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?

i applied in september as an out of state applicant with high stats early action (1520 sat). any idea when i might hear and whether it would be before november 1 apps?

Anyone know of any businesses in or around Main Street currently hiring for part time?

anyone have any insight on difficulty on advance cyber? Saw that the 19th is last day to add or drop. Possibly looking to jump into this class

Hi!! I'm thinking about transferring to UD for fall 2027 as a sophomore and would love to meet other girls who are transferring too! I'm hoping to find friends and possibly roommates before the semester starts. If anyone else is in the same situation, I'd love to connect!

does anyone know any good study spots on campus? i’m a transfer student tired of sitting in the lib when there’s too many people 😭
I heard Building X is Good but that gets full fast too

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

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.

Dumb question but I accidentally bought a microwave that's 1000w and it's not supposed to exceed 700w in my dorm, if I use it will I like make the power go out or is it fine?

What is the best site to find a roommate for an off campus apartment 2027-2028? TIA

Room for rent for the 2027-28 school year! Located not too far from campus, in a nice, quiet neighborhood. The house has 4 bed 1 bath, my room is the medium sized one that's smaller than the master but larger than the smallest one. Rent is $655, excluding utilities, which usually comes to about $100 depending on use. Off street parking available. House is fully furnished, and all furniture, mattresses, appliances, oven, dishwasher and more are all brand new.

The master bedroom and the smallest one is available for rent as well, but are currently open for tours so they might be signed off before long.

Lease starts June 1st 2027 and goes for 12 months.

Pls dm me if you have any questions! Thanks!

Hey uh there was a guy by Little Goat asking if this was a place that “university students go” and where university events are. He pushed his way to the front and went inside and asked if anybody knows Kaylin (Kay Lynn? Idk)

But yeah the behavior seems weird and he’s rushing around. Didn’t like it. If you are or know a Kaylin, please be alert. He’s blond, about 6 foot, wearing a blue shirt, black backpack.

Be safe!!!

I'm a photographer, and was hoping to throw up some flyers or something somewhere. Is there a place that I can put them up where people will see? And/or can I post something here?

Hi! I'm an undergrad looking for bamboo for a school project. I am willing to harvest it if it's just growing out of your backyard. I'm also open to suggestions of where to find bamboo in the New Castle County area. Thanks!!

I’m curious what some of your local business websites look like and thought it might be nice to help a few out with their web design.

If you’re a local business owner and you’re not really happy with how your website looks, drop the link below. I’ll pick a few to work on.

If there’s a specific page or section you’re unhappy with, let me know and I can start there.
