So, as an incoming first-year student, I of course want to know about the wonderful school that I will be attending and what it has to offer. Along the way on my quest for information, I have heard some strange things about App that only make me want to go to the university even more.
1. If you get hit by an AppalCart, the school will pay for your tuition.
I only have to get hit a little bit, right?
The bell is going to have to file a restraining order from the rubbing that's about to go down.
3. You have to be "granola" if you are going to App.
The only granola thing about me are the nature bars in my book bag.
4. East Hall is haunted.
5. If your roommate dies, you automatically pass all of your classes.
I love you, Andrew, but my GPA is very important for my first year.
6. Everybody smokes pot
Of course the most obvious one out there. Appalachian is so much more then drugs and partying. I can't wait for the day that people stop assuming that I'm a pothead just because I go to ASU.
7. One first-year is sacrificed to the mountain gods every year.
"Me?" "A first- year?" "No, but I think I saw one of the little ones over by Belk."
8. Snowmen have been known to come alive and attack people.
This might be a bit of a stretch. Just know that I won't be building any snowmen because I enjoy my life.
9. People don't wear shoes so that they can be closer to the Earth.
I for one plan on wearing shoes fairly often, but hey, I don't judge.
10. If you are wearing shoes, then they're probably Chacos.
I mean I personally own a pair and I love them, but I'm sure App is more diverse than that. Right?.... Right?
11. The weather is completely unpredictable
I want to say this is a rumor mainly out of fear for my life.
