We've all been there: running a little late, needing coffee, not having enough time to catch the FAB, asking ourselves if she would risk getting a parking ticket and drive to class, hungry, and tired.

We've all been late to class. Or at least almost late to class.

Brady Smith, a Peer Mentor and the President of Phi Sigma Pi here at Longwood University, understands the struggle of getting to class on time.

According to Smith, these are the top 12 reasons Longwood University students are usually walking through classroom doors a little bit late:

1. The FAB is never on time.

2. The elevators stop at every floor.

3. The elevators are broken.

4. A small campus doesn't actually mean you can get to class in FIVE minutes.

5. The line for Greens To Go was too damn long.

6. Parking is just...horrible.

7. Slow. Walkers.

8. There were dogs at Ruffner Fountain.

9. You had to stop and talk to a friend.

10. You got stuck behind someone who stopped in the middle of the hallway to talk to a friend.

11. Waiting until the last possible second to see if class was canceled. *check clock at 10:59*

12. Stopping by Java City to get coffee with two minutes to spare.

Yep, that sounds about right, Brady!
