Rutgers, probably the most notable college that comes to mind when thinking about universities in New Jersey, is spread out in three different regions: New Brunswick, Newark, and Camden. Each area is different from the other and has its respective pros and cons. With set transportation, modernized dorms, and countless facilities spanning the acres it occupies, Rutgers is without a doubt one of the most heavily funded schools in the state. Drawing thousands of applicants each year, many seek admittance into its renowned buildings for a chance to pave their own pathways to success. Standing as the largest institute of higher education in New Jersey, Rutgers can pose some questions to the curious passerby. Coupled with the various reputations concerning the school, it stands to ask in particular: just what happens behind Rutgers' closed doors?

1. Do students notoriously party as much as the public hears about?

2. Can classes really get as big as 500 students?

3. Just how many food chains occupy your grounds?

4. Does parking get really bad for the students?

5. Does your volleyball team really consist of mostly players from California?

6. Are there, or when will there be, at least one printer in each residence hall?

7. Is the bus typically late?

8. Does attendance really take at least half an hour for big lectures?

9. Does the professor even know half the class' name?

10. Are the dancing studios really reserved by the sports' teams?

11. Do buses on Cook Douglass really only run in one direction?

12. Is it true that the WiFi is really bad and shuts down at random?

13. Just how many students do you have?

14. Are recording studios only reserved for Mason Gross students?

15. Is the food quality the same for all dining halls? (If not, which one has the best food?)

16. Which dorm is the best dorm?

17. Is it true that Rutgers often gets crime alerts?

18. Do students really only appear during daylight when the temperature is 70 degrees or higher?

19. Are relationships considered long distance if one person is from College Ave and the other from Busch?

20. How strict are the RA's with quiet hours?

21. How many Rutgers t-shirts does each student own?

22. How difficult is it to master the bus system?

23. How often does Rutgers get hacked?

24. Do Rutgers students have an unsaid agreement of hating Penn State?

25. What are the chances of getting trampled while waiting on the shuttle to get to the football game?

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
