12 Reasons You Should Not Go To Loyola University Chicago
Loyola Mock Trial

Loyola University is a private university located on the north side of Chicago. With the new school year approaching, many incoming freshmen have made the final decision to attend Loyola in the fall. Although, if any of this list doesn't sit with you quite right, you might want to reconsider becoming a Rambler.

1. You hate being surrounded by one of the most beautiful campuses in the country.


Loyola has recently gone through some serious renovations. Between the new changes and the lakefront property, it doesn't get any better.

2. You don't want to have a campus feel in one of the best cities in the country.


As soon as you step on campus, you can't even tell that you're in the city.

3. You're offended by an obscene amount of rabbits.


Need I say more?

4. You don't want to study with a lake front view.


The IC! (Insert heart eyes here.)

5. You don't want to run into the cutest, most amazing nun in the world.


We love you, Sister Jean!!!!

6. You don't want to take classes at an awesome downtown location.


If you didn't know, we also have another campus downtown. It's pretty great.

7. You hate Wrigleyville and the Cubs, being that it's a short 15-minute drive away.


Go Cubs go!

8. You would rather eat McDonald's and Pizza Hut than amazing food like Bop N Grill, Nori and Pete's Pizza.


There are endless Roger's Park food options. If you hate food, this is not the place for you. We love our food.

9. You hate ALWAYS having a designated driver for nights out.


Bless you, Uber.

10. You don't want professors that care and actually know who you are.


I can't stress enough the importance of small class sizes in a big-university setting. Every one of my professors knows my name and it's amazing.


11. You don't want to go to a school that genuinely cares for social justice and equality.

Loyola works really hard to make improvements in regard to social justice, especially within our own academic community. If this isn't something that interests you, this is not the place for you.

12. And finally, you don't want to receive one of the best, most well-rounded educations at one of the best universities in the country.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

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.
