Off-campus housing is one of the biggest challenges students face, yet most universities have little visibility or control over the experience. myhousr is a student-first platform that connects universities, students, and property operators to create a safer, more transparent and seamless off-campus housing experience.
Schools like the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) are already leveraging myhousr to bridge the gap between campus life and off-campus housing. By providing verified listings, real-time student insights and streamlined communication, myhousr helps universities enhance student satisfaction, retention, and success beyond campus.
In addition the myhousr app gives students access to hundreds of discounts at local stores and venues. To celebrate the latest myhousr partnership with the Lincoln Stars, myhousr is excited to offer all NIC Partners BOGO tickets to the Lincoln Stars vs. Omaha Lancers game on the February 7 at 7:05pm.

This project is part of a USDA NIFA Higher Education Challenge Grant titled "Development of a diverse and competent food safety compliance workforce to enhance trust in a secure food system" in collaboration with NC State University and Tuskegee University.
Specifically, the MS student will likely focus on a project assessing student perceptions of careers in auditing, inspection, and assessment and/or evaluate programmatic data from stakeholders using the newly developed curriculum and resources. Project topic is flexible but will focus on some aspect of food safety auditing, inspection, and assessment. Ideally, a student would begin integrating themselves into the project/grant asap.

Hi all,
I just wanted to send a quick e-mail to apologize that I won't be able to join you all for the Lunar New Year Celebration... I have a few meetings that I can't postpone starting at noon. So, I will be there at 11 am, but I will have to leave early. If I don't get to see you there, I hope you enjoy this gathering!
Thanks, Sumin, Susie, and everyone that cooked and put so much time into this celebration. I am looking forward to trying at least a dumpling (or two!).
I hope you will all enjoy the day!
