3 Signs You Go To IWU
Mapio

If you’re like me, you probably spend a good chunk of your day wondering, “Do I go to Illinois Wesleyan University?” Well after some deep thinking and a 30 day intensive saga-food-only diet, I’ve figured out 3 definitive ways to know if you go to IWU.

1.You are capable of recognizing yourself in an image.

This is pretty much the equivalent of dressing as Terrance the Titan to the local sporting events. I can say with relative certainty that nearly every IWU student is capable of recognizing themselves in an image. In fact, just today I was sitting in the chimney of Shirk talking with some fellow chimney-sitters about how stellar it is that we can all recognize ourselves in an image.

2.Somewhere out there, there is an IWU ID with your image on it.

This is a tough one, and that’s exactly why IWU is such a tour de force academically. Just like all bears love honey, and all penguins wear red bow ties, pretty much every IWU student has an IWU ID doppelgänger out there somewhere. Who knows, he or she might even be sitting next to you at saga!


3.You attend classes at Illinois Wesleyan University.

This is what separates the designer Coach® bags from the free giveaways you get for giving your email to an insurance company. I suppose there is a remote possibility that a non-IWU student could have an ID doppelgänger, and theoretically (I can’t stress this enough – this is purely theoretical) they may be able to recognize themselves in an image. BUT if they don’t attend classes at IWU, there is literally no way they could be an IWU student. Like really, no way. This is the number one tell tale sign: if you attend classes at IWU, you most likely go to IWU.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
