r/WMU

If you think the fence should come down at Arcadia Creek Festival Place, please attend the Monday, July 6 Kalamazoo City Commission business meeting at 7 p.m. Speak during agenda item E. PUBLIC COMMENTS for up to 4 minutes about how the fence has personally impacted you and the groups that served the community there, including Food Not Bombs, WMed Street Medicine, Congregational Church of God in Christ, Uplift Kalamazoo, Lyfe Sacks of Hope, Recovery Revival, and others. If you plan to speak, RSVP on Facebook by searching for the event titled Take Down The Fence Protest at July 6 Kalamazoo City Commission Meeting. I'm hoping to get at least two dozen people to speak. If you need background information on this situation, look up the Facebook event.

Thank you.

Hello everyone!! My name is Olia and I am from Ukraine. I have been an exchange student in Kalamazoo. I am applying for WMU this year as an international student. And paying for the waver is a big financial cost for my family due to the ongoing conflict.
Does anyone know how I can get the free waver from the college itself??

Hi, I'm an exchange student from Spain. Some months ago I also posted in this subreddit asking about the meal plans.

Now my question is about mobility, move-in date for residence halls is 25 of August for new International students, since the Orientation is the 27th I'm planning to fly on the 26th.

I would be arriving at Chicago's airport at 14:25 and I would be taking a 17:50 train to Kalamazoo arriving at 21:00 aproximately. The thing is the train from O'Hare to the Union Station is 49 minutes and between inmigration control and more I might not be able to get in time. So the back up plan would be to take a bus at 23:35 arriving to Kalamazoo at 3:30am next dat (27th).

My question is about if anyone knows if the pick up services of WMU will be available at that time, also will anyone be at the front desk of the residence hall? Because if not I don't know how could I get in my room. Lastly, how safe is really Chicago, some people say that it isn't as safe as other cities and I would need to be moving with 3 suitcases and a backpack through a city I don't know and maybe even without data plan.

Is there a better website to find events than logging in each time? I want to make some Western friends before the fall. Freshman btw

Hi! I’m an incoming freshman this fall and have an ESA cat coming with. Does anyone know if there are precautions the school takes when it comes to room checks and things so that she doesn’t get out? I’m living in the east heights. My biggest worry is an RA or something coming in for a room checks, not knowing she’s in there, and her sneaking out.

She is chipped & has a tracking collar on 24/7.

Looking for drivers for the BroncoNav shuttle here on main campus!

Pays $15 an hour. Must have a valid license, be a WMU student, and ability to be hired in by the University.
