Hey guys! Just wondering if anyone on here has placed out of first year writing by doing the challenge essay. I took AP Lang and Lit in highschool and got a 3 on both exams (sadly not a 4 on lit cus then I wouldn't have to deal with this) and feel sort of confident on my writing abilities. But ya if anyone knows I was curious if this was ridiculously hard to pass or something or if it would be worth my time to give it a shot because I really dont wanna take first year writing.

So I’m pretty much a twice daily stoner, part (only part, I do love being high) medicinal as it slows down my normally overactive adhd self and helps me socially, and I could go down to just before bed but where tf can I safely smoke on campus? Aren’t there like trails or whatever? I’m a transfer junior in mountain laurel for the spring and I know I can’t smoke in there. Thanks!

On Monday, I was in the library waiting for my study room, as I had an online class. My room reservation was for 3:00 PM, and there were two pledges inside wearing their suits.

I knocked on the door at 3:01 PM and said, “Hey guys, I have this room reserved for 3 PM.” They both responded, “BRUH,” and, while laughing, said, “Show me your reservation.”

I showed them my reservation, and one of them said, “Bro, WTF? I’m in a meeting. You’re going to have to come back later.”

I just went and sat down and joined my Zoom class. They left after 3–5 minutes and said, “Next time, be nicer, jackass.”

I have anxiety, and I would like to know if there was any way I could have handled this situation better.

Thank you.

In all seriousness college is expensive even at APP, so those of you who get money from fasfa(or don’t), how are you making up the difference?

Im curious as to how you guys are finding house parties/ house shows. Also interested in raves and Halloween parties. Something to do for October. LMK.

Got a log in error trying to log in to asulearn/canvas and supports website wont load. Appalnet wont load, can still view emails but not willing to log out and back in to see.

I saw they’re playing Wilmington on Sunday and figured I’d go but I don’t see anything about tickets.

Do you think they'll play Mo Bamba?

Hey everyone, just wanted to put out a PSA for local drivers, ASU students, and families in the High Country about Appalachian Mobile Mechanic (operated by a guy named Matt).
My elderly grandfather was having car trouble, pulled up Google Maps, searched "mechanic near me," and selected the closest option. Maps routed him straight to a private residential driveway in Zionville. When he realized there was no shop, waiting room, or garage, he left a polite 1-star review mentioning that he drove all the way out there for nothing and that mobile-only services shouldn't list a private house as a public storefront. 
Instead of just adjusting his Google profile settings to hide his personal address (which Google explicitly requires for mobile-only service area businesses), the owner took a screenshot of my grandfather’s review and posted this on his business Facebook page to mock and humiliate him publicly

The chancellor should make a statement and esp for the frats talking about what happens way too much. Frats and athletes protected by rich old men because of money or fame. Asu did the same as Cornell once don't forget After rape allegations at Appalachian State University last year highlighted flaws in the university’s handling of sexual assault cases, administrators say reforms will improve the process and better protect students.

In 2011, two women filed sexual assault allegations against the same two football players. They presented their claims to the university’s Student Conduct Board, which included undergraduate students. The board suspended both players.

The players returned to campus, and one was reinstated on the 2012 football roster, said Annie Hegar, a student who protested the handling of the sexual assault cases.

After more than 150 students gathered at ASU last spring to silently protest the university’s handling of the cases, Hegar — along with ASU students Frank Byrne and John Secrest — proposed the formation of an Interpersonal Violence Task Force to review the university’s sexual assault policies.

The task force, which is composed of students, faculty and staff is currently conducting research about the university’s policies and the climate on campus.

“Given some challenges from last year, we absolutely wanted to review processes and procedures,” he said.

The university has also revamped its process for reporting sexual assaults.

Chancellor Kenneth Peacock removed students from the Sexual Misconduct Board, which reviews assault cases, in August, Brown said. Three members of faculty and staff will now attend each assault case hearing.

“Research has shown that by (removing students), victims will have more confidence in a system that involves trained members,” said Secrest, who is also a member of the task force and vice president of student affairs for the UNC-system Association of Student Governments.

ASU students are giving positive feedback about the new policies, said Hegar, another member of the task force.

“The (students) have been very happy that a positive is emerging from the stigma of the ‘cover-ups’ by universities,” she said.

Secrest is also talking with student deans and vice chancellors of student affairs across the UNC-system to gauge the feasibility of similar task forces at other campuses.

ASG, which is composed of student leaders across the system, also needs to focus more on sexual assault reforms, said Byrne, chief of staff for the association.

About one in four college women are sexually assaulted, he said.

“It’s insane — 25 percent — and it’s notoriously under-reported,” he said. “It’s not a society I want to live in or anyone wants to live in.”

And always advocate to get local law enforcement involved. And a lawyer. Anyone who doesn't have an agenda to protect the university.

I accidentally left my jacket in one of the classrooms. Is there a lost and found for the building I could maybe swing by tomorrow?

Hello! I am strongly considering App State for grad school next fall. Right now it is one of my top choices (if I get in). I have visited Boone once back in Feburary of this year when it was snowing, so I do know what it can be like.

I currently have a 2021 Honda Civic that I love dearly. However, I wasn't sure if people really drive sedans in the snow up in Boone. Full discolsure, I am from the south (Chattanooga, TN) and rarely see snow or drive in it. I was wondering if I would need to trade in my car for a suv or other AWD if I went to App State. Just wnated to know this because it would possibly prevent me from even applying if I have to give up my car.

Just got into app state!! Preparing lists on what to get for college.

Is a bike worth it or should I walk to my classes? What do the locals think about bikes? From my experience in my neighborhood at least, they dislike people who ride bikes on the sidewalks so just wondering if its the same there.

Also any other weirdly specific things I should 100% get for dorms/daily life?

I currently live off campus and want to find someone to take over my lease in December. Are my chances good for finding someone in that time period?

I'm looking for more information regarding the Wooshies. The mythical cult followers of the MOD-1 Windturbine in 1979/1980. Anybody know if the spoof video they made exists somewhere or anybody who was there? Would love to find out more. Thanks in advance!

Hi all! I am a freshman at AppState and would love if i could find anyone here that has Tourette Syndrome. I would love to meet up and get to know eachother. I just want to find someone like me!
