We claim all guys are the same and that they're all jerks, and yet we find ourselves running back to the same types of men over and over even after several bad experiences. And don't worry, it happens to the best of us. Okay, so maybe not "all" guys are the same... But there's definitely several types of guys that can almost always guarantee trouble. No matter how hard you try to change them, it usually only gets worse. So, I'd just avoid these types of men all together.

1. The Flake

This is the guy who hits you with that "When we gonna hangout?" text after having your plans fall through like a million times. He either sucks at planning or basically just always has an excuse on why he can't make it after you set up a date. Unless his grandmother had a heart attack or there's an army of tigers surrounding his house, the rule of thumb is if he flakes once without any sympathy, drop him.

2. The one who has a girlfriend but "it's complicated"

First of all, I can guarantee they aren't "fighting", they aren't "on a break" or it isn't "complicated." Second of all, even if they are, if he didn't have intentions of fixing things with her he would have ended things for good. So basically either he's a cheater who can't keep it in his pants after his girl fell asleep, or he's someone looking for a hall pass to hump and dump while him and his lady are going through a rough patch.

3. The Jealous Freak

It's always the guy who claims he doesn't want anything serious and that he isn't looking for a relationship that freaks out if you are mildly interested in anyone else. He looks over your shoulder when you send texts and asks you why your shorts are so short when he's not there.

4. The Broke Kid

He always wants to hang out just to "chill" at his place but doesn't have a car to come pick you up or even 5 bucks to get you an Uber home. He's good looking and cool but you can never actually go to a movie or to grab a bite to eat unless you make it clear you're the one treating. Not cool.

5. The Gym Obsessor

This guy sucks, because you feel awful getting annoyed that he's always busy at the gym. But seriously, who goes to the gym every day for 4 hours at a time and only drinks protein shakes? If sports and the gym are his whole life, that's fine. He just doesn't have time for you, and he probably won't make any.

6. The Depth Lacker

You're always the one doing all the talking, it seems like you've told him every thing there is to know about you but you don't even know where he's from. He's cute but so boring and you really know nothing about him because he doesn't even bother to participate in even a minimal amount of small talk. You can't force him to be interesting.

7. The One Who Hits On Your Friends


You send him a selfie with one of your friends and he jokingly responds "threesome?" Nice try buddy. Any guy who notices how hot your friends, sister, mom etc. are is probably just a sexually frustrated weirdo who obviously doesn't know how to flirt with a girl without coming off as a creep. No thanks.

8. The Drunk Texter


He only hits you up on the weekends after getting home from a party or the bars. He texts you "wyd?" at 1 AM and you're just like, "Hate to break it to ya but... Not you." These guys will do anything to try to get you to come over, but wether or not they "will send someone to get you" or claim they "just wanna hangout", don't go. It's always a trap.

9. The Incognito Lover


This is the guy you've been seeing for a while but you've never hung out in public and it's always one on one. It's awkward if you see him in person by chance because he never says hi or acknowledges you. Then claims he didn't see you when you ask him why he blew you off. He's embarrassed of you and isn't worth it.

10. The Rebounder

This may be the absolute worst type of guy because he just got out of a relationship and is obviously either completely heartbroken or claims he is still "good friends" with his ex. This guy recently had a girlfriend and misses the feeling of being loved so will go out of his way to court you, flirt with you and constantly message you just to try and mimic the feelings he had for his ex. News Flash! Him and his ex broke up for a reason and if he moved onto you so quick he didn't take time to better himself, odds are you'll fall into the exact same trap.

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.
