10 College Problems As Explained By Dwight Schrute

Folklore says that the years you spend in college will be the best of your life, and there is absolutely no denying that college can be a pinnacle point on our paths. BUT with all the good, there's bound to be a little ugly here and there. Here are 10 problems we face as college students eloquently explained by Dwight K. Schrute.


1. When you're trying to study at the library, but the table behind you is being obnoxiously loud.

These dirty looks are warranted.

2. When the WiFi goes out on campus.

'nuff said.

3. When there are WAY too many people in your BADD duty car.

"Oh, you already have two people sitting on your lap? Okay, let's squeeze in another girl to lay across everyone." THIS IS NOT A CLOWN CAR, PEOPLE.

4. That moment when you fail your first test in college.

Beware: This can often lead to a mental breakdown followed by a slight desire to drop out of school altogether. Deep breaths.

5. When your roommates think it's funny to pull pranks on you.


You know what's sweeter than jello? Revenge...

6. When you're trying to go out and have a good time with you're friends, but everywhere you go is beyond crowded.

Because nothing feels better than being stepped on and bumped into at any local establishment.

7. When you order food but the delivery guy takes longer than expected.

No, it's cool, dude. Take your time. My stomach is making noises that resemble the mating call of a humpback whale, but take your time.

8. When you think you look super cool while dancing but you look like this...

You just keep doing you, though.

9. When you pull an all-nighter and NEED caffeine.

You don't care where it's from or how you get it. All you know is that you can not and will not function without some sort of caffeine pumping through your bloodstream.

10. When you see someone cute at the library, but you're too awkward to say hello.

My sincerest apologies for my lack of social skills.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

You're pretty much feeling yourself. New haircut, clothes, shoes, everything. New year, new you, right? You're ready for this semester to kick off.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
