To My Best Friends' New Best Friends

I hope you love them as much as I do.

To My Best Friends' New Best Friends
Juliana Mitchell

Dear college friends who are now friends with my hometown best friends,

Because I’m hundreds of miles away from my best friends, I can’t always be there for them. So while my friends are at their home away from home, you will be my replacement. First, I feel that I need to tell you about the kind of people they truly are. They are by far the greatest people you will meet in your lifetime, so you should feel lucky to be friends with them. They will make you laugh to the point of crying and cheer you up when you’re feeling down. Throughout all of the bad haircuts, terrible outfit ideas, and just poor life choices in general, they will show no judgement. When you are at your absolute rock bottom, they will be there to pick you up off your feet. No matter what you do to deserve it, they will never be angry with you. They will truly listen to all of your problems and somehow make everything better without trying. Enjoy every moment with them and cherish their friendship, because in a few years you’ll have hundreds of memories and heartfelt stories to look back on.

I hope you go on as many adventures as we did(and not get in trouble by security). I hope you have as many inside jokes and make as many memories with them as I got to. Car jam sessions are a complete must, so be prepared to do lots of those and all-nighters are the absolute best. Trust me, you learn more about them when you’re sleep-deprived at 5 a.m. than months of being friends with them.

Get ready to hear a lot of "Friends" quotes. If you aren’t one already, become a Shonda Rhimes fan, because that’s what we talk about 90% of the time. Also, make sure you go to $5 movie Tuesdays every week, that’s a tradition. Even if there are no good movies out, pick out the trashiest one. You’ll still be quoting it a year later. Always be on your toes. Never be afraid to step outside your comfort zone, because you never know what will happen next with those two. Most importantly, I hope you love them as much as I do. They have changed my life for the absolute better and I hope they do the same for you.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
