50 Things I Miss About The Best Place On Villanova's Campus: The Quad
Kaitlyn Stivers

Everyone knows that The Quad is the best place on Villanova's campus. In fact, it's an irrefutable statement. Unfortunately, time in our favorite place was cut short. Although we had to leave early, we can't discount the amazing times we did have. What better way to honor the many 'quad bools' than a reflection on some of my favorite memories in my favorite place. So, without further ado, I am honored to present a comprehensive list documenting some of my favorite memories, and what makes The Quad so special.

1. Quad bools. Duh. 

2. Sully 007!!

3. Waking up to the sweet sound of an aggressive lawn mower....in December. 

4. Waking up to the garbage truck at ungodly hours of the morning 

5. The Schmourts

6. Taco Tuesday in the Pit

7. Having my shower caddy punted down the ground floor hallway 

8. Living with my best friend

9. Falling down the Bartley stairs. Yup.

19. Themed nights 

20. Wells Fargo tailgates

21. Late night (mozz sticks and mac & cheese to be precise) 

22. Bachelor Mondays 

23. Chairs thrown down the stairs at 3 a.m.

24. The sin-a-muffins from Holy Grounds 

25. Talking to people in class and not through a screen

36. Movie nights 

37. Wearing everyone's clothes but my own

38. Xolos, obviously!

39. My roommate's Crocs 

40. Being scared to get anything from under my bed

41. Zilly Fries 

42. Late night Manilla's 

43. Sunsets

44. Pedialyte Pops (If you haven't already tried them, these are a staple!!) 

45. Going to chapter with my sisters <3

46. "Be safe and have fun!!....But... mostly have fun!!" 

47. Laughing so hard it's a better workout than Chloe Ting 

48. Running across the intersection with 1 second left...yes, I'm THAT girl 

49. Singing my favorite songs, and no one caring about my brutal pitch 

50. Most of all...I miss being in my favorite place, making friends and making memories, surrounded by the best people. 

Needless to say, bury me in the quad.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
