The Pledge Class Starting Lineup

The PC Moms- Constantly taking care of everyone. Reminding one person that they have an exam tomorrow and simultaneously stopping someone else from having another drink. She never leaves the house without her purse, and yes she can hold your phone for you. Skills: holding hair back, picking up shackers.


The PC Cool Aunts: Not quite as responsible as the Mom, but still encouraging fun and borderline bad behavior. While she has no problem dragging your butt home after you've had too much fun, she might have been the reason for it too. Skills: ordering cheesy bread, convincing you to flirt with your crush.

The PC Nerd: Basically living in the library, you might not see them around much. As much as they would like to be out on a Tuesday, they know where their priorities lie. However, when the academic schedule allows, they will go out, and it will be considered a holiday for the rest of your pledge class. Skills: resisting FOMO, tutoring you in math.

The PC Socialite: The girl who has both a million friends all over campus, Greek and non-Greek. If you walk to class with her, you will be stopped 50 times before you get halfway. She knows everyone and everyone loves her. Skills: finding you a formal date.

The PC Party Girl: She is always down to go out. Even if she went out last night and she has an exam tomorrow. You wonder if she even has classes. If you feel that you are the only one going out, you can probably convince her to go with you. Skills: lending you an outfit for the night, sleeping in.

The PC Weirdo: Probably should not be allowed to talk to PNMs during recruitment. May or may not have received a ride home from a stranger on a motorcycle. Loved and feared by all members of your house. Skills: saying and doing weird things, wearing leather when the sun is still up.


There may be a little bit of all of these in all of us, but these descriptions probably made you think of someone specific. All of these types of people help make our pledge classes a family. Keep being you. Creds to Erika Cone for suggesting this topic.

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.
