10 Signs Your Summer Is Going Great... So Far, At Least

Since June is now a distant memory, it's only fitting that we evaluate if we've really spending our days exquisitely, and not too expensively.

1. Venmo has become your main stream of social interaction.

The function isn't lit unless all the attendees are passing around their phones excessively to enter your Venmo usernames for more party favors.

2. Your Snapchat memories include the following:

Girls falling from elevated places, guys getting bitch cup or selfies you take when you receive that false sense of confidence at 1am.

3. You have called off your summer job - twice.

Everyone is on their summer grind of course but only the strongest individual can rally after 4 hours of sleep and begin to function professionally.

4. Your laundry is kicking your ass.

All your favorite t-shirts & shorts combinations are dirty, and all your clean clothes are not to be worn in public. What do you do? Do. your. damn. laundry. silly.

5. You've lost your Juul - in your own house.

There is nothing more aggravating than ruining your entire bedroom and your backseat for the most essential plus one anywhere you go.

6. Your parents see you twice a week.

As much as you love your family and the eerie of silence that is your home, not being home for 20+ hours a day is not a bad idea.

7. You've spent more time outside than on your phone.

Honestly, the best memories are the ones you don't even get a chance to Snapchat to all your streaks.

8. You have subconsciously created a clique.

After spending so much time & money together, your late-night ralliers have become more like your second family.

9. Your cancelled plans are a jump-start to a fun night.

Someone has work & someone else has to go on a date tonight, what do you do? Invite more people, make bigger plans & better memories with people who's availability is more flexible.

10. July is expected to be a fucking movie in the making.

One month down, one to go.

Who will win Summer of 2018?

Get back to me and let me know.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
