If 10 Colleges In Connecticut Were NBA Players
The Squander

I decided to take 10 Connecticut schools and in my own opinion describe them as if they were the TOP 25 NBA players pf 2017.

These are all great players not to mention some AMAZING schools, so I hope you just have a good laugh when you read this!

1. Yale University

Kevin Durant

I have nothing against Yale, but just like basketball when you take a bunch of big name players and out them all on one team, the team isnt really something you earned its made for you. ( LeBron joining a 47 win team isn't the same as KD joining a 73 win team he choked against ) but no shade.

2. UConn (University of Connecticut)

Kobe Bryant


Everyone loves Kobe he deserves a lot of respect. Uconn would be Kobe because they're the heart of Connecticut. No matter what school you go to, you acknowledge UConn respectfully.

3. Quinnipiac University

Lebron James

OK wait. Before you @ me for making my own school the #1 NBA player let me explain. I'm not biased. Lebron holds up the team back and when I think of his attitude and persona I think it correctly fits Quinnipiac.

4. SCCU

Klay Thompson

I feel like Klay is a good fit for Southern because although he isnt always top headlines, hes has such a fun personality and not to mention he's been on fire lately. Southern is coming up with their parties and they have some pretty kick ass teams.

( @Southern Boys Rugby ;) i got you )

5. Fairfield

LaMarcus Aldridge

LEEEEMARCUSSSS. Fairfield would be Lemarcus because when given th opportunity he arises to show everyone his skills.

6. Sacred Heart

Russell Westbrook

SHU would be Russell because they do have this status of a good school and they just mind their business. They stay killin it lowkey.

7. University of New Haven

Kyrie Irving

Kyries demeanor just screams UNH to me.

8. CCCU

Carmelo Anthony

9. Wesleyan

Al Horford

Wesleyan is such a great liberal arts school and fun just like Al.

10. University of Hartford

Marc Gasol

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
