10 Snacks Every College Student Needs In Their Dorm Room
MaryKate McLaughlin

1. Pretzel goldfish

Easily one of the most addictive snacks on the planet. Perfect for a late night study snack.

2. M & M’s

You might be playing a dangerous keeping these in your room but they’re perfect when you need something sweet.

3. Kettle corn

Want an easy way to make more friends on your hall? Put a bag of kettle corn in the microwave and I guarantee you that someone will come knocking on the door wondering what smells so good. Just always have a couple of extra bags on hand for movie nights with your friends.

4. Granola/ Protein bars

Oversleep for class and don’t have time to go to breakfast at the dining hall? Meet granola bars, your new best friends. My favorites are Think Thin, Special K, and Zone bars.

5. Yogurt with toppings

Another one of my favorite breakfast snacks. A healthier alternative to your usual breakfast consisting of PopTarts.

6. Tortilla chips

Another great snack when you have friends over or just need something to munch on. I personally love blue tortilla chips or Tostitos whole grain chips.

7. Trail mix

Another healthier snack. Perfect for in between breakfast and lunch. Get creative and make your own for a fun and easy twist.

8. Peanut butter

Peanut butter may be one of my favorite foods. One of my favorite snacks is peanut butter and a banana that I steal from the dining commons.

9. Fruit snacks

Do they make you feel like you’re a little kid again? Yes. Do they still taste good? Of course. My favorites are the classic Scooby-Doo fruit snacks or Mott’s.

10. Cereal

A must have for any college student. Perfect for just snacking on or as an easy breakfast.

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.

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.
