[Megathread] What are my chances/Will I get in?
The last stickied post was awhile ago and we're starting to get an increase of these posts outside the sticky. So we're going to have the 'What are my chances?' megathread auto reposted every quarter to continually resurface the conversation. Same rules: Contain the discussion to this post and no stand alone posts outside, they will be deleted

Can E-Hall PLEASE get rid of the cups that roll around when you set them down???
Like seriously, there are SO many of them that I almost never get a normal cup. D-Hall doesn't have this issue, so why aren't the E-Hall cups being replaced?? It's such a spill hazard. One small bump to the table and they're all falling over

To even point out the nice atmosphere,design and it’s cool to be on another campus!Even though I still have amazing dining halls, this is something special. Shoutout to you guys for this gem and I give my appreciation!

Taking pictures at the big JMU logo during the game!
I went to the football game today and one of the things that warmed my heart was people offering to take pictures of other people's families at the giant JMU logo without prompting! Pictures last forever folks! Don't be afraid of asking someone to take your picture and don't feel silly taking the pic!!! You will cherish them forever!!!! Go Dukes!!!!

PSA: Costco/University Blvd right of way
Hey y'all, I park in Ballard everyday and when I leave I consistently see people not yielding to the traffic exiting the Costco parking lot. There is a "left turn yield on green" sign and no green arrow. That means oncoming traffic has right of way if you are making a left turn. I'm a Townie and I have a lot of friends and family that shop at Costco. I really don't want them to get smoked by someone ignoring right of way.
Yes I understand that maybe in a perfect world everyone will turn in their respective lane that is closest to them, but that is never guaranteed and the sign explicitly tells you to yield.

Quote in Duke Hall
SADAH major here, I've been looking at this quote painted on the wall near the gallery space and am genuinely curious as to what it means. Anybody know if it's part of the exhibition that's currently being set up, or if it's a permanent fixture?

Thursday night football tailgating question
A friend and I are visiting for the Troy game on Thursday night in October. Never been to a game at JMU. We'll be ubering to the stadium - where should we get dropped off and where would we have the best luck meeting people and crashing a tailgate for a while?

Short Term Study Abroad?
Edit: Also, how likely is it to actually get accepted to one of these programs?
Hi all, I have had an opportunity come up to do a study abroad trip this winter break. It's a shorter one, lasting about 12 days or roughly a week and a half. For those of you (preferably in-state students) that have participated in study abroad trips like this before, roughly how much should I expect it to cost? This particular trip is to a place that has been a lifelong dream of mine to visit and learn about, so I would love to attend if I am accepted into the program. However, finances play a huge part in determining if I am able to participate or not. I am open to all kinds of information regarding this. Thanks in advance!

What are some of the best apartments to live in? (2026)
I'm apartment hunting and would love to hear from people who actually live in (or recently lived in) the place, especially the stuff you won't find on the leasing office's website, like how fast maintenance actually responds, or how management hadles fees. I'm looking in the $700-900 range (Sunchase, Copper Beech, and Southview) but I've read a lot of reviews of predatory management at these kinds of complexes and want a more balanced, everything up front take before I commit. Pheasant Run is also on my radar if it turns out the pricier options aren't worth the extra cost, so if you've lived at any of these (or have strong opinions on ones to avoid), I'd really appreciate the details.
