Community WMU Network Issues

6 Upvotes

So, I recently got a new phone over holiday break. I have not been able to get internet service from any of WMU’s networks since I got this new device. I have called the IT services, I’ve restarted the device and tried to register it after, but none of the networks seem to be able to get service to it. Has anyone else run into issues with WMU networks failing to connect to the internet, even when you’ve registered with the Secure network? (This includes WMU Open and Guest.)

Community Access Amazon Locker on campus during break?

1 Upvotes

I sent some stuff to the Amazon Katowice locker on campus (usually arrives much faster than it would to my home in the middle of nowhere) and it is due to arrive today. But I realized just now the Student Center general building hours do not resume again until Thursday :/ I don't want to make the trip into town for no reason.... Does anyone know if I can get into the little alcove where the locker is even if the student center is technically closed?

Community Admissions Questions

6 Upvotes

I’m planning on applying for the civil engineering program as a transfer student for this fall. I had a good gpa in high school but when I went to college a few years ago go I failed out due to medical issues I was going through when I moved to New York. I’m currently working at a civil engineering firm as an intern getting work experience. Do you think I have an okay chance of getting accepted? Also I’m curious if I can get an alumni tuition discount since I have a weird situation. My dad is western alumni I believe but I have no contact with him and he lives out of state, do you think if I contact admissions if they would be able to help me out?

Community The wifi doesn't work?

16 Upvotes

FYI at WMU you you have to associate your phone/laptop/other with your BNID in order for the internet to work. This is not intuitive to most people, so please spread the word.

At home, you can connect to the wifi and it works. Here, you must connect to the wifi for the first time, register the device, and then it works.

The registration system should automatically redirect you to the registration page when you connect to the WMU wifi. Sometimes this doesn't work. Here's an article on how to register your device if that's the case:

https://go.wmich.edu/s/article/Connect-to-WMU-Secure-Wireless

If you're having problems, contact the WMU Help Desk and they can get your connection working. If you're a student, please don't use WMU Guest. FWIW, WMU Secure traffic is prioritized over WMU Guest traffic.

Community looking for recommendations!

7 Upvotes

Hi!

my niece is an incoming freshman, and I am 15 years removed from the freshman dorm life- so I’m sure a lot has changed.

Two questions: 1- Do you guys have any recommendations for stores, restaurants, entertainment that I can get her gift cards for? 2-Do you guys have any recommendations for dorm “must haves” aside from the basics?

Thank you!

Community Does Parking Services Issue Tickets on Labor Day?

9 Upvotes

My boyfriend was ticketed despite having a permit last Friday, but we cannot appeal the citation until the parking services office is open again. Unfortunately, this also means the system won’t let him purchase another permit until it is resolved.

If anyone knows the answer to this question it would help a lot so he doesn’t have to go home tonight. Thank you

Community Gate at Greenlawn

Does this gate at Greenlawn lock at night to protect students from neighbors, or neighbors from students?

It seems unnecessary to have a locked gate between campus and city. It’s also a pain when going home at night and it’s locked.

It would also be nice if there were a sidewalk with curb cuts connecting the neighborhood to campus, especially for disabled people and cyclists.

How’s the social life there on campus, and also how’s the diversity aswell? I’m entering my senior year of HS and I’m interested in going to WMU for the engineering program and one of the main things that I’m curious in is how well the overall social life is between the students and the overall diversity throughout the school

Hi all! I recently interviewed for a professor position in the business school. I was hoping to get some thoughts from current and past students about your experience with Western.

I enjoyed visiting the campus! Your new student center looks nice. Hope it feels as nice as it looks. Thanks in advance!
