I think there's a lot of us with these same questions.

45 Questions I Have for Washington & Jefferson College
RAMWEB

1. Is there any way you can schedule more senior overnights because the school serves really good food when there are potential students on campus?

2. Speaking of food, what happened to the seasoned waffle fries at G&T's?

3. Or, what happened to seasonings in general--even just some salt and pepper?

4. And when you bring the seasoned waffle fries back, can we have more than four?

5. Can we have more taco days at the student bar?

6. Can there be a late night, campus-sponsored pizza delivery service for a meal swipe so that I can stop wasting my money off-campus?

7. Can we get fresher fruit?

8. Or, how about some coffee at the barista that isn't just flavored water?

9. How about the hot chocolate?

10. Is there a more efficient way to cart clean dishes around than on the tiles in the dining hall?

11. Same with the ice cooler for the barista?

12. Why do our meal swipes get us so little at the barista, but we can eat as much as we want in the Commons?

13. Why do we have to sacrifice our first born to be able to afford a bag of chips at the barista?

14. I understand that the Wi-Fi problem is more complex, but why can I never connect to the Wi-Fi when I need to?

15. Why does the air conditioning never work in the academic buildings in the hot months and the heat never works in the cold?

16. Why is Olin arguably the most unappealing building to look at despite it being the building for the arts?

17. Why are there so many wind tunnels on campus?

18. Why does it seem like I am always walking uphill?

19. Speaking of walking around campus, why is the cobblestone loose?

20. Why is Chestnut Street spoken about but not shown on campus tours?

21. Isn't a thriving Greek community a potential lure for some prospective students?

22. When will the new addition to the gymnasium be finished?

23. How about the renovation on the library?

24. Will graduating seniors even be able to use it to its fullest potential before they leave?

25. Why are we permitted to use certain buildings as study spaces but most rooms suited for such studying are locked by a certain time?

26. Why do students feel compelled to use available study spaces as areas to hang out and carry on with friends?

27. Seriously, how many energy drinks do they consume?

28. Don't they know that energy drinks have adverse effects on their health?

29. How loud can we turn up our music to try to tune out these people before our hearing becomes permanently damaged?

30. Will our professors understand if we can no longer hear because of the aforementioned issue?

31. Why is our Health Services office not open 24/7?

32. Are we only supposed to get sick Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 5:00pm?

33. What about the parking situation?

34. Can we stop ticketing upperclassmen for parking illegally and instead focus on the freshmen stealing upperclassmen spots, causing us to have to park illegally?

35. Can we get another parking lot to supplement the spots taken away for the new tennis courts?

36. Why does it sound like Old Main is talking to us when the heat gets turned on?

37. Why are the stairs in Old Main so much harder to climb than the stairs literally anywhere else on campus?

38. Are they punishment for our sins?

39. Why do the printers at the Tech Center never work?

40. And, while we're at it, why do we have to pay for color printing?

41. Like, don't we pay enough with our $56,000+ annual bill (and climbing)?

42. Speaking of money, why wasn't some of the donated money appropriated to fixing the abandoned buildings on campus?

43. Don't Lazear and Thistle deserve some love and affection?

44. Wouldn't it be cool to not have to have an English class in Swanson Science Center?

45. Or, should we rename it to Swanson Science & English Center?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
