In the case of TTHEP, it meant that students’ medical education could not include discussions of health disparities among racial and sexual minorities including Hispanics, African Americans and members of the LGBTQIA community.     

you can't address systemic disparities in medicine if you do not acknowledge them.

Hi! I am an upcoming freshman at TTU for Fall 26’. I’m sure a lot of people know what pre-nursing is for, But i’m afraid I lost its meaning. Sorry if I’m not making sense here.

I want to become a sonographer or somewhere along the pregnancy work pathway. I’m aware TTU doesn’t offer anything along sonographing (that i know of..) But I came to TTU from the mere pressure of my family.

But i’m afraid TTU doesn’t offer what I want to achieve in my life. Is there anyway TTU could help me get on that track while still attending?

The reason why I mentioned pre-nursing is because I got thrown into it by my family til I “find something along my dream pathway.” So they are assuming pre-nursing is the closest to it.

What should I do?

Hey, I’m a potential incoming L1 and had a question about how well Texas Tech places in the bigger cities for jobs. I visited Lubbock and it’s great, but I grew up a city yuppie and was hopping that I could find a decent job in a larger city after graduation. I already know I’m not smart enough to go big law but would I be able to find a decent job in one of Texas bigger cities if I do alright in class ranking?

So I check in with the college of education and then change my major to english there?

Is Raiderlink down? I have tried multiple browsers and incognito. I am TTUHSC for reference.

I'm planning on attending Texas Tech in the spring although im not too sure. As a daughter of immagrent parents, moving 6 hours away is going to be hard to convience them to get on board. Is it worth it to be driving 6 hours and back every break, and im not even sure if I can get a car by that time. If anyones gone through this or has advice please let me know. I was orginally planning on attending UT Austin but because I want to major in animal science and pre-vet I realized that I would be better off in Tech and going to UT would feel like im wasting my time. When I brought this idea up to my dad he discouraged it and told me to just attend UT to be closer to home and he dosent really understand how university works, as hes never been and im the first in the family to go. Im also scared about leaving my little sister behind.

hi! I just moved to lubbock (24F) and have no idea where to begin with making friends/getting into a social life here, especially being post-grad.

a few questions:

1. are there any movie theaters that have memberships like AMC does? like paying monthly to see multiple “free” movies?

2. any car wash memberships that are touchless and under $30/mo? i’ll need to register 2 cars!

3. are there any student hair salons that offer cheaper trims/blowouts?

4. good bars to be social/make friends?

5. good coffee shops to chill and read a book?

6. gym memberships with cardio areas, weight room, and classes?

7. any fun book clubs? (recent reads are Red Rising, Throne of Glass, Freida McFadden books)

8. good, but not too expensive, nail salons?

also just ways to get involved and get out there!

I had an idea for a student organization, but not sure if I would have the participation needed to get it off the ground.

- Organizing peaceful demonstrations
- Writing public comments on environmental reviews
- Environmental policy discussions
- Hosting speakers from conservation organizations
- Training students in advocacy and lobbying rules
- Supporting wildlife and habitat protection
- Monitoring local development proposals

I honestly feel that this is so relevant right now especially with the whole AI data center partnership we're doing with the "g-spot" right now, as well as the talks about building a data center here in Lubbock. I just want our voices to be heard.

I know we have Ecotech as a student organization at Tech but I honestly feel like we can do more in terms of civic engagement rather than just park cleanups.

Does this interest you? I would need a minimum of 5 people to join in order to get this thing going. Thanks for reading :)

Hey raiders! Thinking about doing Phd in Nutritional Sciences at Tech. Is there anyone doing that, who I could contact and get some more info to help me with my decision? I'm from Europe btw, so even better if you are as well, so I can hear about if US college is some kind of a shock for European students. Anyway, if you are (or know anybody) willing to help, please contact me! Big thanks!

Hi is there any international student who did Community college and transferred to TTU ? how much tution fee do you guys have to pay per yer/sem and health insurance? if you have gotten 4k$ scholarships as a transfer student? if anyone here dm me pls

I’ve been wondering not like I exactly need it but the extra could be useful especially when it comes to gas and my car in general when I get up there. Are there any jobs yall would recommend especially if I’m majoring in engineering decent hours but not crazy intense? Or do yall think I should just avoid getting a job…

Im planning on going this fall 2026. Thing is im 23 and although a lot will argue thats still really young, its up there when it comes to college experience. A major fear of mine itself is missing that experience regardles sif it exists or not. (Moreso the interactions people ill meet).

But a major concern of course is the costs and if its worth it at all as opposed to if I stayed home and did it online and remained in employeed. Based on my current income id make/save approx 15k which includes the savings of the money id otherwise be spending at tech (4k) for the semester. Id also plan to transfer again anyway due to friends and how inconvenient the location is. The reason thats an issue is, again, id have to go another year again without any kind of interaction or social life aside from a few friends I have at home. To which ofc id be 24. And regardless of what people say the older you get in college the more socially isolating it is... maybe... not too sure.

So should I just say, screw it and go anyway? Join clubs, marching band, fk around and find out? Or just stay home and make money while finishing up classes at home and just do other things that I wouldnt otherwise do? Such as travel (I mean there wouldnt be much to do aside from that lmao. Travel and drink... and... not much to do out there tbh. So the question would be life experience vs material gain/responsibility.)

P.S. The goal is to eventually become a psychiatrist if that matters. So in my situation, what would yall personally do in my shoes.

Hey everyone! I recently moved to Lubbock and I'm still getting familiar with the area. Back where I lived before, I would occasionally use THC products in the evenings because they helped me relax and wind down before bed.

I'm trying to figure out what people around here recommend in terms of places to buy from. I'm mainly looking for decent products that are somewhat on the stronger side. If anyone has suggestions or anyone they've bought from that had good experiences with, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

I currently have 3.19UW 3.68 Weighted and 1400 SAT.

I want to earn as many cords as possible before I graduate. I almost went to UNT and they had a ton of cords for stuff like study abroad, “healthy eagle” (attending student health meetings), sororities, grades, etc what clubs have cords?

I am an incoming sophomore in high school. My goal is to attend Texas Tech University's Rawls College of Business. During my freshman year, I took AP Human Geography and earned a score of 3 on the AP exam. I did not take any business classes because I focused on completing my graduation requirements and participated in football. I finished the year with a 3.2 unweighted GPA and ranked in the bottom 50% of my class.

My sophomore year schedule includes Football (double blocked), AP Physics 1, Business Information Management, Honors Algebra II, AP Seminar, AP World History, and Honors English II. I also plan to join DECA during my sophomore year.
