10 Reasons Why GLS Majors Need Their Own Clothing Line At The NYU Bookstore
Graduation

1. We represent NYU from around the world

Since GLS students have the option to study abroad freshman and junior year, there are plenty of opportunities to show off our NYU pride while we study and explore some of the most beautiful cities in the world. If GLS had its own merchandise, I would wear my t-shirts/sweatshirts/socks everywhere.

2. We'd advertise for GLS

GLS is a global major, inviting students from around the world to apply to its program at NYU. When they go to their respective homes around the globe, these students need something to wear (especially when they're bragging about their various GLS expeditions).

3. We work with some of the most influential people in the world

The White House, the FBI, CNN, The New Yorker-- the internship opportunities are endless. GLS is one of those majors that wows people with its adaptivity and relevance in today's society. And who knows? Maybe the next time one of our classmates is featured on Chuck Shumer's Facebook page, they'll be a GLS student wearing one of the NYU Bookstore's very own GLS t-shirt.

4. Almost 100% of GLS graduates were employed or enrolled in a graduate program within six months of graduation since the major was created

The students in GLS have been highly successful in their post-NYU pursuits-- shouldn't we get these high-achievers some GLS-alum swag before we lose them to the ever-present LS clothing line?

5. We are a 4-year major

Tisch Film and TV, Tisch Drama, etc.-- majors that have their own NYU clothing line at the bookstore. And yet, GLS majors get told that LS items are for them.

"But isn't GLS the same as LS?"

No. It is not.

6. There are around 400 of us studying at NYU, which means...

There are a lot of us studying at NYU's New York campus and the plethora of study-away sites we have to choose from for our required junior year abroad.

7. ... the NYU Bookstore would make a ton of money off us

I would buy a t-shirt, a sweatshirt, sweatpants, socks, and a tote bag for every single one of my family members.

8. We study everything...

9. ... and deserve a reward

We have to write a 40-60 page thesis our senior year?!?!? Wha??? I bet I would feel better if I was wrapped in a GLS blanket to keep me warm.

10. Bottom line: We love NYU and want to show off our pride

We go to NYU, too, and are part of one of the most fun majors our school offers. It's about time we get to share with the world!

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.

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.
