Needless to say- we all love our Bryant bubble! The beautiful scenery, being able to walk to any location on campus (in under 7 minutes), clubs and organizations that cater to all of your interests, and Tuesday night Rentes- I think we can all agree that we picked a great place to spend four years of our lives! But like any college campus, despite everything we love, there are definitely going to be a few things that are slightly less than perfect…
1. Crossing the Nile just to get to class.
When it rains, it pours! And at Bryant, when it rains, it floods. As if walking to your 8:00 AM didn’t suck enough already, trekking through puddles over four inches deep really puts the icing on the cake!
2. The infamous parking struggle.
When it comes to parking at Bryant you have one of two choices- drive around in circles for hours praying to the parking gods that the stars will align and someone will pull out of their strip spot, just in time for you to take it OR park by the football field and face (god forbid) a 7 minute walk back to your hall…
3. Waiting in the Salmo lunch line for nothing.
Because we all love waiting 30 minutes in a line that extends halfway through the roto, just to swipe into Salmo for lunch…is it really worth it?
4. Literally nothing.
If you didn’t reevaluate your life while standing in line, you definitely will the moment you step into Salmo and get a whiff of whatever’s for lunch…smells like mystery meat, with a side of week old vegetables (my personal favorite). Remind me why I waited 30 minutes for this...?
5. Group Projects.
We all know how rare it is to be placed on a team where everyone actually carries their weight. May the odds be ever in your favor…
6. Weather confused dorm thermostats
.
Sweltering hot in the summer and bone chillingly cold in the winter…we just can’t win!
7. That one person in the quiet section of the library…
We all know that one person who refuses to use a tissue in the quiet section of the library and proceeds to make us all miserable with their constant sniffling.
8. What wifi?
Because it wouldn't be Bryant wifi if it didn't crash the night before that huge research paper you were assigned weeks ago, but have yet to start, is due!
9. There's no hiding here.
With such a small campus you’ll be sure to run into just
about everyone you’re trying to avoid. That boy you awkwardly made out with at
the townhouses on Friday night? Yeah, you’ll definitely being seeing him tomorrow
morning at Salmo.
10. The infamous Sunday morning regret.
Oh Ronzio’s…how we hate to love you. Might as well add thousands of calories of mediocre pizza to our lists of regrets from Saturday night!
