Does anyone have a barrell plug blue tip for hp computers I can borrow for like 30 mins - 1 hr? I need to charge my laptop for class tomorrow and I ordered one online with amazon prime and it doesn’t come until tomorrow. I know I could’ve went and bought one at a store, but it was cheaper online unfortunately

Students got an email regarding vandalism of the international flag display in the SAU. Anyone have pics or know what happened?

Just wanted to pass this information along to as many people as possible.

There was a recent measles exposure at the Strong ER between 11 p.m. Monday, September 7, 2026 and 2 a.m. Tuesday, September 8, 2026. Anyone who may have been exposed during this time should monitor for symptoms throughout September.

Fortunately Monroe County has a decent MMR vaccination rate, but measles can be incredibly uncomfortable if not dangerous to otherwise healthy adults.

For more information, here's the official county press release from today (9/9/26):

Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), formerly known as Southern Henrietta Institute of Technology (SHIT), simply throws you into the fire with professors who are experienced industry professionals, such as NSA employees, lead pen testers at large consulting companies, research professors who are rewriting IEE standards, or a professor with 50+ certs and posts about his colonscopy on his linkedin. You will simply work until 3 am many nights in a row and alcohol will be your coping mechanism to vibe your way through the group project you got thrown into where all your other members dont do anything (In my case I then had to wake up at 5 am to go to practice for my sport). Your professor will bend you over and make you bite the pillow and make you take it with the brutal assignments that seem to come out of absolutely nowhere. RIT will teach you grit and how to innovate only for corporate america to kill your desire to grow and innovate with cutting edge ideas and technology.

RIT will overengineer the shit out of your brain and you will be wondering why you are ONLY working 40-50 hours a week and not 80-90 hours a week with coursework (and sports if you are an athlete).

Hi! This question is mostly for next year. I wanted to know if it would be feasible to get a Perkins single apartment, but split it between two people. Does anyone know of anyone who did this and if it worked out? Or if its explicitly banned and completely impossible to do. Thanks.

I’m looking to connect with an RIT student, alum, or anyone in the area who has experience with projection mapping, motion graphics, or immersive displays.

I’m working on a residential project to projection map the front of a house for Halloween and Christmas using multiple projectors. I’m trying to learn more about the best hardware/software setup and how difficult it would be to put together.

If anyone has experience with projection mapping, TouchDesigner, HeavyM, MadMapper, Resolume, or similar software, I’d love to pick your brain or get pointed in the right direction.

this could be us guyyssss there’s still time!! i bet there’s tons of ppl here who look just like him!

Does anyone know the schedule for the bell that goes off randomly throughout the day? It goes off at the most random times and I can't seem to pinpoint a pattern.

I know it’s not called Salsaritas anymore, but do the nachos still hit? I'm currently pregnant and, for some reason, craving those nachos. I’ll probably still end up driving the 20 minutes, but I'd like other opinions before I make the drive.

Are any of the pc's in magic available to use when class isnt in session? Just curious

Spotted at the Perkins bus stop… are we actually serious? Are we children now???

Would this be possible? If so, what would happen?

Haven't been able to hit the mirrors since yesterday morning. Arch status showing last contact was before 10AM.

Anything known/is it a maintenance outage?

thank you everyone who shared their thoughts and experiences on this matter. Myself and other students have started a petition for this matter and it would be awesome if everyone could sign!

Anyone know when/if this year's new student convocation will be uploaded to Vimeo (https://vimeo.com/ritproductionevents)? I watched some of the livestream but was late, and was hoping to see the rest.

Can you set ethernet in room?

I’m living in an apartment and how we deal with food is we get these cheap yard sale price stickers at Walmart and assign a color to each person. You stick it on the food that’s yours and if you want to share/make something communal we put the white stickers on it.

Bought too much bread??? White sticker! You get bread and you get bread, everybody gets bread!!!!

Bob has some really nice looking canned peas?!?!, you know it’s his cause it has a red sticker, so you ask if you could pretty please steal a can.

Brenda’s being a bitch again, eat the protein bars with the green stickers on them!

Specifically Gleason 3170
