7 Of The Best Things About Butler University
Thulani Smith

If you go to Butler University, you know how great it is. If you don’t go to Butler University, you probably still know how great it is simply because a school like this deserves to be bragged about. Sure, it floods sometimes, and may not have AC everywhere, but it’s our flaws that give us character.

However the true charm of a college comes from the things that make a real impact on the students that go there. Here are some things that make Butler such a great place:

1. Starbucks

Coffee makes the world go round. But having a Starbucks in the middle of campus is both a blessing and a curse. The line gets long and the tables fill up fast, but once you get your hands on your order, all your problems seem to melt away.

2. The campus

Being a small campus is nice because you don’t have to worry too much when you wake up 10 minutes before your class starts since everything is pretty much 5 minutes away. There is no question that Butler's campus is beautiful in every kind of weather. The number of students that flood the mall when it’s warm makes campus look like every college brochure ever.

3. The people

Every person at Butler is nicer than the next. Door holding is common and there’s no fear when it comes to leaving your stuff in the library while you go to Starbucks. There are people that I have met once, very briefly, and the next time I see them they’ll say hi and that just means so much to people.

4. The dining services twitter account

The dining services twitter is not the only one that dishes out high levels of sass. Butler’s official Twitter can be pretty sassy too. But it’s highly suggested that you don’t mess with dining services during March Madness. Things get heated and salty, much like their food.

5. Nugget night

A Thursday night staple in Atherton that may just beat karaoke night. Butler dining services strikes again, this time, giving the students what they want to satisfy their hunger instead of their need for rivalry.

6. Basketball Games

Honestly if you don't go to at least one basketball game, are you even a Butler Bulldog? Butler becomes your family the second you step on campus, but nothing brings fellow Bulldogs together more than sitting in Hinkle Fieldhouse watching the best basketball team in the state of Indiana.

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.

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.
