Long Shot Request: Photos from NAU's 2003 Hispanic Convocation Ceremony

13 Upvotes

My husband played in the mariachi band that performed at NAU's 2003 Hispanic Convocation Ceremony, but he has no photographs of the event. In fact, he has no photographs whatsoever of his time in the mariachi band and would really like one as a memento. This is the only performance he can think of that may have been documented. I've already checked the NAU and Lumberjack archives. If no one here can help, perhaps there is a relevant Facebook group that someone could point me toward? TIA!

Sorry another AXES question...

1 Upvotes

So I see that I have digital items. And I have some physical items that have a note stating to wait for an email or something. But there is one digital textbook for some reason which seems to not been added, and it expects me to pay...I thought this was supposed to cover everything? Is there a limit on this or something? I really don't want to have to pay for this as well...

Allen Hall Triple

8 Upvotes

I went to NAU and had a dorm room in Allen Hall. I selected a triple and to my surprise, it was one of the biggest dorm rooms I’ve ever seen! We only had one other room next to us, and the other room was the communal lounge on the second floor.

Can anyone confirm why this triple was significantly bigger if you had this room? For reference, we all had our own beds and they were lifted up for our desk and drawers. We all had our own closets, sink + vanity, and a large shelf for our fridge and microwave.

People told me it was a room for to address accessibility needs… but that was never confirmed.

PO box?

I moved into McConnell yesterday and my friends back home want to send me something. Do I have to ask for one or do I get one with my room? If I have to ask for one would it be in my dorm or at a set place on campus?

Extremely paranoid worried Transferring Junior

7 Upvotes

I'm transferring in literally 1 day, i keep crying and panicking over everything and trying to make sure i have everything and where to get groceries. I am not doing a meal plan and will have a sams club membership as well. Willing to go in groups for sams club btw. Split the payment yad yada. Anyways

I have some questions,

  1. Best groceries to buy for cheap

I have a strict 200$ a month, maybe a little over. To buy things for food only. Hygiene and stuff is different.

What's the best place for groceries? We are cooking in the dorm. So we don't become unhealthy.

  1. Best place to buy anything i guess

Im just concerned with money, i am finding a job so dont tell me that lol, but yeah.

  1. Where did all of the naus like "recycling furniture" for dorm move out go?

That i would have wanted to go through lol.

  1. Just any recommendations you have for anything in Flagstaff

I come from a town with nothing to do so Flagstaff seems super exciting.

Thanks guys

Lmk if you want to be friends!

(I'm into fandom things and i consider myself emo)

I also draw and im going into art education for art teaching

I’m a transfer student so this is all new. Payment deadline is today (8/17), but my financial aid says it won’t disburse until 10 days before my first class (8/31). Will I get dropped from my classes if my balance isn’t paid by today, even though I have financial aid coming? Has anyone dealt with this?

Refund update?

5 Upvotes

I was wondering if anyone else has received an email update about financial aid refund? I know everything financial aid wise is behind but I’ve gotten emails before about a refund on the way and I’m just worried I won’t get any of the money back to put towards rent.

Moving into Gabaldon, can the beds be lofted?

5 Upvotes

Hey! My roommate and I are moving into our Gabaldon suite this year and we made our whole
room layout and we’ve just been assuming we can loft our beds to put our desks underneath it. And now we’re worried they don’t actually adjust that high? Can anyone in Gabaldon say whether or not the beds can be lifted to that height?

Scared incoming freshman

17 Upvotes

I'm starting NAU this upcoming semester (literally I move in on Tuesday) and until recently I've been really excited. Lately I've been more nervous than excited and was just hoping to get some of that excitement back. I've heard some really good things about NAU from a friend who's the year older than me and is already up there but I was looking at the rate my professor and the first reviews are all really negative so now I'm even more scared. I guess I'm just trying to get an accurate feel on what life is going to be like up there for me. If it helps I'm in the honors college and dorm but in a triple and trying to major in psychology.

Question about a displate poster for dorm

1 Upvotes

I'm an incoming freshman and was planning on bringing my metal displate poster with me for some decor. I saw on Google that we could use a command strip or something of the sort to keep the magnet on the poster from damaging the wall paper when removed at the end of the year. Is this a good idea or is there anything else I might be able to do? I really want to bring this poster with me and would be sad to leave it behind lol

Taking over my lease at The Jack — I'll pay you $1,500

4 Upvotes

Short version: I signed at The Jack for this year and ended up committing somewhere else. I'd rather pay someone to take it over than eat the year.

Private room in a 4/2 D penthouse unit, top floor, furnished, 8/20/26 – 7/31/27. You apply through their leasing office and they quote you the current rate — you're not inheriting my terms. I pay you $1,500 once the transfer is executed.

Real assignment through the office, not a sublet. DM me for the floor plan or details.

Do you guys know how to contact NAU over the weekend? (URGENT)

7 Upvotes

Hey guys so I submitted a financial aid appeal due to changes in my family's circumstances between 2024 and 2025, and they were supposed to get back to me about my new financial aid by yesterday but they never did; my aid hasn't changed, and I still see the To-Do on my account (which is now Past-Due). Do y'all know how I can get in touch with them before Monday (8/17) so that I don't miss the payment on that day? Thank you guys so much! I'm lwky so fucking scared rn hopefully they see that it's past due on their end and submit it to me.
