We are closer to graduating, but they are pretty awesome.

Why Freshmen are the Coolest People on Campus
Millsaps College

At Millsaps College, our population of less than 1,000 students, is very close knit which means that every year in August, when the freshmen arrive, they are very easy to spot for many reasons. Most of all, they are a face you don’t recognize, a person you haven’t met yet. Though it is stereotypical in movies for freshmen to be lame and seniors to be awesome and "rule the school", at Millsaps, that is not the case. Freshmen are the coolest people on campus and here’s why:

1. They are new and shiny and pretty

2. They are so beautifully naïve

3. They remind you of how you were as a Freshman

4. You have new people to tell your stories

5. They surprise you with their different perspectives

6. They get lost, and it's adorable

7. You can always sit with them in the caf and it is no big deal

8. They are so optimistic about their classes

9. They haven’t died on the inside yet

10. They dress up for class

11. They ask good questions

12. They light up when you remember their name

13. It’s not awkward to wave at them from across the room

14. They don’t judge you because they don’t know you

15. They seamlessly become a part of your squad

16. You can always count on them to know if you have homework or not

17. You can show them all of your favorite places on campus

18. You are able to watch them mature over the first few days and weeks

19. You experience their first dumb mistakes

20. They make you kind of want to be a freshman again (but not really)

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.

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.
