There are certain things that all Fairfield freshmen say throughout their first year that are unique to them ...
1. How many thrive events do we need?
If you have to ask, probably three.
2. I have an "in" tonight.
Odds are, you don’t.
3. Where’s the health center? Dolan?
Not the business school!
4. Why are the Bannow doors so heavy?
It's your daily exercise if you don't go to the RecPlex.
5. Ugh, the Einstein's line is so long.
I know. Can’t some of these people go to the Tully?
6. NO! The religion class I wanted is full.
Take philosophy instead.
7. Oh, you live in Campion?
Yikes, my condolences.
8. Why does Jogues have the nicest showers?
Because the rooms are shaped like Tetris pieces!
9. Who ordered the Uber?
Not having a car on campus isn’t really that bad.
10. I'm locked out.
Don’t you hate bringing your key to the bathroom?
11. Where's the closest printing station?
The closest one that’s working? It’s a toss-up.
12. NO! The philosophy class I wanted is also full.
Art History seems like a great option.
13. Can I take this person’s clothes out of the washing machine yet?
If a few minutes have passed, go for it. It's every man for himself.
14. I love my FYE leader.
We go by “NSLs” usually.
15. Where’s the Mezz?
No, no, no. The library is a great place to study.
16. Colony or Plan B? What time should we get on the StagBus?
Hmm Flipside. Also, always the 6 p.m. shuttle.
17. I haven’t ridden the Stag yet!
Hurry, do it now! No one’s watching. Oh, wait, someone’s coming; so awkward.
18. I can’t figure out how to open my mailbox.
Half the struggle is reaching it.
19. Is the final cumulative?
If it is, I’ll catch you in the library.
