Lost my Orange Winter Jacket

9 Upvotes

Hi! My name is Zach and I lost my orange winter jacket. Most likely I left it in Miller Hall in room 138. It was after my club and I left it there by accident, and I’m worried that when someone came into class the next day they took it. Is there any chance someone has seen it? It is an orange and black Columbia jacket that contains my orange hat and black gloves. Hopefully this reaches the right people. Thank you!

Question best near-campus smoke spots

6 Upvotes

i live for a good cig but i know a lot of people are sensitive/hate the smell.

i’m on the end of the fairhaven stacks nearing BT so usually i stand in the arb or wander the service road, but i worry about the smoke wafting up into windows.

what’s the best campus-adjacent spots — preferably in south campus — in your opinion? bonus points if it’s sheltered from wind/rain since i’m usually out very late and get damn cold lmao.

Survey/Study Quick call for answers for a project

9 Upvotes

Hello wwulings! I’m working on a project for an education class right now and want to include a huge mix of experiences with students resisting harmful and abusive systems.

You can answer any or all questions:
- What was a time you stood up to injustice in an educational setting?
- How did a teacher create an inclusive classroom that made you feel included as their student?
- What was a time you noticed injustice but didn’t know how to react?

Anything would be great! This projects goal is to show youths and students knowledge of the systems around them and how they are willing to resist. Just a few sentences would be great but if you’re willing to write anything longer I will happily include it!

1000% anonymous, thank you so much!

Buy/Sell/Trade Looking for Unused WTA Benefit Code

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I was wondering if there’s anyone who isn’t using their WTA bus benefit code for winter quarter. I’d be happy to Venmo money for it.

I’m a former WWU student who takes multiple buses a day to commute to work, and since WTA doubled their fares and discontinued monthly passes, it’s become difficult to afford. I don’t have a ton of money right now but I’d be open to negotiating a fair price!

Hey y'all!

What's the consensus this year on wearing (non disruptive) costumes to class on Friday? I'm not a party-goer so usually halloween day is my time to have fun in costume, but don't want to look too out of place if people aren't dressing up on the 30th. let me know!

for context: I've got a medieval-type dress I'm wanting to wear!

Hello everyone first post here so hi!!!

I am a currently high school senior and WWU is pretty high on my list. I know every place is going to have their flaws but I’m asking for honest unfiltered opinions on WWU and their programs, housing, etc. Feel free to mention whatever you see fit, I’d love to hear it all. Just for context, I am an out of state student and would be apart of their Energy Studies and Tech undergrad bachelor. My application is already submitted! Thanks everyone!

Rant Crossing the street at night

67 Upvotes

I hope this doesn’t make me sound like a grandma or anything but I have been endlessly annoyed by people crossing the street at night without using the walk light. It’s there for a reason. If I already can’t see you that well because it’s dark and then you think you’re too cool to use the walk light that is not a good equation! I don’t care who you are!!! You are not too cool to use the walk light!!!!! Unless someone is dying or injured there is no reason urgent enough to not use the walk light!!! Please and thank you.

Question Who's your favourite WWU Professor? Why?

25 Upvotes

I need a list to put in my back pocket as a first-year. Especially Business professors and Classical Studies professors. I've only had two classes so far, and I love them both (even though I keep missing one). So far, though:

Miller Krause has been fucking great. I'm taking CLST360 with him, and I'm a little biased because I had a really long-standing interest in ancient Greece as a child and he reignited that fire in my mind like crazy. He's a phenomenal professor, and incredibly easy for me to keep up with, despite my brain injury. His assignments and quizzes are easy and the reading (there is a lot of it) is genuinely enjoyable. He's also very funny and kind and listens to me ramble. If you listen to me ramble I will like you forever.

Buy/Sell/Trade Want to escape the dorms?

14 Upvotes

Hey all, I’m relocating away from Bellingham and leaving behind my precious apartment close to campus. It’s a fifteen minute walk and three minute drive away from campus. The price is $1550 total, so split between two people, you’re looking at $775 each. It’s 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathrooms and approximately 900 sq feet. Dishwasher and garbage disposal are included. There’s washer/dryer in the building. Parking is included! One reserved spot and one open spot.

It’d be the perfect spot for two college kids to live together. I’ve been very happy here for over four years now.

This would be a lease take over. August 2027 is when the current lease is up, but there’s opportunity for renewal. $1400 security deposit needed.

Apartment available beginning of November!

Rant Hello STEM students 👋 please stop terrorizing people with your odor. Deodorant and showers are NOT optional

154 Upvotes

Bond Hall is already stuffy and hot, now imagine the consequences of having a bunch of stinky STEM students in there all at once. Just because YOU can't smell yourself doesn't mean other people can't. I know it's midterm season but please don't give up deodorant and regular showers. Yes you need to shower even if all you're doing is studying. And to those of you trying to mask it with cologne, you smell like a middle schooler. PU!
