10 Questions All Kent State Students Ask

Kent State has a lot of features unique to its students, as does any university. Every student who ends up coming here knows and loves random tidbits about the school that outsiders just would not understand. Yet, with all of the wonderful features that come along with going to Kent, there are many questions about the school that we students always ask and really do not have answers for:

1. What in the world is a golden flash really? And why isn’t the black squirrel our mascot? They’re everywhere. They are honestly the true mascot. You can always find one eating french fries out of a trash can.

2. We all have at one point (or many, many points) been frustrated by fellow drivers in Kent. Why are we adding roundabouts to further add to the frustration? Why? Tell me why. Please.

3. Will construction ever be over? I take it back that the black squirrel should be out mascot. Orange construction barrels should be.

4. Who built the area between the student center and the library to be such a massive wind tunnel? Almost every area on campus is fine, until you get right there and start fighting for your life against the wind.

5. Is 7:45am really the only time there is to offer a course essential to my graduation? Are you sure? But are you reeeeeally sure?

6. Why would you ever get rid of Jump from the Hub? That was just plain wrong. Cruelty.

7. Why do we never get snow days when it's 10 degrees out and the campus looks like Antarctica? Getting the notifications about the satellite campuses closing when we're still open burns my soul.

8. Why do we pay for printing? We already gave away our souls and free will to go to this school.

9. Why are my classes always a mile apart from each from other when I have to be at the second one in only fifteen minutes? (Seriously, this always happens to me.)

10. How does it always take eight million years to find parking spot? Even at 7:30am. How. How is this possible?

How many of these have you asked yourself?

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
