A War Has Broken Out Between Miami University's Upperclassmen And Freshmen Due To COVID

President Crawford announced this week that Miami University would be welcoming freshmen and other students back to campus starting September 14th. One would think that this is a good thing, however, the upperclassmen are not too happy about it. An Instagram account called @miamiohchicks posted an Instagram story that asked their followers to give freshmen advice, but that's not exactly what came out of it.

Messages immediately started flowing in. One thing led to another, and eventually, war had completely broken out between the freshman and upperclassman. The upperclassman had started making comments about how the freshman needed to stay in dorms and not go out, party, or anything even remotely close to leaving the dorms.

They said that the seats at Brick are for the upperclassman only and that the freshman needed to stay out of uptown. The freshman then retaliated and started saying that the upperclassman had their turn and that they now need to let the freshman experience college. This made everything worse.

The upperclassman started bringing points such as how all the upperclassmen were the ones working the bars and they are the ones throwing the off-campus parties at college. The said that if the freshman didn't stay in their dorms or at the bare minimum keep out of Brick, the upperclassman would stop inviting or letting freshman come to off-campus parties and they would start getting strict and taking the underclassmen's fake ID's when they try to get into Brick or any other bar.

This, of course, caused the freshman to erupt. Some freshmen wrote in and said that there was a freshman group chat and it was going crazy. They said that they were the ones who were supposed to be partying right now and that COVID-19 basically wouldn't be on campus if the upperclassman weren't there. Other freshmen were wanting to completely get away and not even associate with the class of 2024. Who knows if this will all be resolved once Miami is back and all the students are moved in.

Below are just some of the submissions that were posted in this feed. To read all of the posts go to @miamiohchicks Instagram page and look at their story called Feud.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens once everyone is back on campus.

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.

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.
