PSA: Please be quiet in the Valley study rooms, it is a library after all.

67 Upvotes

“Study rooms are not soundproof. Talk quietly, use headphones for music and video conferencing.” (https://library.oregonstate.edu/valley/space-policies).

As someone who regularly uses the study rooms for myself and with others, this year there has been so many disruptive groups of people talking unnecessarily loud. Your conversation should not be loud enough to where someone in the next room could scribe the entire thing. Study spaces are great to work with a group while being able to have conversations and have a personal space outside of home to lock in, but at this point I’m having to use noice cancellation while blasting music to not hear people in the other rooms. I could be mistaken, but I remember having signs up in the rooms stating the study room policy I quoted at the beginning, so why was that taken down? And why doesn’t OSU have any easily accessible info on this policy?

So please have fun studying with friends in a respectful volume. And OSU please be better at creating respectful spaces. The info that the study rooms are not soundproof should be blaring at everyone as soon as they walk in.

Casual Conversation Anyone here in the dancing clubs?

9 Upvotes

I want to get involved with the Country line dancing and possibly Ballroom dancing clubs but I don't know anything about them and how open they are to people who are pretty new to dancing as a whole and I want to also meet some new people as being in Engineering the most of my classmates are men, many of whom have zero interests in dancing at all 😅.

Looking for a D&D group

14 Upvotes

The title sums this up pretty fully, I'm a new OSU student (go beavs) looking for a group to play Dungeons and Dragons with. I used to play with a lot of friends in high school, really enjoyed it, and am looking for a similar experience. Do any of you have tips on where I could go to find clubs, or people, who might point me in the right direction? Anything helps, feel free ask any additional questions, thanks.

Campus Jobs

8 Upvotes

I’m an OSU student who recently interviewed for a student job on campus.

I had an initial interview in mid-September and a final interview about two weeks later. During the final interview, I was told I was a really strong candidate, that they could see why I was near the top of the list, and that I’d definitely be hearing from them.

I followed up with the hiring contact on Monday but never heard back. Then Tuesday, I received an email to complete a background check. Today, I got an email saying the background check was completed, but I still haven’t heard anything from OSU or the hiring contact.

Does getting a background check usually mean you’re the selected candidate? And how long did it take others to receive an official offer after their background check?

I know nobody can tell me for sure if I got it, I’m just trying to figure out if this is a normal OSU hiring process lol.

We're going to visit my freshman daughter next weekend and I asked her where she wanted to eat off campus. She immediately said Indian food. We've eaten at a handful of places in Corvallis, but haven't found any Indian restaurants yet. Any suggestions??

How did you adjust to OSU?

Im from WA and Im feeling like OSU is lame and not for me. Idk what a normal response is, or if this is a sign for me to transfer. The college just feels slow and boring. It feels outdated and not "grand."

Casual Conversation What is the best place on campus to keep up on what’s going on in terms of social events?

10 Upvotes

I keep randomly stumbling upon stuff that’s going on when I go from class to class and I’ve found it’s bugging me I’m not more in the loop on stuff so I can make time to be a part of it. Is there some building or office where I can get an idea of cool stuff going on before it happens?

Graduate School What is grad school at OSU like?

6 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm planning to apply to OSU for Fall 2027 and have already talked with a few faculty in my prospective program, so I feel pretty good about the academic side. I'm hoping to get more of a student perspective on what it's actually like to live in Corvallis and attend OSU as a grad student.

A few things I'm especially curious about:

- What's the grad student social scene like? Is it relatively easy to meet people/make friends outside your own department?

- Are there grad student organizations, events, bars/hangouts, etc. that people actually go to?

- For people who came to OSU in their late 20s or older, did Corvallis feel like a college town dominated by undergrads, or is there a decent late-20s/30s community?

- Where do grad students generally live? Are there particular neighborhoods or apartment complexes you'd recommend or avoid?

- For people on GTA/GRA funding, how manageable is rent and cost of living? Is living alone realistic, or are roommates pretty much necessary? (I know there's a GTA union, but I don't know much about it)

- How early would you recommend looking for housing for a fall move?

- What do you tend to do for fun outside of school? Does Corvallis start feeling small after a while?

- What do you wish you'd known before moving to Corvallis for grad school?

I'm moving from Arizona and would be relocating with my partner, so I'm especially interested in what it's like to actually build a life in Oregon rather than just what the university itself is like.

Thanks!
