7 Reasons Why Cortland is the Best SUNY
Bro Bible

In my opinion, Cortland is the best SUNY there is and I would say it's pretty hard to argue otherwise. Students here know how do college right and that's what makes it so awesome. Not to mention all the delicious Hilltop food we all crave everyday. CState has so much to offer to its students and we don't ever want to leave this magical place!

1) Cortaca: First and most importantly, let's talk about Cortaca; the football game of the year versus Ithaca College. This game is probably the most anticipated event of the school year, and people go ridiculously crazy for it. Cortaca is iconic and definitely put Cortland on the map.

2) Hilltop: Hilltop is something that every Cortland student craves 24/7 without a doubt. Hilltop serves the best food on campus and everyone is in a romantic relationship with their chicken tender wraps. It's just a darn shame they aren't open past 3 or on weekends because what would be better after a night out than that taco bar??

3) Let's Get Physical: Cortland is full of sports and fitness-related majors, so why wouldn't we have an amazing gym on campus?! Our brand new two story facilities include numerous workout rooms for crossfit and exercise classes, a pool with a hot tub, indoor track, indoor golf simulator, spin rooms, rock wall, and even somewhere to get massages. I don't know how it could get any better!

4) NANCY: The best part of my day is when I head over to Bistro and see Nancy's big smile. Even when you're having a terrible day, hearing her say "Good job hunny" will make it a little bit better.

5) Bistro Cookies: Since we're on the subject of Bistro, let me just bring up those Bistro cookies. These cookies are the warmest, freshest, most gooey cookies on the face of the Earth and I sneak about 7 of them out every time I go.


6) Downtown: How could you talk about how great Cortland is without even mentioning downtown?! Downtown is the place to be every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Monday, and Wednesday. That might sound a tad excessive, but there is something fun to do literally every night downtown!

7) Calio's: Calio's is the holy grail after a night out. With so many different calzones to choose from, you're bound to find one you absolutely love.

I find it very hard to believe that any other SUNY school could top Cortland. Just come take a visit and see for yourself.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
