Whether you are Chowan University alumni, staff, or current student there are probably some pretty hilarious moments you have captured on campus. I can almost guarantee there is more than one situation on this list you will be able to identify with if you have spent even a fraction of your time there. Honestly, Chowan provides some of the most entertaining and heartfelt moments. If your Hawks pride isn't already through the roof, after reading this you will be glad to call yourself a Hawk...even if we are kind of weird.

1. If you have ever attended a Chowan sporting event, you might have noticed our dear friend Randy Harrell, the vice president and head of student affairs, chanting, “C.U., C.U.” to represent that good old Chowan pride. Go Hawks!

2. Let’s face it, you don’t have to wait until Friday to get super hyped because Fried Chicken Tuesday is everything! You also request the biggest piece of chicken and load up on the sides; your life is basically complete.

3. Whenever you hear the words “Bingo Night,” you automatically clear your schedule so you don’t miss out. The chance to win money is no joke since #brokecollegekid is basically your life.

4. You honestly don’t understand why those killer bees hover around campus all year round!

5. The annual Easter egg hunt held in Squirrel Park will literally turn friends to foes in a matter of 2.5 seconds. You know there is money hidden in one of those eggs, and you aren’t afraid to unleash that competitive spirit to find it.

6. You go to Maxway for fun. I’m just going to leave that at that.

7. If the café happens to make chocolate chip cookies that day, they disappear in a matter of two minutes. You’re also super salty for the rest of the day if you don’t get one.

8. You live for S.O.A.R. because the good food comes out. Hamburgers, macaroni salad, baked beans and that lemonade though!

9. The Snow Ball gives you the chance to stunt on everyone for a few hours.

10. Once you’ve graduated, you think you’ll leave and never come back, but you score a job on campus and stay there for the rest of your life. Kidding, but seriously though.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
