I'm going to take you on a tour of the wonderful campus of Mississippi State University through a series of pictures. This tour is not all inclusive. It hits many of the top spots as well as some obscure spots you should still probably know.

First stop,

LEE HALL

Named after the first University president, Confederate General Stephen Lee. This is the crowning jewel on the main part of MSU campus.

Next stop,

THE DRILL FIELD

Opposite Lee Hall is Swalm Hall and in between them is the Drill Field. It is the main academic location on campus with many on the classroom building along its perimeter.

Next stop,

MITCHELL MEMORIAL LIBRARY

This is MSU's library, which is finishing up construction on its new expansion this semester. "Pardon Our Noise"

Next Stop,

COLVARD STUDENT UNION

The Colvard Student Union is one of the busiest locations on campus with a food court, classrooms, meeting rooms, HCDC, Student Affairs, and Greek Life.

Next Stop,

BELL ISLAND

This is the small strip of land between the Union and the Chapel. It houses the retired bell from the Chapel and thus the name.

Next stop,

CHAPEL OF MEMORIES

This is the bell tower and the chapel for the University. All of the brick are from the old dormitory, Old Main, which burned down in the late 40s, early 50s.

Next stop,

ALLEN HALL

This is another academic building that additionally houses the College of Education and the Dean of Student Affairs.

Next stop,

THE JUNCTION & DAVIS WADE STADIUM

This is the main tailgate area for weekend football games. HAIL STATE!

Last stop,

HUMPHREY COLISEUM

This is the home of the basketball teams for both Men's and Women's. It is located on the north side of campus.



Well I hope you have enjoyed your tour! And don't forget to share this for any of your friends that might not know what some of these locations are. Or you can share it so your relatives can see what a beautiful university you have chosen.

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.
