We Want more College Games Broadcast Free!

Upvotes

It's Saturday night. You want to watch your team play—the university you went to, the one your family supports, the program you've followed for years.

Then you find out it's only on a streaming service you don't subscribe to. And next week? Who knows where that game will be. ESPN+, some cable channel, another app entirely. Following a full season means juggling multiple services just to find where the game is. Arizona fans deserve better than this.

Here's what we found: ASU, University of Arizona, and Northern Arizona University all score poorly for public access. Meanwhile, Arizona's pro teams—the Cardinals, Suns, Mercury, and Diamondbacks—have made sure games are available over the air. Our public universities, supported by Arizona taxpayers and alumni, should lead the same way.

• Conference agreements limit what universities control, and we respect that

• We're asking them to prioritize access when they can—and to be clear about where games actually are

• This matters because these are our teams, representing our state

We're bringing together Arizonans who believe that if your university's team represents Arizona, it should be accessible to Arizona. If this feels right to you, we'd love to have you join us. Anyone else frustrated by the guessing game of finding where the next game is?

I really want to drop out, but I don’t want to be apart of the percentage of people with adhd who don’t make it through college. I just can’t seem to do anything; I’m already falling behind and I have no access to medication. Any tips?

Graduation

Im getting stressed out about all the things I have to do before I graduate and the possibility of missing something. I can talk to my advisor but even then I can’t shake the feeling of missing something. Is there like a step by step list/guide that says do this, this and this at these times before May. 😔

Tired of being unemployed

Upvotes

I just moved here about a month ago as a transfer student from Phoenix. I’ve literally been applying to every business around here for maybe 2 months. NOBODY IS HIRING!!😔 I’m so tired of it. Yes I went on handshake too. I’ve called so many places and literally everyone tells me they are not currently hiring. My resume is pretty decent as well, I have some good experience and references. I’m majoring in nutrition, 22 years old, if you know some place that’s hiring HMU🥲 in desperate need of a job

Casino Night: Blackjack Dealers Needed! (No experience required!!)

Upvotes

Hello everyone! I’m the executive manager for the HRM department’s upcoming Casino Night taking place on Friday, September 11th. I’m making this post to see if anyone would be interested in gaining some experience (or just have some fun) as a blackjack dealer with your own table at this year’s event.

No previous experience is required!! We will be holding three training sessions next week on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday in the HRM building (we ask you at least attend one). At this time we are looking for hospitality students (major or minor), but if you are still interested, please reach out. Exceptions can be made if you’re willing to participate.

The gig is not paid (charity event) but hospitality students will earn a pathway credit as well as 10 work hours towards your degree (5-6 hours of actual work). It’s also a great way to get connected and make some friends along the way. Volunteer hours may be available for other students as well depending on your field of study.

If you’re interested or know someone who would be, please let me know as soon as possible and I will get you connected!

Thank you!

Training Times

Tues 9/08 (4pm-5pm)

Wednesday 9/09 (11:30am-12:30pm)

Thursday 9/10 (4pm - 5pm)

Friday 9/11 (Casino Night: Roughly 4:30pm-11pm)

Feel like I’m being lied to by financial aid

Upvotes

Hiii! I’m close to the end of my Pell eligibility and my account has therefore been flagged for investigation for possible overpayment/end of my eligibility. I was unaware that none of my financial aid would be disbursed as the to do list task does not state that and in fact tells me there’s no actions needed to be taken by me. When I saw that my funds hadn’t been disbursed, I called the office and was met with a student worker who gave no care on helping me whatsoever. I expressed frustration about not being able to get books, etc and she just sat there not responding. I did get a little hateful because of her lack of response and customer service skills, however I did tell her I know it wasn’t her fault and I wasn’t meaning to be rude towards her, she didn’t offer any solutions or explanations other than I needed to wait. She told me I should have an answer by the following Thursday (the 27th, the Thursday after classes began) and when I saw there was no update that date I called again, this time I was met with more solutions but still the wrong info, and told that they had 15 business days to look into it, so the 15th business day according to her would have been yesterday because it was added to my account on 8.13, and she suggested signing up for a payment plan and making a payment to avoid late fees and it would be $1500 per payment according to my account balance, the other day I went to self enroll into one and it added $500-$600 to my account for the payment plan. I sent a response to the payment plan email I received inquiring about the timeline I was given by the second student worker and the fact that she quoted me $1500 that was based upon my account balance and why when I went to self enroll they somehow added $500-$600 EXTRA to my total bill, they did not answer that question directly. Yesterday, I called again because it was the 15th business day and at 5:30-6PM my time (Texas) there was no update. She had said since yesterday was the 15th day, I was probably just waiting on them to release my hold. She put me on hold, and then I was told because they “didn’t receive my financial aid funds until August 17th, that date started the 15 business days” and somehow that made my 15th business day today. Called again today because again, NO update and no financial aid has been disbursed. I was met with “well today is technically the 15th business day so they have until the end of the day so all I can do is put in a ticket for them to check Monday.”

