Being A SHU Student As Told By GIFs

Warning: The following GIFs represent scenarios that can only be understood by students of Sacred Heart University.

Our campus is so laughably small that you’re bound to have awkward run-ins.


Being that SHU is roughly composed of a mere 8,000 students, running into someone you really could go without seeing is absolutely inevitable. And don't you dare think you can step foot in the Mahog without seeing at least one athlete you've hooked up with.

Finding out you actually go to school in Bridgeport — not Fairfield.

Yes, there is a difference.

Parking is basically impossible.

No parking spots? Welp, looks like class isn't happening for me today.

Adjusting to 63’s "food."

Note the quotes around "food."

Outtakes restocking the Ben & Jerry's department is the highlight of the week.

The low point of the week? When the only sad flavors left to choose from are Cherry Garcia and Pistachio. Yuck.

Choosing classes is the equivalent of The Hunger Games

Hey, SHU, I have an idea! How about we accept fewer students and open more classes? No? OK, cool.

Feeling like you’re risking your life on the SHUttle.

@SHUttleDriver You should totally hit another pothole.

“BlackBoard is down between the hours of … ”

No, it's fine. I didn't have any homework or anything.

Being bombarded in the hallway to support a fundraiser.

As much as I love a good jewelry sale, I think I'm gonna have to pass.

Your phone is constantly blown up with e-mails.

Thank you for the 18 e-mails about the same Human Journey Colloquium. I really appreciate it.

Your weekends depend on WeLive Entertain’s Instagram.

No matter the night, we all want to know what "the move" is. Is it going to be a GSTAR night or an 18+ night?

The library will never have enough outlets.

Good ol' Ryan Matura, forever providing us with a place to study. But, let's be real, there is nothing more heartbreaking than the number of outlets in the lib. The struggle is so real.

You're a proud SHU student, and you wouldn't have it any other way

We all could have chosen different universities to spend these few best years of our lives, but we all found SHU to be our home away from home, and we wouldn't trade being a SHU student for the world.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
