20 Things To Accomplish Before You Graduate Ramapo College
Emma Thor

College is the best four years of your life. Cherish those moments. I am going into my senior year of college. I don't want to leave. Here is a bucket lIst that every future roadrunner should accomplish:

1. Take a hike to Ramapo Reservation

It is right across the street from the college. The trails range from moderate to strenuous. Great to de-stress from school and a photography dream location.

2. Nicky's Pizza

At almost every Ramapo event, there is always Nicky's Pizza. This pizza place is located in Suffern, NY. If there isn't pizza, there is their penne vodka, garlic knots and salads.

3. Take a picture with the school mascot.

Every student has to take a picture with the mascot.

4. Broadway show trip

The school sells discounted Broadway shows at reasonable prices. You can bring family members, too. You can see a show for $40 when in reality the tickets cost $200.

5. Do a service trip with the CCEC ( Civic Community Engagement Center).

Service trips range from helping out at daycare center House on the Hill, serving food at Eva's Kitchen, and tutoring kids at Teaneck Tutoring.

6. Late Night Dining

Dining services has a special time at night where from 10 to 1am there are chicken patties, fries, and burgers served. Whether you are craving junk food or need a break from studying, late night's got you covered.

7. President Mercer Selfie

It is a major goal to get a selfie with the college president. Few have taken a selfie with him at graduation.

8. Popcorn from Jlees.

The popcorn is free. Jlees is the commuter lounge that has pool tables and video games. Jlees is known for their free popcorn. Nice to grab some popcorn between classes.

9. CPB events

Coffee house, painting, stuff a plush, superbowl screening.

10. Stateline Diner

A 24 hour diner and all day breakfast.

11. Brother Bruno Pizza Bagels: Desert Pizza

Instagram worthy.

12. Sunset picture from ASB (Ainsfield School of Business)

13. Demarest Farms

A popular apple picking and pumpkin picking farm.

14. Arch Picture

Whether it is in the fall, winter, or spring, taking a photo of the arch is key.

15. Snapchat a picture of a ramahog or deer.

16. Study outside in the Pine, Laurel, and Linden quad.

Once it's nice weather, every college student is out playing frisbee, blasting music, barbecuing.

17. Charlotte selfie

Every Ramapo student can attest to their encounters with Charlotte. She is the queen of the dining hall.

18. Take the shuttle to Interstate shopping center and the mall.

Transportation is free. Interstate shopping center is home to Shop Rite, Michaels, Dunkin Donuts, Chiptole, and more.

19. Take two credit courses.

Like scuba diving or a yoga class.

20. Take control of free shirts.

Many events will have free t-shirts. It becomes half of your wardrobe as a college student.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. 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.
