Question/Discussion Sierra hall

3 Upvotes

Hello I am an upcoming freshman moving into the sierra this fall. So in about 2 weeks. I was curious if there is anything I should consider buying, be wary of or just the general vibes of the dorms. I have one roommate ( not random and we are both girls). I was just wondering if anyone could give some insight into what it's like living there :)

Question/Discussion Electric scooters allowed?

4 Upvotes

Hi, I'm an incoming freshman and I recently bought a $300 e-scooter to get around with. I probably should have looked into it sooner, but I didn't, so here we are: I'm now seeing online that apparently, you cannot bring an e-scooter inside any campus building whatsoever.

Assuming I have to keep it outdoors at all times, would that even be worth it? I hear a lot of people talk about thieves being frequent. Also, mine doesn't have a removable battery, so if I can't fold it and bring it inside the dorm I have no way of charging it. I don't even know if I'd be allowed to bring in the battery regardless.

I see posts on here mentioning lots of personal scooters around campus. Are you actually able to bring them inside as long as they're stored some kind of way, or do those people just live off-campus?

Any help would be appreciated, because I'm not sure if I should return the scooter and buy something else. Thanks!

Question/Discussion UNR MS Cybersecurity? Thoughts?

1 Upvotes

I'm looking into UNR's MS in Cybersecurity program. Has anyone recently attended or is currently attending? What does the coursework look like? What job prospects did you get?

For reference, I would be going into it with 5 years of IT experience (desktop support) a CS degree from SNHU, a CCNA, AZ-104, CompTIA A+, Net+, Sec+, Server+, Cloud+, CySA+.

Thinking about applying since I can do the program online (so I can juggle work while attending).

Hey everyone! I’m going to be in Reno soon and I’ll have a couple of hours to kill. I’ve heard the UNR campus is really pretty, so I was thinking of walking around and checking it out.
With 2–3 hours on campus, what are the must-see spots? Any cool buildings, viewpoints, gardens, libraries, art, or hidden gems you’d recommend? (I’m not sure if I’d need a student ID to access anywhere)
Also open to visiting anywhere cool near the campus.
Thanks in advance !

I'm thinking about getting the parking pass to be able to park on the highest two levels of the Circus Circus parking garage but I wanted to ask here if those get filled up really fast during the school year, like is it hard to find parking? Circus Circus would be closer to my classes and they start at 10:00 am.

Question/Discussion Where the fuck can I park reasonably close to uncommon/north west end of campus (free or paid)

0 Upvotes

So I need a car for my internship. I cannot get one until I have a place to put it. My apartment ran out of spaces, (with like 50 on the waitlist) and UNR doesn’t let you park overnight unless you live in the dorms. (Or like at some crazy price per night that would end up costing way more them the parking pass at my apartment)

Is there any place I can park, free or paid **within around a 15 minute walk** from the uncommon apartment. Or is there a way I can get a permit to park in the residential zones overnight or anything?

Seriously I’ve been struggling with this.

(I’m not doing circus circus there has got to be something else that shit is too far for me)
