Cookout: an epidemic that had taken over most college towns. And no it's not a get together with your friends. It's a saving grace fast food company. Here are 8 reasons cookout is ultimately superior.

1. $5 cookout traysĀ 

$5 for 3 entrees? Donā€™t mind if I do.

2. MilkshakesĀ 

With over 20 different milk shakes to choose from, you can basically try a new one each week and still have options.

3. CheesecakeĀ 

Because sometimes cheesecake is just what an exhausted college student needs.

4. Sweet tea

Cookout has the best sweet tea of all time. Donā€™t @ me.

5. Extended hoursĀ 

Cookout stays open much later than most fast food chains, making it the perfect late night snack.

6. CheerwineĀ 

Iā€™m not sure about the north, but in the south cookout is the only place to find this soft drink.

7. Cajun friesĀ 

Nothing beats a good seasoned fry.

8. QuesadillasĀ 

Because what other fast food company gives you chicken quesadillas?

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichƩs, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And donā€™t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Donā€™t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and youā€™re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. Youā€™re running late because youā€™ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterdayā€™s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
