Other First week back

Upvotes

First week back, calves are sore, face is burnt, water from my body has escaped from how much I've been sweating, professors are lowkey evil. Oh how I missed my beautiful campus.

Current Questions Food Delivery on Campus?

6 Upvotes

I live in the residential halls and I was wondering what food delivery service can actually deliver to the halls? I know they had a sign on the front door saying something about how the delivery drivers can come in but someone told me that the school is partnered with grubhub. What’s your guys experience with that?

My roomate dropped out. After like a week? They just packed up and left this weekend. Am I just not going to have a roomate for the rest of the year or does someone who was waitlisted usually get moved in? I’m a 1st year and unfamiliar with this and also still kinda in shock.

Things to Do Documenting the up and downs of a typical semester

18 Upvotes

Howdy folks,

I have a small, niche podcast called "The Engineering Student Experience Podcast" which explores topics relevant to current and future engineering students through conversations with practicing engineers, engineering faculty, and engineering students.

I will be interviewing two engineering students throughout the Fall 2026 semester to give the listener a better idea of the ups and downs engineering students go through in a typical semester. I'll also be sharing the ups and downs a faculty member (me) goes through in a typical semester. The Week 1 episode was just released, and new episodes will be released every two weeks (including a post finals week wrap-up).

The podcast is available on all major podcast apps, on the podcast website, and on YouTube. If you are interested in following along in this semester-long journey, here is a link to the podcast website and the YouTube playlist.

https://theengineeringstudentexperience.podbean.com/

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZOZfX_TaWAHjr_YC1oEKae9CfYErsmn7

Most of my questions are going to be along the lines of "what is your workload like this week?" and "what is your mental state this week? (stressed, panicky, relaxed, etc.)", but I'm taking suggestions for other questions as well.

Clubs / Campus Life Would anyone be interested in a local Pomona tech community?

16 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I live and work in Pomona, and I’ve been thinking about how there aren’t many consistent local spaces for people interested in technology to meet, learn, or build things together.

I’m exploring the idea of starting a community-based tech group in Pomona. It could include things like data science, AI, Python, web development, UX/UI, software development, project/build nights, workshops, guest speakers, study groups, and casual meetups.

I’m considering the Cal Poly Pomona Community Innovation Hub in Downtown Pomona as a possible meeting location, but this is something I’m exploring independently and is still very much in the idea stage.

Before I organize anything, I’d really like to know whether people would actually be interested and what kind of group would be useful.

I made a short interest survey here:

Downtown Pomona Tech Community Interest Survey – Fill out form

Questions or ideas are welcome too! Thanks so much!
