After 3 years in Poughkeepsie, there are certain things you learn and become accustomed to as a Marist student. Whether it is constantly seen on everyone’s Snapchat stories or Instagram feeds, these 26 things help make up life as a Marist Student.
Abroad
Because with over 50% of the student body studying abroad at one point, you either have severe withdrawals right or know how empty campus feels when everyone goes abroad the same semester.
Beck Parking Lot
Capping
Because anyone currently crying in the library or investment center is most likely capping this semester.
Dyson Center
Because it is one of the oldest academic buildings on campus and the only place you can find business students pitching tents trying to get overrides.
Eveready Diner
Because Eveready > Palace
Fake IDs
Graduation
Because graduation means senior week.
Hudson River
Because When the weather is nice and students jump into cross it off their bucket list. (I jumped in the night before Halloween, when it was practically frozen, because the Red Sox won the World Series.)
Irish Pub (Mahoney’s)
Because it's that "senior" bar you can't wait to go to your first few years at Marist.
John Gildard (never forget)
Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight. #seesomethingsaysomething
K&D Deli
Because sometimes Campus Deli is closed.
Lola’s
Because sometimes you need real food and not the dining hall.

"Hootie Hoo! Hootie Hoo!"
Rossi’s
Because sometimes you need real food and not the dining hall.
Sunsets
Because basic.
Thrifty Cash
Because how else can you get your basic Starbucks every day?
Underpass
Because "It's an underpass, not a tunnel." "No, we do not make your kids walk across Route 9 every day."
Vanderbilt Mansion
Because if you don't take your parents here when they visit do you actually go to Marist? (I have never been here)
Walking Bridge
Because sometimes we like to be fit and walk across the bridge but really just want a cool picture.
Xenodochial (look it up)
Because we have all made friends in the back of a cab coming home one night.
Yellen
