16 Must-See Movies For The Summer

Summer's almost here! That means more time to spend with family, more time to work, and maybe time to see a few movies. A lot of great films are set to be released this summer, and if you're a movie-buff like I am, then you're going to love what's in store!

1. Captain America: Civil War - May 6

For all you Marvel-lovers out there, here's another Captain America film the whole family will enjoy.

2. Neighbors 2 - May 13

In the sequel to Neighbors (which was released last year) Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne are back at it again looking for a new house to live in (one that isn't neighboring a fraternity house). However, when they learn that the house they move into is next to a sorority house, they call in for reinforcements (Zac Efron, Dave Franco and the rest of their fraternity).

3. The Nice Guys - May 20

Based in the late 1970's, a private investigator and a hired enforcer investigate the disappearance of a girl and the death of a porn star.

4. X-Men: Apocolypse - May 27

5. Me Before You - June 3

Based on one of Nicholas Sparks' tear-jerking books, this is a great date night or chick flick. Just watching the trailer will give you the feels.

6. Central Intelligence - June 17

Kevin Hart and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are back at it again in this hilarious comedy where two best friends reunite and work on a top-secret case.

7. Finding Dory - June 17

If you haven't seen Finding Nemo, then you definitely need to see it before Finding Dory comes out in theaters. With the voice of Ellen DeGeneres as Dory, Nemo and Marlan get to go on a journey to find their friend.

8. Independence Day 2 - June 24

9. The B.F.G. - July 1

Based off the book by Roald Dahl, The B.F.G. (Big Friendly Giant) is a wonderful story of an unlikely friendship between a young girl and a giant.

10. The Purge 3 - July 1

11. Tarzan - July 1

12. Mike & Dave Need Wedding Dates - July 8

Two party-loving brothers (Zac Efron and Adam Devine) put out an ad online seeking dates for their sister's wedding. Two wild friends (Anna Kendrick and Aubrey Plaza) answer the ad and are in for a real treat.

13. Star Trek 3/Star Trek 13 - July 8

Hey all you Trekkies out there, you're in for a treat! A sequel to the beloved series Star Trek starring Leonard Nimoy is set to release in theaters this July. Who's excited?

14. Ghostbusters - July 22

This comedy is a parody on the original Ghostbusters film, female edition. With SNL-alum Dan Aykroyd and hilarious actresses: Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, Kate McKinnon and Kristin Wiig, this is a great movie to see with your girl friends, sisters, moms, and anyone in for a good laugh!

15. Suicide Squad - August 5

This action-packed film focuses on the villains we all know and love being asked by the government to complete a top-secret mission. Starring Will Smith, Jared Leto, Margot Robbie, and Cara Delevigne, this movie is great for comic and suspense lovers.

16. Sausage Party - August 12

If you haven't seen the trailer for this movie, I suggest you watch it right now. Sausage Party is an adult comedy with voices of Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, James Franco, Kristin Wiig and many others. This film got a lot of reaction, just from seeing the trailer! If you've seen it I'm sure you know why.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
