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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
