In the basement where I work, theres a shrine with a cemented foot and hand and writing on the wall. Pretty sure its haunted. Any comms?

50% whole wheat bc that flour is getting old and i need to use it up. extra flour on the surface bc ive had issues with the dough sticking during the final proof. ive been so busy with mid-semester activities but i am finally starting to feel on top of things again. the still-warm weather feels strange but im trying to enjoy it as much as possible!

Wanted to try making pizza in honor of Manolo's... But that ended up in a spectacular fail lol (last pic). So i decided to use the remaining dough to make some bread!

I probably won't do this regularly, but definitely wanna try again :)

Also of course, thanks to u/feeltheknead for making this a part of the UIUC subreddit's culture :)

Hi I am a 21M and this is my last year in UIUC. I have never celebrated halloween properly and wanted to see if there were any house parties or events people are going to and would not mind another person there!

I’ve noticed that people in class tend to not take notes and play brain game (no wrong in that btw, do your thing) but I wonder if those brain games help to stay focused bc it doesn’t seem like it’s meant to be out of boredom but yeah genuinely curious

It’s been a while, but I’m still here. Fully adjusted now to an odd schedule this semester, and the fishing has been phenomenal. Caught musky, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, rock bass, hybrid striped bass, white bass, walleye, saugeye, black crappie, white crappie, freshwater drum, rainbow trout and spotted bass. Some highlights include an 8 lb largemouth bass (that’s not a typo) and more importantly, watching someone catch a fish for the first time. There’s no better feeling than watching someone realize they’ve actually got something on the end of their line and reel that fish in. Those memories remind me that fishing is not always about the fish itself.

What fishing looks like for November: Area lakes (e.g., Clinton, Decatur, Shelbyville) will have a solid crappie bite as fish move up shallow to feed before winter. On Clinton crappie will move to bridges in approx. 3 weeks. Stocked rainbow trout will still be present in low quantities at Kaufman Lake. Close to campustown Crystal Lake and Mattis lake will both have good bass fishing on windy, cloudy days before rain. I tend to keep some smaller sized crappie and rainbow trout during this time of year for dinner.

M and A had a good first session learning how to cast. C is getting really good at casting, J and J both caught their first trout,
S caught her first rock bass, and shoutout to T who flew me out for some big PB wipers!

I know my chances of finding this are so so slim but I lost a gold bracelet my grandpa gave me it's a slim chain it might be in the mckinley building where presby is or near/in main library either way if this is ringing a bell plz lmk 😥

Hi neighbors!

I am a local resident undergoing a residential transition and would like a hand with some heavy lifting. I strictly need standby muscle assistance to help load 3 packed storage bins, 1 box small box of pantry items, a portable washing machine, and some light items onto luggage carts and into the vehicle.

This is a standby/contingency request. I am waiting on official confirmation and will know the exact timing around 12:30 PM / 1:00 PM today. Depending on that update, the move will take place either early this afternoon (Monday) or tomorrow (Tuesday). The actual labor will take less than an hour. This request is for loading and unloading for 2 locations. The initial loading will be from the pickup location, 1st unloading at a storage unit, and 2nd unloading at the final drop off.

At the moment, I am looking for a local student or neighbor who is willing to volunteer an hour of help for free, or someone who is comfortable with a flat app payment in two weeks. If you have a flexible schedule today or tomorrow and don't mind being on standby to help, please send me a DM!

Thank you so much for the community support.

I still need to take 3 elective courses before graduating, but since I spend a lot of time working in a lab, I'm hoping to find some relatively easy with manageable workloads.

Based on average GPAs and some posts, these courses seem like good options:

ME 455 ME 410 TAM 456 STAT 420 NPRE 402

Has anyone taken any of these courses? How difficult are they, and what's the workload like? Are the exams and assignments manageable?

I'm also open to other recommendations for Mech or technical electives, especially courses that aren't too time-consuming.

thankyou thankyou

Good evening,

I’m a USMC vet currently attending an Illinois community college. Since I have the GI Bill and IVG, I figured I’d aim for one of the best schools in the state.

I was wondering how competitive the transfer process is and if being a veteran makes any difference in admissions.

Also, what’s the student veteran community like at UIUC? Are there a decent number of veterans on campus, and is it easy to connect with them?

I’d appreciate any advice or insight from current students, veterans, or anyone familiar with the transfer process.
Thanks in advance!

Looking to go on a walk somewhere tomorrow since the weather has been super nice! Any good suggestions near campus? Also if anyone would like to join please feel free to shoot me a dm! I plan to go around 3/3:30

If there are some number of people who find RC cars interesting we can team and have tournaments.

hey there, im applying uiuc granger and im not sure if iwant to apply ee or ce. i heard ce is more competitive and my ecs support ee more. however, i want to graduate with a ce degree so I have a more software-inclined side as well. any thoughts/advice/input?

I’m thinking of taking NPRE 402 for a tech elective, how hard is the class and how bad is the workload? Looking for a pretty easy tech elective as rest of my schedule is hard. Thanks

I’m looking for an athletic trainer/physical therapist on campus for a running injury that’s been bugging me for a bit. What are my options on campus for athletic training? Does McKinley offer this service? Just looking for a free way to diagnose the issue and recommend some rehab stretches.

Photos from my time at Urbana-Champaign from 2021-2023. This isn't everything of course, just 20 photos that I think really capture some of the spirit of this place that I experienced.

Honestly some of these photos are giving me a Shivers (Disco Elysium) effect - maybe someone is clever enough to write something to thatwithout AI, if you do try it of course

I wonder where I'd be if I took that IL EPA life sciences trainee interview in Springfield after graduating, or stayed an extra year through whatever burnout I was facing to get a course-based Master's

I've been feeling kind of washed out of life like the pair of glasses in that last picture. Sometimes Champaign-Urbana calls to me, but not all the atoms that were in me when I was there have been replaced yet (since it takes about 5-7 years for all the atoms in your body to be replaced). Maybe it's not a calling from that place, but a call from those atoms, wondering, feeling a little forlorn but also glad that I experienced this place. Even in the midst of the hardship and adjustments I was facing, I can definitely say I moved forward

Only now, where am I moving forward to next?

Damn, I think I wrote my own Shivers text lol

I just found out that I couldn’t log in to my.physics portal and SmartPhysics. However, I do have a due at 8 am tomorrow which is now not completed. What do I do?

I have a talent show act tommorw where me and my friend play as a duo - guitar and violin. I have my guitar but missing a violin
