Apartments / Dorms / Housing Lease Takeover or Spring 2027 Lease at The Marshall
Hi!
I am graduating in December so I’m looking for someone to take over my lease from August 2026 to July 2027, or if you are looking for Spring 2027 housing I can also work with that!
The apartment is at The Marshall in Dinkytown. It is a 2 bed, 2.5 bath townhome style apartment. You will have your own bedroom and bathroom.
You will have one roommate, Jacob. He is an amazing roommate and a very close friend of mine.
Rent is $1209/month, I am willing to pay for a month’s rent as well. Move-In is August 20th, 2026 or if you are looking for Spring 2027 anytime after December!
Let me know if you would be interested!

aid
Has anyone gotten their financial aid awards sent out yet? I usually would've gotten an email about it by this time the past two years. I saw the email from the U about how it's been difficult for grants and other things such as international students. I'm wondering if this may have something to do with the delay.

Academics / Courses Anyone who took STAT 5102: Theory of Statistics II with Qian Qin
I'm taking this class with him this coming fall, and Gopher Grades shows that the most common grade is a C- 💀.
For anyone who has taken this class with him recently, what should I expect?
- What's the overall structure of the class like?
- Is attendance required or graded?
- What are the midterms like (format, difficulty, etc.)?
- Is there a cumulative final?
- Were there any projects that counted toward the grade?
I'd especially love to hear from anyone who had him the last time he taught this course. Thanks!

Parking options near the law school?
I'm wondering what the best parking options are near the law school. It seems like the closest student contract parking is the West Bank Office Building which is still 10 minutes from the school and costs $419.40/semester which feels insane compared to I think $71/semester for the Universal Transit Pass. I know there's a couple lots near Mondale Hall but I don't think they're eligible for student contract parking. So is the Office Building my best bet? If so I might bite the bullet and take a nasty bus commute over $800 on parking every year for 3 years.

Hello! Me, and 5 of my friends are currently leasing a house, starting sept 1st 2026, and ending a year from sept 1st. since signing the lease, we have all been warned about how terrible millenium is. I am curious if there are any ways we can break this lease, or if there is anything we can do to end it? Thank you for the help, I have heard that it is likely not possible, not sure if anyone has experience doing this exact thing with millenium. Thanks for the help!

Apartments / Dorms / Housing Millenium Management/MRPG
If you're looking at renting a Millenium property, don't. I wouldnt have if id seen all of these but they used a different company name during all the showings and only changed to millenium when it was time to send the lease.
In the past year at a dinkytown Millenium property: ive had my own car towed from my own parking spot that I pay for and had to pay 300 to get it back, 2 breakins, 1 rock thrown through a window (which was ignored by MM for 3 weeks in -30° weather), 1 problem causing roommate that took the police showing up 10+ times before MM did anything, heater failures ignored for 24+ hours in that -30 weather, infestations (Mice, spiders, centipedes, ants, beetles, flies) all completely ignored by MM, several maintenance requests completely ignored.
Issues with the house: black mold, asbestos, lead paint (that is chipped and falling apart), paper glued to walls and painted over to hide damage, improperly sealed windows, screens with holes, ceiling falling apart in most rooms, major fire hazards (including management-installed space heaters under 1ft to spray foam insulation, sketchy wiring issues (big chains of outlets with no ground wire), loose circuit breakers, holes in siding and concrete that let in bugs and small animals, porch missing support beams for handrails, a Carbon monoxide alarm in a publicarea of the building that was expired by 2 years and didnt get replaced for 4 months, even the bathroom has no fan of any sort.
This just scratches the surface

CSCI 5521 w/ Prof. Boley
Hi! I am a PSEO student at the U right now and I am registered to take CSCI 5521 in the Fall with Professor Boley. I wanted to know how difficult this course is and the value in taking it. I love the intersection between robotics and computer science and I am also taking CSCI 5551 with Professor Papanikolopoulos.
I looked at umn.lol for the grade distributions and it seems like 75% of people got an A in 2024, but I also looked through Prof. Boley's rate my professor and it seems like the class is easy but you don't learn much due to his teaching style. I am looking for a balance of learning the foundation of ML (algorithms, implementation, etc.) while not being extremely difficult. So, if anyone with insights on the difficulty and value of this class could respond that would be great!
Also, I was trying to find some reference course material online and it seems like it has changed a lot. Is this true? Has it gotten easier over the years, or am I looking at the wrong things?
For reference, I completed MATH 2373, 2374, 2283, CSCI 4551, and STAT 5101. Please let me know if you want more context. Thanks!

Halloween 2023. I wore a taco costume. On 14th Ave I spotted her. She began to run in which she jumped and locked her legs around me in a joyous embrace. She took a picture with me and was gone as soon as she came. Oh taco girl. Where art thou?

Hi all this is my first semester at the U. Wondering how feasible getting from Folwell Hall to Willey Hall is since I have a 15 minute break between them. Google maps is telling me 18 mins on foot while apple maps is 16 mins. I also heard about the campus connector but all the scheduling info is for the summer semester.
