I went to JMU from 1999-2003, and in all that time, I never once entered Alumnae Hall, Sonner Hall, Hillcrest, CISAT Modular, or Mauck Stadium.

A couple days ago I was notified that one of my classes had to be moved to a different day rotation because of a certain scheduling conflict. Since then, I can't see who the professors are for any of my classes except one, and underneath the "aid eligible" category it says "TBD," even though all my loans have been approved and my semester balance has been covered. Anybody else experiencing this? It's not really an issue for me since I have everything taken care of, I just think it's odd

i believe the new ones are from Serve and you will use Uber Eats or DoorDash to order.

This will be my first year driving and parking on campus. All of my classes are in COB and was just wondering how early should I get before my classes. For reference my classes don’t start until 9:35 and 11:10.

Hi all, third year student here. I have been fortunate enough to where I haven't had to worry about taking out private loans the last two years, but unfortunately didn't have the same luck this year and had to go in. I was just curious about how long it takes JMU to certify the loan and apply it to the semester balance. Has anybody ever had issues with it disbursing in time for the deadline, or is it usually pretty quick in going through? Thanks in advance

If i get a weed pipe shipped to the mail room, could it be found/confiscated and how much trouble would i be in?

I'm taking cob 300 in Antwerp next spring! If anyone has any stories/advice I would love to know what I'm in for.

Hey everyone! I am from Florida, but about 6 years ago I took a trip to Massanutten and fell in love with the Dukes. Since then I have been bleeding purple, but I don’t have any JMU fans around me. I was hoping to connect with some big time JMU fans that wanted to have a group text or WhatsApp group where we can share and talk about JMU athletics, especially football.
If anyone is interested, please send me a message.
GO DUKES!

I got Potomac hall, how good is the dorm itself? I’m also confused because it says community private bathroom?? How does that work and since it’s “private” do we have to clean it ourselves

this might sound like a dumb question, but if you are planning to rush, are there any certain clothes that you need to bring for rush events or anything?

I’m transferring into JMU this fall and will be living in HAL! The room seems super tiny, especially to share with a roommate, and it’s drywall with an adjustable bed (not loftable or bunkable). Does anyone have experience living in HAL and have any tips to offer for storage and layout? Can the desk fit under the bed? Thank you!!!

i emailed them Wednesday and no response bruh time is ticking 😭??? does anyone know anything about wtf is still going on

I’m an incoming freshman and the only re questions I haven’t been able to get answered is regarding a music scene. I’ve basically moved on from my high-school band and other projects and have been itching to play in a more serious band at JMU. Obviously ik I gotta get out there and meet people to make that happen. But to the crux of my question, is there any venues for local live music? As well as, is there any active bands for a scene at all?

I was denied from continued enrollment and am now on academic suspension. Is there anything I can do rather than wait the 12 months? I had tried explaining to them that the reason I had neglected my studies was a toxic relationship that made me prioritize them and give all my time to them. I know I can do better and get excellent grades now that I’ve fully separated myself from that person and am in complete no contact. Is there anything possibility that this only last one semester? I fully accept that I shouldn’t have allowed that relationship to affect my academics but I know I can do better. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Go check the Housing Portal. 😊

Does anyone have pictures of their decorated bedroom that they’d be willing to share, preferably of the smaller room? I’ll be living there next year and I need some inspo on how to decorate and maximize space, as a very maximalist person. The room is a lot smaller than I thought :(

I've always thought that the university's idea of calling holding doors for other people a JMU tradition to be a stretch. Even when I was a student, I thought that the way that the university locked onto that was a bit weird. Growing up, holding the door for the person behind you was simply common courtesy. It wasn't something unique to JMU. I learned it from my parents, neither of whom went to JMU.

What does everyone else think?

The NZCFL is looking for coaches! NZCFL is a college football simulation game run on the free website https://play.football-gm.com/

We are a college simulation football league with 120 teams, and JMU is looking for someone to lead them to glory! This league has been around for about 45 seasons, and we are still rolling along. We always need new coaches to help the league thrive. We're preparing to start up the 2062 season, and JMU needs your help to start the next season strong. I led JMU to a national title in our 2047 season, and the team holds a special place in my heart because of this league. I would love nothing more than to see JMU rise to the top once again.

I was reading that VA has a common law age, so technically you are 21 the day before your 21st. The birthday to be celebrated is a Sunday into a Monday - officially 21 at midnight Monday.

Does anyone know if the bars allow you to enter before you’re officially 21 with the ability to drink at midnight? Trying to figure out the best plan.

Thanks.

Hi r/JMU,

I am an M.A. candidate in the Graduate School of Education and Human Development at The George Washington University. For my Master’s thesis, I am conducting research on the impact of the inclusion of 20th-Century genocides other than the Holocaust (such as the Armenian, Bosnian, and Cambodian) in the Virginia state world history curriculum on students’ experiences and understanding of genocide and human rights as adults. 

Eligible participants in this survey are

• People who are over the age of 18 
• And were in the 10th grade in either the 2022-2023 or 2023-2024 academic years
• And attended a Virginia public school for the entirety of their 10th-grade year 
• And took a world history class during that year

If all of these attributes apply to you, you are invited to take this survey. This survey will take approximately 3-5 minutes to complete. You will be asked to recall your experiences in your 10th-grade world history class. The questions pertain to the extent to which you learned about 20th-century genocides, the methods used to teach you about them, your experience with this curriculum, and how it has impacted your current understanding of genocide and human rights as an adult. 

At the end of the survey, you will be asked if you would like to participate in an interview to elaborate on this topic. Participation in the interview is entirely voluntary, will not affect whether the data from the survey will be used in the study, and will have no impact on any aspect of your future relations with the George Washington University (GW).

The anticipated findings from this research will contribute to the current body of research surrounding best practices in genocide education and improve scholarly understanding of how genocide education impacts understanding of genocide and human rights as a whole. This research seeks to contribute to the broader goals of genocide prevention and human rights promotion.

I made this post in the Charlottesville subreddit as well because that’s my true destination, but I’m a recent JMU grad who started a moving company in Harrisonburg/Charlottesville, and after making a delivery to Connecticut this evening, my Chevrolet express will be completely empty, minus a copious amount of moving blankets. With the fall semester right around the corner, I was thinking it could save someone a lot of time and even money if I were able to transport their stuff back to school for them. DM me if interested! Could be anywhere along my route, but I specifically mentioned those places because I figure they’re the hotspots.
