9 Reasons To Love Going To An All Women's College

Because the stereotype is ridiculously wrong.

9 Reasons To Love Going To An All Women's College

1. The People

Everyone is nice to each other, contrary to the stereotypical belief that girls are catty. Sure, everyone gets that way sometimes, but most of the time we are actually nice to each other.

2. Girl Power

It's a real thing. Specifically at Saint Mary's we have a pretty strong buddy system, and no Belle gets left behind, duh!

3. The Adventures

Not only does Saint Mary's have an amazing community, but we also have plenty of chances to get away from campus. Studying abroad, road trips, class trips, we have it all!

4. No Boys

"Boys go to Jupiter to get more "stupider", girls go to college to get more knowledge"

Sometimes you just need a break from masculinity.

5. Girls Nights

Long day? Girls night. Bad grade? Girls night. Have a million things due tomorrow? Girls night. It's the solution to everything, and with your friends around 24/7 it's just so hard to avoid it.

6. No Sexism

You can't feel inferior to men on an all women's college, therefore your professors can't treat you like you're stupid because of it either.

7. You Know Everyone

Most all women's colleges are relatively small, so you get to know your classmates pretty well. You also know the names of the people you pass on the way to class. Yay for friendship .

8. People Are Open

No more having to be confidential about having terrible cramps, why you're in a bad mood, or needing a tampon right away. We've all been there girl, we've got you.

9. No Such Thing As A Mrs. Degree


Everyone is here for an education, not a Mrs. Degree. There are no guys around anyway, at Saint Mary's they're all across the street!

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

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.