MONDAY is a holiday??? Yall are working on a holiday?? Even so, why do I keep getting the run around???? You’re telling me it’s taking THIS long to put my information into a national database and get info from that?

🚩 Be Careful Before You Choose NAU – Here's What the Numbers Say 🚩

Upvotes

Hey everyone,

If you're considering Northern Arizona University, I wanted to share some important stats that might influence your decision. I did some deep digging into official sources like NCES and NAU's own reports, and here’s what I found:

Retention & Transfer Rates: About 70% of first-year students continue into their second year, but a significant number of students transfer out of NAU instead of dropping out. This suggests that while students value their education, many don’t see NAU as the right fit long-term and choose to transfer elsewhere.

Graduation Rates: Only about 48% of students graduate within 6 years. That’s below the national average, meaning many students struggle to finish on time or at all.

Student Debt: The average debt upon graduation is around $32,000. Over 60% of grads leave with loans, which can be a heavy financial burden.

Employment Outcomes: About 45-60% of recent grads find jobs or continue schooling within 6 months. For some programs, it’s even lower, especially in arts and humanities.

Funding & Resources: NAU receives roughly $11,000 per student annually — less than many other public universities, which can impact campus facilities, faculty pay, and student services.

Diversity: Underrepresented minorities make up about 21% of the student body, and roughly 33% are first-generation college students.

Tuition: In-state undergrad tuition is around $11,300 a year, but out-of-state students pay over $26,500.

Minority Student Enrollment: The percentage of minority students has remained relatively stable at around 21-23%, with limited diversification over recent years.

If you’re planning to attend NAU, make sure you weigh these factors carefully. Do your research, consider your career goals, and think about whether the financial and graduation data align with your plans.

Has anyone dealt with unexpected move-out charges ? $2,000+ charge after moving out

Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice from anyone who has lived outside universaytiy or dealt with a similar situation in Flagstaff.

I lived in a 4 bed / 4 bath unit. My other roommates moved out before me, and I was the last person to move out of the apartment.

After I moved out, the apartment charged me over $2,000 for damages, including damages/cleaning related to the common areas.

My concern is that because I was the last person to move out, it seems like I’m being held responsible for damage to shared areas that were used by all four roommates. I don’t believe I should automatically be responsible for everything in the common areas just because I happened to move out last.

Has anyone here had a similar experience with me?

If so, were you able to dispute the charges or get them reduced? Did you contact the leasing office, corporate management, or get any legal/tenant assistance?

I’m especially interested in knowing what documentation I should request from them (inspection reports, photos, invoices, move-out records, etc.) before paying or disputing the charges.

Any advice from current or former NAU students would be really appreciated.

Yes, I posted it again because a classmate suggested it’s best not to include the name of the apartment .

Grad School Question

Upvotes

Hey y'all - I was just curious if anyone knows if NAU has access to finding out where I work? I am able to get an internship with the company I work for but I haven't been employed for the correct length of time to the standards that NAU has. My work would love to offer me an internship and everything is going well here that I have no intention of leaving and I am highly regarded at my place of work. I am struggling to find an internship elsewhere or I would just choose a different place. If anyone has any knowledge on this please let me know!

Axe/ese charges still showing up after opting out

I ended up opting out of the program due to not needing that many books but I still have access to all course materials through the program and have a charge on Louie. However on the Axe/ese log in page it shows I’ve opted out and I got an email confirmation saying I’ve opted out. Does anyone know why that is?
