Transferring to Seton Hall University has been hands down the best decision of my life. After this year I gained so many friends, sisters, and career opportunities!

It is funny though because most schools do not have as many rules as we do...so if you're an incoming freshman listen up!

1. Do NOT turn right coming out of campus!

SHU is located in South Orange, we are snug neighbors with Irvington and Newark...Don't turn right:)

2. ALWAYS plan ahead to eat at the cove.

Planning on picking up a quick bite before class? Do NOT even think about going to the cove unless you class is three hours from now or you do not mind being 30 minutes late.

3. Use you pirate bucks/ caf swipes to get chasers

Out of coke or lemonade? Don’t go buy more at Stop and Shop, either fill up a cup in the caf or use your Pirate Bucks- it will save you a ton in the long run!

4. FRESHMAN: Do not breathe swiping into AQ/ Boland after you go to a party

The RAs and security will get you in trouble, get your sh*t together for one second just to swipe in that door.

5. Hide at Dunkin (or anywhere) during the fire alarms

If you are a SHU student you will know exactly what this means. After 38 fire drills in the middle of the winter, it gets old real fast. So avoid them all costs and go get a donut! I even know people who purposely go out in their towels or barefoot to get back in early (so smart).

6. Sitting on the green is a holiday

If it is nice out the “green” on our campus will have 99.9% of our undergrad (the other .1% sucks) sitting out, listening to music, and spiking their on the go water bottles! Always skip class for it.

7. Being late for class to get Dunkin is always worth it.

So worth it.

8. Always wear flip flops or sneakers to frat houses.

Literally people pee in their frat basements, DO NOT wear your super cute shoes!

9. Stoney’s on Wednesdays

You’re welcome. Stoney’s is the best burger place ever, especially when you get a free burger or fries with it!

10. NEVER STEP ON THE SEAL!

Saving the most important for last, do NOT step on the seal or you will not graduate! You think I am kidding about people taking this seriously, but nothing touches the seal like ever.

Follow these rules and you will be ready for this year! Go SHU!

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.
