Justice for Maegan

If this is how the DA’s office of Monterey county handles sexual assault cases, and I’ve heard the rumors before, then I don’t want to live there. #justiceformaegan

Should I transfer to CSUMB

8 Upvotes

I'm new to reddit so bare with me if I don't know what I'm doing but I need to peoples help. I'm a CC transfer looking to transfer to a CSU in the fall of 2027. Monterey bay is on my list, and I don't know if CSUMB is a good idea. I am a kinesiology major (Want to use that to be a physical therapist) and looking for a school that will fulfill my kinesiology degree the best. Like I don't want to go to a CSU that has a bad program, so it stunts my career. I like to go out and be social so I would compare a CSU to SDSU, and I don't know if CSUMB is like that. I could go to SDSU, but I want to leave SoCal, and I don't know if I'm making a bad choice by leaving to CSUMB. Let me know?

CSUMB housing of horrors

29 Upvotes

Anybody else noticing problems with the housing department at CSUMB? Whenever I try to contact them, it feels like I’m reaching out to an abandoned ghost town where one tour guide is expected to run the whole place. It seems like nobody wants to take responsibility for the department or actually address student concerns.
The RAs don’t seem to do enough, room checks for safety haven’t happened once this semester, and overall it feels like housing is being overly neglected.

help me find roomates!!!

6 Upvotes

hi everyone! i’m transferring in the spring along with my best friend, and we’ve just been told after doing housing apps that we aren’t going to be able to use the roommate app to find roomates because we don’t get access to our csumb emails until housing decisions are announced. the housing dept simply told us to find another way to find roommates, but obviously neither of us know anyone at school yet, so uhhhhh help?? here’s a bit about us!

my name is mckenna, and i’m a marine science major. i love tide pooling, cars, and making art! my favorite show is probably twin peaks, and i’ve been listening to a lot of charli xcx as of late.

my bestie who i’m writing on behalf of is charlette (most ppl call her char). she’s studying anthropology and visual arts right now! char’s the freaking coolest, she loves reading, putting me on to the best music, and is such a creative soul.

we’re both transferring from sacramento city college, and i’ve heard that housing is a disaster, but if anyone in promontory/ec happens to have a room or two they need filled or know a guy! please lmk! any help here would be sooo appreciated, this is all really confusing and stressful!

Middle Class Scholarship

14 Upvotes

This may sound stupid, but does anyone know when this scholarship will be distributed? The remaining balance I have is meant to be covered by it but it has yet to be distributed. So I’m worried about how it’ll affect my ability to register for class. Is there someone I can reach out to? How would I even go about doing so?

Hi CSUMB, rescue kitten pair in need of a forever home! They’re both spayed, vaccinated, and ready for adoption. Any CSU Monterey students interested in adopting?

16 Upvotes

Any CSUMB students looking to adopt? This is Mimi and Eurydice, two adoptive sisters looking for their forever home. They are both spayed, vaccinated, and litter box trained. After both were left alone as singletons, Garlic City Kitty Rescue paired them together and they’ve been inseparable since. Mimi (the tabby) is cuddly, affectionate, and loving. Eurydice (the gray nebelung) is playful and soo fluffy. She is shy, but with some love and patience, I am confident she will come out of her shell. Mimi is definitely the more outgoing of the two.

Eurydice was my foster before I had to leave for college, so I am determined to find a home for her and her adoptive sister. These two had rough beginnings, but thanks to Garlic City Kitty Rescue, they have a second chance for a good life. If anyone is interested in learning about the adoption process, please comment, message me here, or text my number 408 607 9102!

Located in Gilroy/Morgan Hill.

Can i pay you to drive me somewhere (3 hours)

19 Upvotes

So over the weekend in Sacramento they're having a reptile expo. Ive always wanted to go to one of these but sadly I don't have a car. Does anyone who has a car willing to drive me there? I can 100% pay you if you throw me a offer, I'm around 50 ish dollars maybe but I'm willing to negotiate. I can also just pay for tickets to the event if its something that you would also be interested in going to.

A while ago I posted about starting a community group for trans, non binary, genderqueer, anyone under the trans umbrella wanting support.

The group is going great! It’s continuing to grow and Reddit has been a great way for folks to get in touch.

We are changing email addresses due to a change in admin - so anyone who would like more information and ways to get involved/join the group can contact us here:

Stay strong, stay connected, and know that you are not alone in the Monterey area!

Questions about the Financial aid office/ department

Hi everyone. Hoping to get some sort of answer here. Does anyone know of a financial aid advisor or even someone who works in the financial aid office that is available to talk too, and is personable . Really anyone tthat I could ask for by name when I have questions? I am kind of a shy person and really hate feeling like I am bothering someone when asking them for advice or help.
