The 10 People You'll Meet In Your Freshman UD Dorm

Because out of the hundreds of people you meet, some personalities are bound to stick out.

The 10 People You'll Meet In Your Freshman UD Dorm

1. The Stoner

Their dorm room is covered head to toe with weed paraphernalia, and they likely have a red, green and yellow color scheme going on. Refers to their room as "the trap". Unlikely that you have ever seen them sober. Smell something suspicious in the hallway? You know exactly whose room it's coming from.

2. The Hermit

You've heard that this person exists...but you've never actually seen them leave their room. People have been having some doubts about whether or not they're actually alive in there.

3. The Frat/Srat One

This person is never seen without their greek letters appearing somewhere on their body, and never heard without greek-life related talk coming from their mouth. I mean Stacey, we're really glad that Sigma Apple Pie is treating you well, but we would appreciate it if you could tone it down a little bit.

4. The Athlete

This person has a 6 gallon container of Whey protein on display in their room because absolutely everyone needs to know that they lift. You don't need to ask Chad what he's up to, because you already know he's "getting swole" at the gym.

5. The Partier

The partier is always energetic and ready to go out, regardless of the day of the week. In need of a party spot? He/she is the go-to every time.

6. The Messy One

Ok but really...have you ever seen the floor? Their dorm room smells like a mix of cat pee and drunken regret.

7. The Mama’s Boy/Girl

Overhear this person on the phone with their parents and it probably goes a little something like this: "Mom...how do I do laundry? Also can you put some money in my account?"

8. The Super-Studious One

This person is constantly obsessing over their studies and while you admire them for it, you are also slightly concerned. Probably seen crying into their physics textbook at 2am while surrounded by empty cups of coffee and RedBull.

9. The Wanderer

...Do they even live in this building? No one knows, but the whole floor has accepted them as one of our own.

10. That One Couple

Yeah, you know exactly who I'm talking about. They met during the first month of school and have been inseparable since. You don't really know what their faces look like because they are constantly pressed together. Breathe, people. Breathe.

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.
