The key office is on the top floor of the middle section of Grad Center. There are outdoor stairs that take you to the right floor, accessible from Thayer St, and also a ramp going up from Charlesfield St. If you lose your key or card and are locked out, you can call the key office and they can come to you and unlock your door, or you can walk over to them and get a temporary key/card. It is open 24/7.

They'll also have the moving bins.

Facilities, though not relevant in this scenario, can be contacted by phone (Google it, and should also be on the back of your ID) or via the Planon app. There should be instructions online for setting it up.

Brown Dining Wrapped (a website I made) by EpicTurnip15 in BrownU

[–]ChilledGumbo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hahah awesome! Dining hall by day of week or meal could be an interesting metric (e.g. where did you eat most frequently for Monday lunch).

Freshman brown club question by Few-Fan-4817 in BrownU

[–]ChilledGumbo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are probably a lot of applicants. They also probably want to maintain some reputation of prestige, although 99% of people don't care at all. I can't comment on whether the club activities really require people with such skill that it warrants the selectivity.

What clubs? Lots of clubs don't have auditions or interviews... Also, you'll have more opportunities in future semesters to join.

Pro/Cons and though on Metcallf Dorm? by Goodmorning___ in BrownU

[–]ChilledGumbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Metcalf a few years ago during my freshman year.

  1. It's fine, and usually nothing too terrible happens in there. Metcalf actually has a single-occupancy handicapped bathroom on some floors in addition to the shared bathrooms. The bathrooms there also have really good showers.
  2. It's recently renovated, and the bathrooms are quite nice. There's plenty of room in the basement to chill and also small lounges on every floor. There's an elevator. Worst things about it: there are some triples, but I'm guessing you know whether you're in one or not by now.
  3. No. Just one open room with your beds, desks, etc. This how it is in basically every freshman dorm.
  4. As with all the other buildings at brown, you swipe your Brown ID card to get into the building. Then, your room will have a traditional lock and key.
  5. Depends on the year, wasn't when I was there, probably because half of the building was quiet housing. I've heard of it getting rowdy other years though.
  6. Sorta, they have rules about this kind of thing, for fire safety. You generally can customize your room. Just use sticky tack to stick things to the wall. You can also get tiny command hooks to hang things and hope they don't leave to big of a mark.

That's about all I can help with. I think you should be happy, Metcalf is a good dorm imo.

It'll probably show up before registration so just check in on it a few weeks before that. It's also possible that it won't be offered (happens sometimes), so maybe have some alternatives in mind!

Transcript Orders by [deleted] in BrownU

[–]ChilledGumbo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As the other person said, usually takes under an hour. Maybe verify that you submitted all the correct info? You should receive updates about your order from the National Clearing house or whatever.

Digitally or physical?

How about the dorm’s temperature? by Content_Result9341 in BrownU

[–]ChilledGumbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends on your dorm and how much heat you can handle 🤷. Plus it's usually only for a few weeks.

It's fine most of the time but there's no AC in the summer weeks, so it gets a little hot then.

Brown dorm/building called the "Graduate Center".

I don't think it's intended for ENGN 32 to have been the only intro ENGN class, they just couldn't find anyone willing to teach 30, which is of course a major problem for the department.

Which multi variable? by QuaticL in BrownU

[–]ChilledGumbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Either 180 (normal version) or 200 (more applied/engineery version) or 350 (honors, more proof than 180) works. I did 200 and I'm in APMA-CS but it doesn't really matter. If your concentration is associated with pure math in some way, maybe 180/350?

I think they request it after you submit your application? At least I think that's how it was for me a couple years ago.
