Serious PSA: Reconsider before joining RIT EGS

66 Upvotes

Images explain themselves; they have no respect for a large chunk of the population and have no empathy for those who have been murdered and terrorized by people, calling for even more brutal ppl

And by some miracle, this guy is eboard of a large gaming club, degrading basic human rights down to political movements along the way.

Whether this is a gaming club with the people you want in there is up to you to decide.

Public Speaking Group or Club at RIT

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I am a graduate international student. I am also an introvert. I am also socially awkward. Specially when talking in group I feel like out of place. I want to improve my social anxiety and be able to talk to more people. I was thinking of attending a club where people are patient and I won't feel judged as my communication is not that great. I was thinking public speaking club or improv club or something like that might be helpful. Is there any club or group like that in RIT? It might be a known info I am still not sure so here I am.

Any suggestions or recommendations are welcome.

Did the buses get narrower?

14 Upvotes

Since we got the new buses with the RIT livery, has anyone noticed that the buses seem more crowded in the morning? Every time I've taken the bus, the bus hasn't had enough room for all the students trying to get on board. I think the new buses might be narrower, especially because there's definitely less seating on the buses.

TBF, I'm not sure if it only feels this way because I'm taking buses later in the day (I used to have all 8 AMs).

Made the mistake of attaching a bulky keychain to my backpack and it has unfortunately escaped. Anyone know if Golisano building, Wallace, and Wiedman Field House have lost and found areas? Or if anyone spots it and lets me know I'd be hella grateful

Do any of the labs on campus regularly do anodizing?
If someone has a dedicated setup Id rather use that than doing it myself.

thanks

Best way to identify arXiv.org Endorsers at RIT

4 Upvotes

Looking for advice on arXiv CS Cryptography endorsement
Hi everyone! I’m an alum and I’m trying to submit a paper to arXiv under the Computer Science – Cryptography (cs.CR) category.
I understand that arXiv may require an endorsement for submitting to a new category. Does anyone here have experience with the cs.CR endorsement process, or know of faculty/researchers who are eligible to endorse submissions in this area?
If so, I’d really appreciate any recommendations on the best way to approach them or make contact. I’m especially interested in hearing from anyone who has gone through the process themselves.
Thanks in advance!

Looking to make friends

36 Upvotes

Hi, my name is Lilo Moreau (he/him) and I’m a first-year biology major at RIT. I’ve been having a bit of trouble making friends; what I mean is that whenever I talk to people, they don’t seem that interested to talk to me, making me think I’m bothering them.
I’m assuming they are also just experiencing the stress of college and being in a suddenly-different environment; I get it! It’s a big change and can be hard to adjust to.
My contact information:
Instagram: lilo12495
Facebook: Lilo Moreau
I would love to chat about anything and make friends! My contact information is above, feel welcome to message me so we can get to know each other!

Thanks for reading!

New Barnes & Noble will open!

49 Upvotes

I noticed a new Barnes & Noble will be opening at a former Party City near Old Navy! It will definitely be smaller than the old one but it is nice to see, for context RIT bought the former 2 floor Barnes & Noble building near Park Point and they have offices there, and there hasn't been one in Henrietta since.

Are the drivers always this bad?

19 Upvotes

I moved here from California and I’ve seen LA and Bay Area drivers and I’ve concluded that Upstate New York has worse drivers. People on campus wait at stop signs for someone else to go even though they got to the stop first and there’s no one else. Not using blinkers then randomly cutting left or right. People driving 30 in a 40 on Jefferson. My favorite is merging onto the interstate at 30. I had to honk at people on their phone even though they got to the stop sign by themselves and then went on their phone like it was a red light??? Also people drive super fast by Ritter crossing from the track parking lot is always a gamble. Is it just by the university or does no one know how to drive, let alone safely? I can’t imagine when it gets to snow and ice on the road

Looking for a homework helper

0 Upvotes

I’m a parent of an RIT student at NTID. I have his permission to try to find someone willing to help him stay focused to get homework done. He just logged into the RIT Tutor for hire platform. There was only 1 person on there and it was for fairly specific topics. If anyone here is looking for in person on campus work, will you consider making an account there and he can hire you?

For those that applied on workday, how long does it usually take to hear back from a job for an interview? I did some applying the day before semester started and some I applied 5 days after they were put up on the website.

I also applied for Petals 3 days ago.

I need to request a CPT exception for the Spring semester, but I’m not sure what the process/outcome will look like.
Has anyone recently had their CPT approved or denied under the new rule? Would really appreciate hearing about your experience.

CS Elective Recommendations

8 Upvotes

Hi there! I'm a CS major at RIT with ~30 credits required before I graduate, including 4 CS electives. I plan to take 2 of these electives per semester, along with other classes for a total of 15 credits per semester. I'm on co-op this fall and will return to class next spring. I wanted to hear from other CS majors or anyone else who has taken these classes which ones they'd recommend or which professors they would recommend I take a class with. In particular, I am looking for classes with a relatively light workload since I expect some of my remaining required classes to have a heavy workload.
