10 Things You Feel As A Member Of Your Sorority’s T-Shirt Swap Facebook Page
Aimee Padley

Let's be real, one of the most exciting things when joining a sorority is the number of t-shirts you get out of it. I mean, from shirts with your letters on it to shirts for Recruitment and Bid Day, the shirts truly pile up. And your sorority's t-shirt swap Facebook page certainly does not help prevent that number from growing. If you've found your sorority's t-shirt swap group, then you've probably encountered some of the same feelings outlined below.

1. When you’re a new member and you first start scrolling through the Facebook group, overwhelmed by all of the options and excited to get your first shirt with your chapter name on it.

2. When you see a cute t-shirt posted that is way out of your budget.

3. But then you decide that it’s worth the extra money because who knows when this design will be on sale again!

4. Or when your chapter’s T-Shirt Chair organizes a bulk order for an expensive shirt so the price comes down a little more and you can finally get it.

5. Seeing another sister selling a t-shirt that you love, only to see that someone else bought it before you could express your interest.


6. When it gets to the point you’re so used to the group that you have nearly all of the t-shirts posted on the page (or your closet just doesn’t have enough space for more shirts with your letters on it!)

7. When University Tees puts out a new cute shirt and you quickly go to add your email to the comments.


8. But when you forget to turn off notifications for the post and your Facebook notifications explode with other members commenting on the photo. (Because let's be honest, everything by University Tees is adorable!)

9. When you finally place your order and you have to wait for your shirt to come in the mail (which sometimes can honestly feel like forever!)

10. Yet when it finally arrives and you can finally wear your new sorority shirt over and over again until the next cute shirt is posted in the group!


We should all get used to this cycle. After all, it's going to continue until we graduate. Happy shopping!

A Few Thoughts Every College Freshman Has

The transition into adulthood is never easy

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
