How Urban Dictionary Defines Universities in Michigan
University of Michigan

It is a well-known fact that Michigan is home to some of the most competitive college students around. We are one of the few states in which something as simple as a decision of which college to attend can tear families apart. Ohio State is rarely even spoken of here and you best believe that attending that [ahem, horrible] university will most likely ruin your relationship with every Michigander alive. Michigan does hold some of the world's most highly ranked universities, but let's just see what our completely factual and totally correct source, Urban Dictionary, has to say about them.

University of Michigan

Also noted: "A school where most of the students are smart enough to care about something beyond sports."


Michigan State University

U of M's little brother?


Michigan Technological University

Honorable mention to definition 2, "Where it's hard to get good grades, but even harder to get a girlfriend."


Wayne State University

There are no concrete definitions of Wayne State University except for this.


Western Michigan University


Grand Valley State University

The second definition quotes, "Known for their Division II sports programs and watering their lawns WAY too much."


Central Michigan University

Fire up, Chips.


Eastern Michigan University


Oakland University


Northern Michigan University

"Really Really Really Effing Cold."

Ferris State University



Saginaw Valley State University


And, just for kicks and giggles: Ohio State University.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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:

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.
