So you go to SUNY Cortland? SUNY Long Island, SUNY SportLand, CandyLand; however you refer to it, you know the ins and outs by now. From dorm life, to dinning halls and night life...here are 30 things that are inevitable about your college experience when you go to Cortland.
1. You know where to get .25 cent taco's every Monday.
That's four tacos for $1. As broke college kids, can that be any more melodic to our ears?
2. Your dark horse tee is your go-to shirt to throw on for class, letting everyone know that, yes, you did survive and actually finish a T-shirt.
"We live for the night we won't remember, with the people we won't forget."
3. After a T-shirt, you feel like you got hit by a truck the next morning.
