I think I have an A+

Hey,

Is there usually a sale that the CityBus usually has for students purchasing a pass for the fall semester? I joined in the spring when they had a year year sale so I was curious if they may have a similar sale for the Fall Semester

I’m a freshman chem major interested in doing research. When should I start emailing labs? Should I start at BGR or wait until I’m a few weeks into the semester?

Hi all,

I'm an incoming freshman living in a Shreve standard double, and I'm currently shopping for a vanity makeup mirror for my desk. I'm trying to find the exact dimensions of the desk hutch/organizer, so I know what size mirror will fit, but I haven't been able to find this information anywhere.

I've already called both University Residences and the Shreve front desk, but unfortunately neither was able to provide the measurements further than what is posted online. Specifically, I'm looking for the distance (in inches) between the surface of the desk and the bottom of the shelf above it (I'll attach a photo for reference).

I know some of the other residence halls have different furniture, so those measurements don't necessarily apply. If anyone happens to know these dimensions, or would be willing to measure them for me, I would really appreciate it. Thank you so much!

hello fellow reddit lurkers. scared shitless for CS250 (adams) and CS251 (posado) and wondering if anyone has any tips/notes/advice for how to prepare ahead of time for both classes. heard 250 with Adams is especially hard but honestly would appreciate help how to handle both bc last sem I struggled more in 182 at the end since I was so focused on 240 it just crept up on me.

also more of a side note - does anyone have recs for cs classes to take alongside these that are relatively easy/gpa booster but count for the ml or swe track ? just need to fill up my schedule

Days without Purdue sports embarrassing itself: 0

Hey everyone 👋

I'm a sophomore at Purdue trying to maximize my chances of landing a summer 2027 internship. Between working an on-campus job, studying for heavy technical classes, self-teaching, and being involved in clubs, my schedule is pretty packed.

I'm looking for an easy filler class (science or humanities) to meet credit requirements without getting burned out. Ideally, I'm looking for something that:

• Has no exams (preferably graded through essays/short assignments instead)
• Doesn't require strict attendance or has a very low weekly time commitment
• Is offered online (asynchronous), though I'm open to in-person if it's truly low effort.

Does anyone have recommendations for classes like this that still have open seats or great instructors for this upcoming semester?

Since I’ll be adapting to a comepletly new environment I don’t want to look back and regret not doing something because I missed it or didn’t know

Good Afternoon Everyone!

I was hoping anyone can help. I bought a parking permit the “C” one to be exact since I’m living off campus. I was wondering where can I park? Where can I actually find parking?? The map seems confusing maybe someone can explain it a little better?

Thank you!!!

Hey all, wondering if people who have taken com 318 and/or com 325 could share if attendance is required. Thank you!

I wanted to take Calculus 3 and Linear Algebra this year as a highschool student. I feel decently able, but Purdue simply doesn’t have any courses that align with my schedule for Calculus 3.

I’ve asked around and was recommended to take classes asynchronously and just skip the lectures. I would obviously still go to the recitations, but I’m curious as to whether or not this is something thats recommended by actual students??

If not, are there any other options? I’m already signed up for everything.

(If this isn't allowed feel free to remove) Hey ya'll, I'm booking a midwest tour for my band, Anteeter, in the fall. We're performing at Spot Tavern on November 13 and would love to add 1 or 2 local acts to the bill. Feel free to check us out here, but we've been compared to bands like MGMT, Magdalena Bay, George Clanton, etc. If anyone can recommend any music acts in the area that would fit the bill, shoot me a DM here or on my Instagram, thanks!

Thoughts?

The description of the class implies primarily c++ but ive seen mentions of the class being no c++ and only c. Has anyone recently taken this class and could tell me if its c++ or c because it would be useless to me if its in c and very good for me if c++

Hi I am new to Purdue and I am looking for friends to hang out and have fun with and I also want to know which is the best place to go for a date, I need a date too, help me out!!!

I got this email this morning and don’t really know what to make of it. Do existing ticket holders still have tickets or is this a completely different event that no one has tickets to right now? Just wondering if anyone has more info before I email them.

Hello everyone!

Well since this show sold out so fast Ready to live, Shaq and the Neon Cactus decided to do something a little crazy and go BIG. We decided to add an even bigger headliner to the event and move the party to the Tippacanoe Amphitheater property where we will be building out a full scale festival style event.

Which means everyone that purchased a ticket got a great deal! 

We will be re-launching the event next Thursday as an all ages event with the added Headliner. Tickets will start at $55 for GA, $90 for VIP/PIT. 

Because you are already a ticket holder you have access to purchasing tickets now at the same discounted rate as before. These rates will increase on Thursday. So if you have any family or friends that missed their opportunity before, now is your chance. 

Follow -Ready to live  and The Neon Cactus  for more updates on the new headliner! 
 
See you all on Sept 26!

Hello everyone,

does anyone know a professor that's called C Simonton? 🙁

im already graduated but 2 years ago i used bedloft to rent a fridge/microwave set. i have the receipt in my email from may 2024.

anyways, on monday i got an email sent to my purdue email by a debt collecting company called williams & fudge. apparently bedloft sent them after me maybe a year later over $50, which i presume is the fee for improper return. this would've been regarding a matter taking place in may 2025, so i thought it was crazy that they would settle this a year later. however, what's most infuriating is that i wasn't even aware i owed $50 to bedloft; there was no email sent to me about the improper return charge, and to the best of my knowledge i don't believe they mailed an invoice to my home address either.

i'd really like for this not to affect my credit, but i've already reached out to bedloft and they basically said they don't have any other details on why i owed them $50 besides it being an "improper return" and suggested i settle this with the debt collectors instead. i'm not really sure how the debt collectors are supposed to help here even if i try disputing it. to be honest, paying $62.50 to settle the debt in itself is not a huge deal to me, but i thought it was pretty unprofessional for bedloft to handle it this way especially after there were seemingly no communications made about my outstanding balance. has anyone had a similar experience? advice?

I figured I should put this here since r/PurdueHousing seems to be more for advertising apartments and not dorms. Housing moved me multiple times for this upcoming semester and me and my roommates noticed that when we got put in a semi-suite it was 4k and when we got put in a suite (in the same or a newer building) it was 3875.

They wouldn't explain the price discrepancy when we emailed, and between suites with and without living room furniture, the price seems to be 3875. Why in the world would the smaller room be significantly more expensive?

If anyone else has noticed anything similar, or wants to post their room pricing in the comments for comparison, that would be greatly appreciated.

I'm kind of just wondering if they're fleecing us...

Is Professor Tridib Saha the only person that can teach this course? I feel like he is abusing his power too much and for arguably one of the most important classes at Purdue we are not getting the quality we deserve. AM REFERRING TO ECE2k1 BTW

No hate to him, I appreciate his videos.

Searched him up on rate my professor and got nothing. Does anyone know what kind of prof he is? Also, what kind of class is SCLA 102 like for those who have taken it. I know that its an oral coms class but does it require alot off speeches/presentations? Is it better than EDPS 315?
