10 Things Every Good SHU Student Knows
Charlotte Mango

When you are an SHU student you manage to pick up on m

1. You always ask your friends "Cove or Caf?" when it comes to dinner.

Usually you make your decision based off of what you see being served that night or what the specialty bars are.

2. You always know what doors to use to sneak people into your building.

Unless you live in Brownlee.... then you kinda get gipped...

3. You know to not go to the library during finals week...

Because slow wifi and crowded places suck. Plus there usually aren't any tables or study room.

4. Havey Clock is a common meeting spot

Havey Clock is the most central location on campus. It's literally within a 2-minute walk from like every dorm room and main location

5. You know Lot 131 and E lots are the most dreaded lots to park in.

131 is right across the street from the bottom of the hill so it's either walk up or try to catch the next shuttle. You *might* be able to catch the on campus shuttle if you park in E lot but don't bet on it. But hey those stairs are a workout.

6. You know people go all out for Christmas on The Hill

Guys get suits, girls wear everything from cocktail dresses to ball gowns. So many lights, so much cheer.

7. Fire alarms are your worst enemy...

You never know who did it... just what floor. Each one always seems to have a story....

8. Scheduling is the bane of your existence....

Because nothing says "I Hate life" more than 6 am scheduling... nothing....

9. Missing the Shuttle = 80% chance of being late

If you typically catch the last shuttle possible before your class and you miss it don't expect to be late unless you book it down the hill. (which by the way is 3/4 of a mile itself)

10. You know what Sunday evening means....

It's the Hunger Games at the cove, which means you get there early and grab fast because it will be the only time you can do a full stocking for your room.

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
