1. Toomer's Corner

THE Auburn tradition. At least once in every student's life, a trip to Toomer's Drugs is taken where their iconic lemonade will be waiting for them. This delicious, refreshing, and glorious lemonade will make a tiger out of you for sure!

2. Jordan-Hare Stadium

Football fan or not, a game day spent in Jordan-Hare is a magical one. With our overflowing traditions and spirit, you can't help but feel excited and ready for a day of tailgating, cheering on your team, and fun with friends.

3. Skybar

Also a part of every student's life is a trip to Skybar. You may not be a party owl, but a night at "sky" is certainly legendary. Whether it's drink specials on Wednesday, karaoke, your usual Friday nights, or a game day, Skybar is worth the trip.

4. Louise Kreher Forest Ecology Preserve

You don't have to be an, "outside person," to enjoy this preserve. The beautiful trails and various spaces make for a relaxing, or even adventurous, afternoon with friends. One thing that is unique to Auburn University is the rolling green spaces that make our city beautiful and different than most other college towns. Rather than a few hours shopping downtown, spend some time walking through the preserve for a stress-relieving stroll. Go ahead, you've earned it.

5. Julie Colins Museum

This is my personal favorite. The museum is a unique and beautiful way to spend an afternoon in the wonderful city of Auburn, AL. The art varies from element, time, and subject, as you walk through the crisp white walls of the building. Enrich yourself and take a stroll on through, you won't regret it.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
