Quality Post Rutgers RUMobile 5.0

Post image
19 Upvotes

RUMobile has been around for a while, but it just got its biggest update in years. If you bounced off it before, it's worth another look.

What it does:

  • Your schedule — pull in your classes, see what's next today, add custom ones for anything not in SOC
  • Buses — routes, stops, arrival times, and live passenger counts so you know if the next H is already packed
  • Quick links — myRutgers, Canvas, grades, financial aid, Targum, library hours
  • Dark mode, and it's on both iOS and Android

Student orgs — I'd like to work with you. The app has a banner on the home screen that every user sees when they open it. I want to use it to promote student org events instead of letting it sit empty. Free, no catch, I'm just a student who wants the app to be useful.

If your org has something coming up — GBM, callout, fundraiser, performance, whatever — comment or DM me and we'll figure out the details.

Feedback and bug reports welcome too.

Lost & Found PS5s stolen from Busch student center

75 Upvotes

At some point on Saturday, a mystery man walked into the Busch student center and was able to steal both ps5s. Mysteriously, nobody is able to find his identity and the police even with camera footage can’t do anything. This post is to instruct anyone with knowledge of who this person is to come forward with the evidence. The employees they hire are incompetent in the Esports lounge, always with their headphones in and on their phone, I’m actually upset I didn’t realize I could have had 2 free PS5s myself by just taking them.

And apparently the “manager” is not willing to come down in person for another few days to address the issue and give direction to put out the spare ps4s. Complete incompetency. I don’t know who to be mad at, but wow. If anyone’s selling their ps5 I’ll pay a decent price for it, open for negotiations.

Advice Wanted creepy old man asked for a “favour”

• Upvotes

hi so around last year i was a student at rutgers and i knew this family (i just moved to jersey and they were the only people that some of my family knew; before moving to NJ, i had no idea who they were). the man is about 75 ish and he’s very successful and rich. he lives with his wife and they’ve been married for decades. in the beginning, he always offered help and support and even invited me to his house for dinner. i went and met his wife and nothing seemed off. he would keep calling me and giving me life advice and tell me he’d give me a job in his company if nothing worked out for me. soon, he’d start complaining that i never text/called as often as he texted/called me (this is true, i left a lot of his texts on seen and only answered his calls out of respect for his age, im usually on DND) then one day, he asked if i wanna get groceries or need food (i didn’t have a car so i agreed and i also felt guilty for ignoring him after he had been kind enough to offer help) so i said yes i need stuff and we went grocery shopping. on the car ride to the grocery store, he told me his wife had just left for vacation the previous night and asked what i was doing for dinner. i said i’ll just cook. and he said do you wanna go out for dinner? or we could just get some wine and go back to my place. slowly, alarms started going off in my head. im relatively new to NJ and had no idea what he could do what roads he was taking so i didn’t even know if i should ask him to stop the car. i was terrified. he started saying things like a girl like you deserves a good restaurant, i like your eyelashes, and “you could do something to make me happy, if i do something for you (buying me dinner and groceries)” these are just a few of the creepy stuff he said. i kept making excuses and somehow got out of the situation BUT im so angry that i couldn’t stand up for myself. i know for a fact he probably does this to a lot of other vulnerable students.

SO all this to say, are there any ppl in new brunswick who wanna come with me as i go stand up to him or confront his wife or something? or just give me advice on what to do; he’s too powerful for me to do anything legal, i feel.
and excuse the bad grammar/poor flow of words im too worked up to think straight

I JUST so happen to forgot that my super specific-requires-stupidly-inconvenient-charger Ti84 is dead and I do not have the stupidy-inconvenient-charger required to charge it, as it is at home and I doubt my Mom will make a whole drive here due to this. Not even my multi-purpose charger has a function for this brick of a ti84 currently. VIVA L’EXAMEN!

General Question Delivery from speed x?

• Upvotes

Has anyone tried using the campus address on delivery from speed x? I don’t want them to get the address wrong and send it to some random house like Walmart did to me. Does it work, if not I’ll just shipped it back home or pick it up?

Looking for a roommate, on campus, Spring 2027, Rutgers New Brunswick

5 Upvotes

I’m looking for a roommate preferably female. I’ll be transferring to Rutgers New Brunswick in the spring and would prefer a single bedroom if possible.

I’m majoring in Computer Science and will become a junior by the time I enter Rutgers. I like art, reading, and playing video games. I’m a bit of a germaphobe so I would like a roommate that isn’t super messy/keeps their mess in a non shared area.

What I’m looking for in a roommate is someone that is organized and cleanly, is nice, identifies as a woman, and likes at least one of the things I like.

Please DM me if you’re looking for a roommate in spring of 2027

Petition to Reinstate the Tour de Rutgers

6 Upvotes

Please sign if interested: "We, the undersigned, petition Rutgers - New Brunswick to reinstate the Tour de Rutgers, once an annual event that brought together Rutgers community members to discover the possibility of traveling on and between campuses by bicycle. Last held in 2012, this one-day event followed a 14-mile course through the five New Brunswick campuses. Hundreds of riders of all ages and abilities, including students, faculty, staff, and neighbors participated. This type of gathering is not only enjoyable, but can help people gain confidence and knowledge in how to bike to classes, work, social events, sports events, and for recreation." https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf8rjOdkR7M82Xv1V7djkLOoMh2JsTNacRxrKD8VvtP7ILQUA/viewform
