Hello, I recently moved to Marion from Missouri and on top of that I bought a car from a Missouri dealership before I moved and have yet to register it for the first time. This is my first time moving and my first time getting a car by myself. I seemed to have misplaced or lost my title in the move somehow and I’m panicking. I need to register my car asap and am just entirely lost. I have no family or friends who know how to help my situation so I’m here out of desperation. The only files I seem to have are documents titled “application for Missouri title and license” “odometer disclosure statement”and “motor vehicle dealer written agreement to sell without title”
Please help I’m desperate 🙏

Did y'all know Molly Hatchet will be playing the Gallatin county Popcorn Days in Sept?

For those that aren't familiar with them tell your parents! And they're good old Southern Rock circa the late 70's and 80's.
Edit to add, they're scheduled 9:15 to 10:45, and it's FREE! Somewhere in Ridgeway (north east of Harrisburg) but it's a tiny town so shouldn't be hard to miss!

Hi everyone! We’re planning to move to Marion and are an Asian-Canadian family of three. My husband recently got a job there paying around $75,000/year, and I wanted to ask if that would be enough for a family of three to live comfortably in Marion?

I’d also love to hear about:

1. What are the typical rental rates for a 2-bedroom apartment/house?
2. How is the crime/safety situation, are there particular neighborhoods you would recommend or avoid?
3. How welcoming is Marion to Asian families/newcomers?

Thank you!

EDIT: Thank you, everyone! I really appreciate all your replies. Indeed, this is an overwhelming step for our family, but I feel much better after reading the things you’ve shared. We hope to become part of and contribute positively to the Marion community. ❤️

Hi guys, does SIU have any website or group where we can find reviews for the previously taught courses? As the course description provides very less information about each course. This could help us choose the best course for ourselves.

My boyfriend loves watching trains. I want to take him somewhere to do that around Carbondale, but have no idea what time is best or where the best train watching spots are.

I moved here a few years ago and have lived in several other parts of the country. Do y'all not have "Flea Markets" around here?
Also, besides Evansville IN and Carbondale, where are some good USED record stores? (Don't say Walmart).

I’m taking a weekend trip to Shawnee National Forrest, IL and I want to do some fossil hunting. Any recommendations for good spots or trails for fossil hunting?

Thanks.

Is attending orientation beneficial for grad students? Does anyone have any idea what goes around at the day of orientation?
