The Wroxton Experience As Told By the Jersey Shore
google

Fairleigh Dickinson has a study abroad program where they send approximately 55 students to Wroxton, England for 3 and a half months of travel, rigorous academia, and full cultural immersion. However, placing a group of 19-21 year-olds, primarily based from New York and New Jersey in an Abbey, where every class, meal, study session, and hang out is together, it certainly leaves plenty of excitement to boil up. Who better to explain the Wroxton experience better than the Jersey Shore crew themselves?

Boarding the plane to England


Trying to figure out who the one non-FDU student is


Forming new friendships like...


When you win a VIP booth at Moo Moos


Friday night and YJ Cars are lined up in front of the Abbey


When they bump dinner up to 6:00pm but it's midnight and you're starving


Getting to Brighton and being too excited to see a body of water


Sitting in Garrity's lectures like...


Learning new drama at tea time


Taking a break from papers to get a pint at White Horse


Rolling up FDU sqaud deep to Pub Crawls


Travel Break


Posing on Instagram with your best buddie


Having limited supplies to make a Halloween costume


Knowing you have to be up at 8:30am for an art trip but deciding to drink anyway


When Baldwin calls someone out for not paying attention


Jumping into bed like you didn't take two naps earlier that day


Starting to miss American food like...


November hits and everyone starts coming for each other


Getting through homesickness


Procrastinating all 10 INTER papers and you're basically living in the library


Walking out of your last exam like...


Preparing yourself to go home knowing you may never see this beautiful place and incredible people again…


So shout out to Wroxton, the craziest, funnest, hardest, most rewarding and hands down best experience of my life.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
