A few years ago, a little group was formed on myUMBC for the express purpose of creating a virtual space in which students could ask all sorts of academic questions (e.g. "Anyone have the textbook for ABCD123?", "What's your opinion of Dr. Whats-her-face's classes?", "How do I change my major?", and so on) and have them answered by students, faculty, and staff (including administrators!) at the click of a mouse.

It has been neglected.

Please, use it. It's lonely, and so very useful:
