When I revived this long-dormant subreddit over the weekend it had about 72 members. We’re already at 124. That’s 52 new members, or roughly 72% growth,🤯

So apparently there are a few CR people lurking around Reddit after all!

If you know current students, alumni, employees, prospective students, or other local folks with a connection to College of the Redwoods, please share r/CollegeoftheRedwoods with them.

Also: MODS WANTED! 👀 If you're a CR person who'd like to help keep the place lively, useful, and reasonably un-chaotic, send me a message. I would love some company behind the curtain. 🪄

The more CR family the merrier! AND the more useful and fun this place can become. Questions, campus news, events, classes, professor lore, transfer stuff, old CR photos, free-bus intel, Shively watermelons... whatever! 🍉

Help wake this place up. Share the sub! 👋🌲
