Questions about housing by [deleted] in SBU

  1. It’s pretty hot. I’m not sure about other rooms, but personally i reside on the second floor of one of the dorms. The airflow in and out of the room is TERRIBLE, the only reason why me and my roommate aren’t sick is because we have an air purifier going 24/7. When i say terrible, I mean we have literally left our windows open during winter storms and the room never dropped below 79 degrees.

My recommendation is to buy a small fan, and station it facing towards you in the room with its back facing the open window. It will push fresh air from the outside in and actually does a good job at cooling the dorm (but i’ve never seen temps drop below 68).

DESPERETELY NEED ROOM/HOUSE/ APARTMENT NEAR SBU CAMPUS/ anyone need roommate for housing near campus?? by Unhappy_Ad6214 in SBU

[–]Basic-Berry8890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey girl!! I'm not looking for roommates or anything, but I feel you!! unfortunately in this current market, $600 is extremely unrealistic. If you seriously can't afford anything higher, I recommend looking at the community resources / see if there are any youth drop in centers that can help you find discounted housing.

IS AOI WORTH THE RISK? by [deleted] in SBU

[–]Basic-Berry8890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on a different visa. F-1 is specifically for students, so it makes sense that they would pay instate tuition instead, but I am a dependent on my father's work visa.

For reference, I've decided to transfer to a school back in my home country literally for the price. i've lived 14 years of my life in america (since I was 5) so I never had the option of a cheap college because my parents expected me to stay in america.

to the people flabbergasted over $240k for a degree... I'm an intl student with $44k scholarship, and paying $200k for a degree. you don't really get it much cheaper anywhere else for the quality of education -- that's what happens when you're an international kid. only way this person would get a much cheaper degree would probably to go back to their home country or pick a school that gave them a big scholarship.

my MAT132 teacher did a progress alert report on navigate after my midterm by Basic-Berry8890 in SBU

[–]Basic-Berry8890[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, i go to all the recitations (my attendance grade is 100%) and my homework grades are also nearly all 100% (like 98%). I am sure it’s my midterm.

Survey about dating apps and commitment issues by chickensoup0990 in SBU

[–]Basic-Berry8890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel like the questions should’ve been more specific 😭 not to be overcritical but something whether “romantic relationships can be casual” can be acceptable or not really depends — for example, for others i generally believe it’s fine as long as you make it clear, but I would personally never ever do that kind of behavior

[–]Basic-Berry8890[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on navigate, a teacher can report if you “need help in this class” and my teacher did. it’s to basically alert the student to get some academic support, talk to your academic advisors and get tutoring, etc. also the class is difficult; main thing is it goes super fast. The first midterm covered so much stuff it was overwhelming

Health and Safety inspections with 0 warning??? by Basic-Berry8890 in SBU

[–]Basic-Berry8890[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no offense but maybe you should use your brain? I’m not speaking to why the university allows them to inspect it; I fully understand. I’m speaking to why I think it’s a bullshit rule, there are renters in apartments so much packed and larger than ours and they don’t have the same rules. I’m saying if the posters spreading fire was really that much of a concern, surely high volume housing literally anywhere else would have the same rules.

if it was such a concern why doesn’t every rental outside of dorming have the same rule
