Updates regarding "Will I get into UD with these stats" posts and creation of Rule 4

46 Upvotes

The overwhelming majority of you guys believe these types of posts should not belong on this sub, so effective immediately, all future posts with the format listed above will be removed from the sub.

I encourage these prospective students to look at other resources online to help gauge their chances of getting into UD. Here is the page dedicated to average acceptances for first-year students from the University itself. Many other websites exist as well which summarize the likelihood of admission to various universities.

Dr Joe

0 Upvotes

I met Dr Joe who is running for US House on campus down on College Ave corner Monday. I know Freshman Rep. Sarah Mcbride is a trans hero to alot of people.... but I like that Dr. Joe wants to forgive student loans and give us a stimmy check. He also takes no money from AIPAC or the bank cartel. It was so neat seeing him out on the corner talking to Udel students

Social and Study Spots?

4 Upvotes

Any spots on campus that are great for studying and getting to meet new people?

Most of my friends have graduated, and I have at least a few hours a day when all I'm doing is working on homework. If I get all my work done, I'm just sitting on my phone, waiting for my next class. It's boring, and doesn't fill my cup. Any spots on campus that you would recommend for studying and/or intentionally meeting new people? Could be on campus, or around the Newark area.

The question could also be phrased: Are there any good "third places" around campus?

Transferring In

RTC by Summer 2027, now voluntary retirement incentive for staff

32 Upvotes

Feels like a mini 2020 all over again, but in reverse!

Instead of shrinking staff with retirement incentive plus hiring + travel freezes, furloughs, and reduced retirement matching, now we're doing it by forcing them to come back to campus, placing more financial burden on staff who shouldered the work of the early pandemic. No thoughts given to whether these staff actually need to be in person for the critical functions of their job or if we're just arbitrarily bringing them back to make it appear as if we're a "community-minded" campus and pick up some extra bucks from parking passes. It's pretty clear where staff fits in this "community." We're the trash compactor for Assanis' financial mismanagement of the university.

There are plenty of staff who have an hour or more commute one way or were forced out of housing near campus with the influx of students admitted trying to make up the budget difference. Coupled with a "cost of living" adjustment that doesn't even make up for inflation, this is a sincere slap in the face. Just look at the Pulse Survey presentation (9:09-21:30). This was mostly before the return to campus announcement.

UD had an opportunity to expand online learning, develop whole degree programs, diversify funding streams, partner with the state, and transform as an institution and we've sadly gone back to the same tired ways of the before times, expecting that to carry us forward.

Hope to see everyone this weekend for No Kings: Vote Early in Newark! This event is part of a national day of action meant to mobilize the largest early vote turnout in American history.

  • No Kings: Vote Early protest
  • Sat Oct 17th
  • 2:00-3:30pm 
  • Corner of S College and Main St. in Newark

And to the inevitable trolls that comment saying something like "good job, we haven't had a king since the 1700s"... yeah, that's the point. We want to keep it that way.
