Hello!

My roommate and I are looking for another roommate,

Welcome to all.

We have a 3 bed 2 bath for 667/month house by the public library

Parking on site- utilities not included but typically equate to 65 a month

Please reach out if you are interested in moving in for 26-27 school year!

I love painting drawing animating paper mache and writing
We have a patio great for grilling or bon fires
My roommate loves fashion and has a very cute kind girl cat

Hey y’all!

I got my first speeding ticket in the 5 years I’ve been driving a few days ago. The cop wrote me up as going 70 MPH in a 55 MPH zone in Wilkes County.

I’ve heard mixed reviews about the lawyers in Wilkes County or if I might even need a lawyer. Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have any recommendations for lawyers in that county?

Thank you so much in advance

Has anyone here taken the online MBA program? I am getting ready to finish my undergrad and thinking of continuing with the online MBA program. Would love to hear any pros or cons!

Preface: I'm not trying to start any arguments. My parents are very conservative/Republican, and I know they will have a strong reaction to this situation.

Hello guys,

I'm an incoming freshman and chose same-sex housing with a random roommate.

I am male as well!! sorry should have included this

A few days ago I found out my assigned roommate is a trans woman (male to female). I did not choose co-ed housing, so I'm a little confused about how this happened and what my options are.

I'm wondering how the roommate change process works. Is it possible to request a different roommate before move-in, or would I have to wait until after the semester starts?

If anyone knows how housing handles situations like this, I'd appreciate the advice.

Hey y’all, incoming sophomore at App State looking to get certified as an EMT basic this upcoming year. Summers nearing its end, so I was wondering if anyone here has taken a course somewhere in Boone during the school year to get theirs?

I’ve looked at Caldwell community college which seems like it’d work fine. Only caveat is that the main campus is 40 minutes away, while the Boone campus is obviously closer, but I’m not sure where they hold their EMT classes.

Any tips?

I applied to some student services jobs and it says they begin evaluating the applications last month and the proposed date of hire is on July 21st next. Fall semester is around the corner. I havent heard anything back.

Hello! Are there any bars in town that allow under 21?

Im an incoming freshman and im planning to become an Art Studio major. I don't really know a lot about the art department though and was hoping to get some insight from someone who's currently enrolled. My hopes are that ill learn stuff to help with illustrating, like drawing backgrounds, composition, colors, anatomy, etc.

Some questions I have are: What are your opinions, have you learned anything useful, do you enjoy it, what kind of classes do you take, what do you do in said classes, and finally is this just a giant waste of time and money and im screwed. Thank you!

I’m buying a used car that’s moderately priced (10-13k). What will last me and is able to do a hour commute 3 days of the week to Boone? I want a car that’ll last me a long time too even after school ends

Hey I’m taking A S 2016, it says we get to learn hands on and stuff. Do I get to learn like banjo n vocal styles? Sorry if it’s a silly question.

happy first bill of the season everyone! does anyone know when the financial aid refunds hit?

hey guys! i'm an incoming freshman moving into white hall. i was wondering if mattress toppers are actually needed as i don't want to spend money if the mattresses are actually not that bad haha.

i also wanted to ask if a 5x8 carpet is too big for the dorm Lmk 👀 thank you!

I’m wondering if there’s any way to switch from the main campus to online or the hickory campus?

I’m a rising sophomore at Roanoke college, but I’m looking to transfer to Appalachian either in the spring of sophomore year of fall of junior year. I want to learn product design. Does anyone have an opinions on the quality of that major

I’m an incoming freshman and I’m apart of the Trio SSS program, I was curious if there were any current participants or past that could tell me what it’s like and how it helped you.

Hey! Hope you’re all doing great. I’m an incoming freshman and was wondering if anyone had parking spots or knew where I could get one.

Do I need to buy shower shelves for the inside of the shower?

Hey guys!! Where on campus do people actually stop and read a flyer? Student Union boards, the library, specific dorms or dining spots?

I built left917.net to pull all the Boone news and events into one place, because I was tired of Instagram being the only way to find out what's going on around here. Got a great response on the original post, and I've been putting flyers up around town (The Cardinal, Lily's, Boone Saloon, Espresso News so far). Now I want some up on campus before everyone's back for the fall, and I'd rather put them where they'll actually get seen than blanket every pole. Off-campus spots welcome too. Trying to do this the non-spammy way, so any local wisdom appreciated!
