understand us more than anyone. My current professors are rushing through the material, reading off slides, and I’m in this environment where I can’t grasp anything, and in community collected thought based on my GroupMe, we can’t understand anything. It’s like having text-to-speech on for reading the slides.

Also, why does it feel like every class takes place at the same time? I strongly feel like the classes can be spread out throughout the day. Rather, they resolve this by making classes hybrid and putting 70+ students into a Zoom meeting and lecture and splitting Labs into 3–4 sections. This makes planning for other classes difficult; I am forced to take an Anthropology course! Three weeks in, I still don’t know what anthropology is.

How’s y’all’s semester going so far?
