10 Dining Hall Hacks for the Bored Second Semester College Student

1. Order made to order eggs – and pizza. You can get personal pizzas from Lowry and you can get their crusts stuffed. It’s so worth it.

2. Crush berries from the dessert section and put them on your spinach or salad, and top it with sunflower seeds or almonds, also from the dessert section.

3. Dip your celery sticks in the peanut butter cups from the bagel station and they taste less sour and gross.

4. Put chocolate chips and granola on top of your yogurt for a healthy delicious snack.

5. Mix your drinks – I usually mix the juices with lemonade but I’ve seen people mix PowerAde and orange juice. Also if you have no Flex for a mocha you can get a to-go mug and go 3 parts hot chocolate, 1 part coffee.

6. Order a chicken sandwich with cheese and pile bacon on it.

7. Make a waffle sandwich – make 1 waffle in Kitt and put meat, cheese and veggies in between the two waffle halves.

8. Take a couple of bags of oyster crackers for on the go snacks.

9. Get a little ketchup thing and put nacho cheese in it to dip your fries in.

10. Make quesadillas in the panini press with multiple types of cheese.

Be creative and try new things!

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
