10 Signs That You're Having Senior Scaries

If senior year is approaching for you, then you might have a strong case of the Senior Scaries...Or maybe it's just me? Here's a few things you might be feeling as this last year of college quickly approaches:

1. You can’t wait for this school year to start, but you also wish time would slow the F down.


2. You calculate down to every dollar exactly how much money you can spend each semester to not be completely broke when graduation comes around.

3. You face the reality that you’ll inevitably be broke by graduation, but at least you had fun while it lasted.

4. You reflect on your full time job or internship from this past summer, and suddenly grad school starts looking pretty damn enticing.

5. You start thinking about ways to earn money post-college without having a real 9-5 job. Then you realize you’re not Mark Zuckerberg.


6. You try to rationalize how going out 6 days a week this semester is normal because it's the last time you can ever live this reckless and lack of responsibility.


7. You envy all the incoming freshman, and live vicariously through them and their trips to Ikea.

8. You have an overwhelming feeling to rebel before becoming a real adult.

9. Every time someone asks you your plans after graduation you make up a solid sounding, but extremely indefinite plan.

10. You start calculating your parent’s income and wonder if you can realistically convince them to let you stay a child for just a few more years.

Don't let the Senior Scaries prevent you from having the time of your life this last year of college, but how about we just never grow up? Deal? Deal.

Ten Truths Every Honors Student Knows

One of the main reasons I came to Salem State was I was offered a spot in the honors program. While it offered many benefits, scholarships and priority registration to name a few, what drew me in was the strong sense of community and close knit friendships many found. I am glad to say that that I did find these things, and so much more. I found a home made up of some of the most brilliant and most unique people I have ever met. Being in an honors program creates a college experience unlike any other and creates some universal truths that really only an honors student can fully understand.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?
