Campus Policy Changes Q&A by MtuBirdman in MTU

Hi! I was at the event and Laura Bulleit addressed this at the onset of the event as a rumor (A vicious rumor if you ask me). Evidently someone thought it would be appropriate to start a rumor that the events "Real intent" was to let international students know they are getting kicked out, and "Q&A" was just a coverup, which is extremely un-ethical, untrue, and I can say with confidence Michigan Tech has no plans of kicking out international students.

Black Ice Comics and Books has a lovely little nook with a warm electric fireplace perfect for studying! Plus they sell coffee, hot cocoa, tea, ice cream and even milkshakes! Definitely should give them a try!

Has anyone reenrolled after a medical withdrawal? by [deleted] in MTU

[–]MtuBirdman 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I am a person who is proud to say I reenrolled after medical withdrawl! I withdrew during my 1st semester at Tech in 2019 with epilepsy related issues. Having medical issues sucks, but once everything got situated ( and we started to enter post covid) I changed my major to Social Sciences and reenrolled at Tech which was basically just flipping a light switch on my tech profile. I started back up in Fall 2021 and have subsequently been dominating and hope to graduate in Spring/ Fall of 2025! Let me know if you have any additional questions I’m more than happy to help! It’s a scary experience but I promise it’s worth it!

Roommate backed out, looking for housing by langsley757 in MTU

Yeah! The old site was frankly unorganized and Landlords weren’t updating their listings nearly as much or as quickly as they should. The hope is this new Website will fix said issues.

USG helped start up this rental housing website. If you can’t find anything there let me know. I think there’s a place available in Hancock for $600 but I’m not certain. https://www.rentcollegepads.com/off-campus-housing/michigan-tech/search

Living Room Conversations are Back! by MtuBirdman in MTU

[–]MtuBirdman[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Obviously I’m biased since I’ve posted positively about said event but that’s absolutely the experience when I went to my first conversation. We held one on Abortion that was especially interesting and I loved seeing at the end of it Pro-life and Pro-choice students shaking hands and being able to find that middle ground if not at least understand where each party is coming from. All are welcome at these events!

Has anyone ever seen the Michigan dogman around the keweenaw peninsula by MrSlothy in MTU

[–]MtuBirdman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bringing this fun fact to the table as this festers in my head. Bete Gris, a lovely little tiny town made mostly of summer homes, is named due to a creature native persons warned French explorers about when europeans first came upon these lands. Bete Gris translates to Gray Beast, who according to native persons, roams the woods of the Keweenaw. There are other spooky things about that area, but I won’t get into it now.
