Possibly dumb question

1 Upvotes

Hello all, at risk of embarrassing myself I must pose a question to the public.

So last weekend I went to visit my bsf at her school and I had my first frat party experience. I personally had a really great time and it got me motivated to look at my options for the coming weekend. So I'm looking around at different promos and a lot of them say "DM for low". It will usually say somewhere else that they'll drop the address the day of, so I'm assuming it's not referring to an address? Is it talking about ratios? Or perhaps something else entirely i didn't consider..

1-Minute Survey on Morning Routine Stress

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I am a high school senior working on my PLTW Engineering Design and Development (EDD) capstone project. I am also an incoming freshman at UW-Milwaukee for Mechanical Engineering!
My team is designing a physical product/hardware solution to help eliminate morning stress, oversleeping, and low energy. We desperately need 150 responses to validate our data loop, and we are currently sitting at 14.
It takes literally 60 seconds (all multiple choice). I would massively appreciate your help to get us past the finish line!

What is campus like for a minority?

1 Upvotes

I am a transfer student and I really like the appeal of Milwaukee due to coming from a small town myself. In Wisconsin, Milwaukee the biggest city and I would love the contrast from my boring hometown. However, as a minority I heard I am a little concerned about Milwaukee's reputation about redlining and segregation. I was wondering if campus reflects this or if I as a minority would be accepted there.

Pants

Does anyone have a pair of black tripp pants I can borrow? My friend is taking me to a frat and they're doing emo night. I have a top in mind but I don't have any pants that fit the theme, and I don't really have the time or money to get a pair.

East Tower Swap

5 Upvotes

Hello! I am looking to swap my West-facing single on floor 7 of Sandburg East for a South (or perhaps East) facing single in East. Because I have plants and want to make sure they have sun, I would prefer floor 7 or higher, but I am open to hearing out other possibilities.

I've been having a really difficult time getting out of bed and making it to my morning classes because my room faces West and is extremely dark in the morning. I think having some more natural sunlight in the morning would greatly help.

My room would be a good fit for a night owl who prefers a darker room in the morning, and likes a cooler room in the day. I should note that the room gets pretty warm from about 3-7:00 PM, but it's pretty cool the rest of the day.

If you're interested in switching, or if you know someone who is, please send me a DM so we can discuss details and work something out. I am pretty busy this week, but I will try to respond as soon as I can. Thank you!

Say If I don’t want to pay for parking and I live on campus and I want to go home for a weekend sometime and want to have a car to do so can you park in UPark long term or is that just for off campus students for the day? If this makes sense.

Biolife Plasma

4 Upvotes

I just started school here a month ago, and was looking at maybe donating plasma at Biolife. I was wondering what I would need to bring with me to donate as a student? I dorm here but I don't live here year round so I don't think I'd be a resident, but it did say on their website they made exceptions for students. (Also, if you feel there's better alternatives to Biolife I'm open to suggestions as I have heard mixed reviews.)

Before you ask, I did try calling them on the phone but the representative wasn't any help, so I figured SOMEONE here has to have donated before and would have some know how.

Summer at Cambridge Commons

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I think I am going to be in Milwaukee this summer for an internship. I saw that Cambridge Commons offers housing for interns and was wondering if anyone has any experiences doing that. It would be a bit far from my work, but the price doesn't look bad and it would be nice to live with a community. However, if anyone thinks that I might be better off subleasing from another student/some other sublease please let me know.

Help Locating missing children

10 Upvotes

Hello UWM Reddit users & whoever else,

My name is Mickey McGowan I have two small children 3&1 who are by default Wisconsin family law 767 my children and I have full sole custody legally etc. Their father is largely uninvolved and said ok to us moving out of state. Today around 4/5 he agreed to take them to the playground which became downer woods instead and they departed after agreeing they should be home 6/6:30 a hard 6:30 as the 3 year old is usually sleep early 7. Around 7 I reached out to learn towards 7:30 they were having dinner... Wed already eaten ALLOT but since he never wants to see them I just told myself calm down whatever.after 8 I called I reached out nothing until 9 I hear he has an apartment and hes not returning. Legally only civilly I have custody and the police can do nothing unless I take him to court. He has no proven paternity they were unable to locate him and he has never even wanted to have them more than 2 hours we haven't even hit that time frame yet and now they're gone! I do not mean to drag him in the mud but I am incredibly worried. If you've seen him or my daughters Winter (3) and Penelope (1) please let us know

We live in Shorewood not far from downer woods we frequent UWM campus on scooters allot the children are average sizes and I will attach pictures

If any location is known please share and see that they're hydrated and well.

Soon to be 2&4 I am guessing the apartment is in Milwaukee please please if you see them let me know where location wise my phone I will put in the comments thank you so much

I tried posting this in MILWAUKEE subreddit but the account is too young and was Auto moderated

On-Campus Jobs

5 Upvotes

Are there really only 15ish open on-campus jobs (as seen on Handshake)? I've been checking and applying regularly since I got access this fall, but this seems absurdly low, even for a smaller school. Is there a separate website for department-specific/desk jobs?

Thanks
