During my first year at The Ohio State University, I have noticed a couple different personality types. These are eleven basic types of college students.

1. The Bookworm

This person probably has a 4.0 and knows everything that happens in class and making their acquaintance could be very helpful around finals.

2. The Long Distance Relationship

This person spends an abundant amount of time one the phone with their significant other and not much time going out. To each their own, I suppose.

3. The Life of the Party

This person is always down for a night on the town and goes hard no matter what day of the week and is not afraid to drop a ton of money on alcohol.

4. The Health Freak

You can usually find them at the gym every day of the week or at the salad bar of the dining hall.

5. The Player

This person is typically on Tinder and has a new person to hookup with every night. Usually their goal when going out is to bring someone home rather than having a good time.

6. The Person that Spends Time with Their High School Friends

PLEASE BRANCH OUT I BEG OF YOU. This person refuses to make new friends and will only stay within their comfort zone.

7. The Person Obsessed with Politics

They have no problem sharing their opinion whether you want it or not. They will often try to sway you to agree with their opinion and get angry if you don't agree.

8. The High School Sweethearts that are Goals

They are the cutest couple you've ever seen because they've grown up together and manage to still make their relationship grow rather than break up. They might be one of the few couples that don't gross you out because they're more like best friends than a couple at this point.

9. The Person that Knows Literally Everyone

Somehow one person can know thousands of people and you will ever understand how they manage to meet so many people within such a short amount of time and they are usually the most outgoing person you know.

10. The Athlete

They are ALWAYS busy! Being a college athlete is a full time job along with a full schedule it is hard for them to have a lot of spare time but they get a lot of free stuff!

11. The Person who Thinks They're Better Than Everyone

Please stop. This person was probably 'cool' in their small town high school so they think that it translates to being 'cool' in college. However, they are in no way better than the thousands of people at their university.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
