Disney And Netflix: An Intelligent Agreement
CBS News

If you've logged on Facebook recently, you have probably noticed articles being shared about Disney movies coming to Netflix in September of 2016. Excitement has been bouncing from person to person and Disney movie quotes have been thrown around like a language in and of itself.

Janice Marinelli, President, Disney-ABC Domestic Television said, "'With this cutting-edge agreement, we are thrilled to take our highly valued relationship with Netflix to the next level by adding Disney's premier films to their programming lineup.'" From Disney Pixar to Marvel and beyond, this licensing agreement seems to be yet another step forward into how accessible and popular Disney is and will remain in the 21st century. This deal isn't actually new, though. In fact, it was signed made in 2012, but of course, the wait has been long and most of us forgot this was coming, if we ever knew at all.

However, this isn't just benefiting Disney. Netflix stock has been low, but has improved significantly as news of these changes has resurfaced. In my opinion, this will help the "demand" for Netflix grow, as more and more people see it as an easy option to watch the new Disney movies. The decrease in popularity of DVDs and the increase of demand for streaming is clear in this partnership.

According to CNN, "The partnership covers all movies made in 2016 and beyond." So while we may not have access to all Disney movies at our fingertips any time soon, we can enjoy the fact that each new Disney movie released will be able to be watched by us in the comfort of our own homes in just a few short months.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
