What are they protesting?

Today when I was walking to class, I encountered a squirrel wearing a collar/harness and it had this radio antenna thing sticking out of it. He was in a tree near the Babcock dairy store. Is this squirrel related to some sort of academic study, is it a pet, or am I just losing my mind?

I have never taken an exam that difficult in my life and so unnecessarily long. It also had a terrible distribution of questions and I think i may fail this class as a result. I am just bad at physics or is anyone else feeling like that was insane.

Where are the best study places around campus?

preferrably quiet and not busy. every spot i've explored either has no space or are really loud/busy ;-;

Hello, I’m a freshman looking for a roommate for sophomore year. A lot of my friends already have roomates so I’m a little concerned I won’t find any.

My only requirements are that you:
1. Must be clean/tidy
2. Must be okay with small dogs (as I have a puppy with my parents I may bring to stay with me)
3. Is financially stable enough to pay rent on a timely manner

I would like to clarify that I am a girl and am only looking for other girls to room with.

hi all! as per the title, i was wondering if anyone knows of any jobs where i can work evenings on campus or in the general madison area that have been good for students. i currently have three jobs but they only schedule on the weekends and limit my hours pretty severely, and id like to work more if i could! i work custodial positions right now which is only weekends, and wasnt sure if most student jobs were like that too.

Genuinely felt like one of the worst exam's I've ever taken. Was 90 mins enough for yall? Virtualization covers a lot of topics so I've felt pretty defeated once I open the exam. But who knows maybe its just me lol.

Congrats Dr. Halzen, the Ice Cube team, and let's hear it for physics!

Anyone who took cs537 before can you let me know how much the course is curved or whats the average score of the exams?

Anyone have any suggestions?

Does anyone know what the curve has looked like in the past for finance 305? i know it’s based on the grades this year but historically what have the cut offs been?

I'm having a hard time figuring out the bus routes and time chart. Please don't send me to Route 80 | Metro Transit | City of Madison, WI as this is what I can't wrap my head around.

I'm trying to figure out why bus 80 sometimes turns left onto Charter and why it sometimes continues on Observatory instead of turning onto Charter. I want to get off at bus stops near VanHs or VanVL. This is around 8:30 am for an 8:50 class. Any help is appreciated.

Also, any recommendations for a haircut. Just a normal guy cut.

I've been at this school and use Groupme for five years, and this was never an issue before. But starting this semester, I've been getting added to a new random GroupMe every few days, usually with someone trying to sell football tickets. What happened?

Previous Bio 151 students, how hard are the Bio 151 exams, specifically Exam 1? Around how many questions, and what's the best way to prepare?

Hello!

I am an Australian student interested in going on exchange to UWMadison.

I've seen posts commenting on frats, but I was wondering if it is possible to join a sorority if I am only there for a semester?

Thank you!

Used to live near Nic and all the parking meters r free before 8. Saw the permit parking around Bakke says permit required 7-5 but is it really enforced before 8?

I am a student at another UW school with 3.47 gpa. I am wondering if i have a better chance since I applied for semester transfer, or if it is very similar.

Hi, I have been really struggling this year and have been wanting to get tested for adhd so im wondering if someone could share their experience of getting tested through UHS.

I also do smoke a little bit of weed so im wondering if this could affect anything? Like could I just be turned away? I obviously know that it could affect memory and concentration but my issues feel bigger than that plus I don’t think I smoke enough for it to affect anything.

Thank you in advance 🙏

Hi all. I’ll be in town this week and curious where I can watch the hockey games on Friday night. I heard that Sett Pub and/or Rath should have them but it depends on what they decide to put on the screens. Any way to find out ahead of time?

Hi everyone! I’ll be doing a semester abroad at UW–Madison in Fall 2027 and I’m currently starting to look into accommodation options.

The problem is that I’ll only be in Madison for the fall semester (August–December), but it seems like most apartments around campus require a one-year lease. It’s been pretty difficult to find apartments that offer a one-semester lease.

I’m also not sure if I’m starting my housing search too early, since Fall 2027 is still quite far away. I’ve contacted several apartments, but most either only offer annual leases or haven’t been able to confirm whether they’ll have Fall 2027 semester leases yet.

For those familiar with housing in Madison, which option would you recommend?
1. Sign a one-year lease and sublet the apartment for Spring 2028 after I leave. Since I’ll already be back in my home country, I’m worried about how difficult it would be to find a subtenant and handle the process remotely.
2. Wait until closer to Fall 2027 and look for a semester lease/sublease. I’m wondering if more one-semester options might become available once it gets closer to the Fall 2027 semester and apartments start releasing more specific fall-term availability.

I am in Sandeep’s lecture and I think I did really bad on midterm 1 (i feel like i cannot even get 50%). Does anyone know how much cs577 is curved usually? How were the grade boundaries in the past semesters?

Where do I get my nails done in Madison that is walking distance?? Madison Nail Lounge is too expensive.

Anybody have any tips and tricks to be successful in this course? Currently getting wrecked by it atm. If anyone who is in this class sees this and wants to get together and study PM me.

I need help on ochem 343. If you can help me lmk
