There's plenty of things to do at Colby-Sawyer for the fall semester but these are the 26 things that will probably happen to all of us.

1. Attend Mountain Day

2. Complain about having to walk to K Lot

3. Prepare for move in day to be the hottest day of the year with no fans or AC

4. Wait all week for Saturday omelets

5. Tell yourself you can have as many ice cream cones as you want

6. Sprint from Ivey to get Friday cheese and crackers in the dining hall

7. Spend all your dining dollars for the Lodge in the first two weeks

8. Show up to the Alumni weekend dance at 11 instead of 11:30 and feel awkward

9. Take a picture of your new dorm room and post it on Instagram

10. See if you can sneak out of the dining hall with a cup without getting yelled at

11. Ask if they can heat up your cookie at the lodge (there’s free milk in the fridge too. You’re welcome)

12. Order onion petals from the lodge just to stock up on pub sauce

13. Attend the activities fair just for the free candy the clubs give out

14. Try and actually understand Burpee’s layout

15. Walk to dunks 2 times in one day (everyday)

16. Convince yourself you’re not going to skip class at all this semester

17. Stand in the cold on a Friday waiting for your friend to open their dorm for you

18. Freak out about losing your ID then realize it’s in your back pocket

19. Attend Late Night every single Tuesday and Thursday and get mad when they don’t have chicken fries

20. Finally get a loft in the library after waiting forever

21. Make your new best friends in the Colgate Living Room at 2 AM

22. Remember that just because you’re a NARP doesn’t mean you’re not cool

23. Walk into the Dining Hall everyday looking for nugs

24. Get so lazy you consider driving from one side of campus to the other

25. Plan on going home for the weekend but change your mind because the FOMO sets in hard

26. Have so much fun you don’t want to leave for winter break

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.
