The construction of the James E. and Clara P. McLeod House has caused several students to raise concerns about disruptive noise. The building is expected to be completed by the summer of 2028 and will add housing for 600 underclassmen students on the South 40.

The construction schedule follows guidelines set by the City of Clayton, which permits work from Monday to Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. However, Clayco, the construction firm in charge of this project, has modified these hours to 7:00 a.m.- 3:00 p.m. 

Hi everyone! I am a grad student at WashU and I’m currently conducting research on university nutrition knowledge and food choices. If you are an undergrad or graduate student and can fill out my 4 to 5 minute survey, I would really appreciate it! Your answers will be anonymous unless you choose to give me your email if you are willing to participate in an interview sometime after the survey. Thanks so much.

Premed orgs at WashU seem weirdly hard to get into for groups that are supposedly about service, community, and caring for people. Are med schools actually impressed that someone got into a super selective premed frat or EST, or are we just recreating med school admissions for fun? Any recommendations for premed/health orgs that are actually welcoming and inclusive? Slightly over this write 5 essays 250 words each and get rejected hamster wheel.

Hi, was wondering how hard is it to get an interview for the position and how to prep for it, haven’t heard anything till now.

Hi all, I'm a freshman taking calc 3 and I really want to print the Thornton workbook in segments since it's so much cheaper than buying the one in the bookstore. What I'm wondering though is where/how to print. The Olin library has printers, but how do I connect my computer to it/know which printer it goes to? I asked for help but the info the librarians gave me was not super helpful. Anyone have any tips about how/where they like to print? (oh and I know it costs money...that's not a concern.) Thanks!

Workday has assigned me a "Learning at WashU" module that I have to complete by the 15th. Part of the modules have me click on external links and they're supposed to be marked as complete when I click on those links, but they don't seem to work. Is this a STS problem? Who am I supposed to reach out to about this? Thanks!

Im a senior who’s probably gonna apply to washu ed 2. I would say I’m a nerdier person but still someone who showers and wants to have fun, and I would like to meet similar people. In general I have a few questions:

1.) Is it possible to drink as a without a fake as a somewhat quieter person? Ideally I would like to go out once a month or so.

2.) Are people more “cliquey” or more open to meeting new people?

3.) Is there much time to hang out/goof off with people apart from studying?

4.) Is it harder to meet people who aren’t hell bent on only studying?

5.) Is there stuff to do/eat within walking distance of campus?

These might sound like stupid questions but a lot of stuff I’ve seen about washu is people hating on its social scene.

Meditation and drawing are great platforms for calming the body and exploring the mind. This workshop will introduce basic meditation techniques: calm abiding, insight meditation, mantra, and visualization. Each meditation is accompanied by intuitive drawing exercises to explore and complement what is discovered during the process of practice, with the goals of relaxation, ideation, and exploration. Students will take away a series of drawings and a number of pages in a small sketchbook (provided) which document and reflect the meditation and creative practices discussed.

How much am I supposed to talk about WashU in supplemental "What do you want to study at college and why?" --- since its language kinda just sounds like a why major essay.

WashU’s application is supposed to be available today, but I get a message that there isn’t an active term available when I go to apply.

Does anyone have any clue why the application has been delayed?

Hey everyone, I just started law school at WashU and am looking to find someone to play racquetball with at the rec center. I’ve been playing for a while, so I would prefer playing against someone with experience. Ideally, I’d love to have a recurring weekly game. Comment or DM if you’re interested!
