It's grind time, Owls.

Temple University's Top 4 On-Campus Study Spots
Emily Gigliotti

If you're a Temple student, you know the struggle of campus being crowded 24/7. It's quite difficult at times to find an open table in the SAC or library, not to mention finding a quiet study spot. Here are my top 4 study spots on campus, that never seem to fail me.

1. 7th Floor of Alter Hall

Business student or not, head to Alter Hall for a great study spot and some amazing views. The 7th floor of Alter Hall has floor to ceiling windows that overlook the city and campus. If there isn't a conference going on (which most days there are not), the center room is set with huge round tables where people set up for hours to study and get work done. On the outer parts of the floor, the hallways have convenient single person tables and couches where you can set up to study overlooking the city. This spot is perfect if you're looking to get away from the Temple population, and enjoy Philly views!

2. Saxbys in Alter/Speakman Hall

If you love coffee and good vibes, this is the place for you. I absolutely love the Saxby's between Alter and Speakman, as I spend 99.9% of my study time here. Good music, good people, good coffee. What more could you ask for out of a study spot?

3. 3rd and 4th Floor of Tuttleman

If you go to the 3rd or 4th floor of Tuttleman and go all the way to the end of the hallway, there's an area full of tables and computers available for studying. There's a ton of natural light and it is very quiet there. It's the perfect place if you like quiet study sessions.

4. Saxby's on Polet Walk

This spot is a little harder to find seating, but if you do it's a perfect spot to grind. Small and intimate.

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?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
