11 Ways To Stay At Gonzaga Forever

As any current or recently graduated student at Gonzaga might know, it’s hard to leave the beautiful campus we call home. Some (possible even most) of us would stay for an eternity if we could, and that’s why I have taken the liberty of creating a list of ways that any Zag might stay a Zag forever.

1. Keep failing or never take one of your required core classes.

Study like this.

2. Attend GU’s law school.

Channel your inner-Elle Woods, and it'll buy you two-three more years with the Zag fam.

3. Work for Sodexo in the COG.

COG cookies everyday of your life???

4. Join the priesthood or a convent.

If you love Jesus as much as you love Gonzaga, then this could be the perfect option for you!

5. Coach one of the athletic teams.

Gonzaga has a chess team right?

6. Teach at Gonzaga.

Dibs on being the next Zumba instructor!

7. Move to the Logan neighborhood permanently.

The Logan neighborhood is the perfect area for raising kids, and I hear that it's pretty quiet on Friday and Saturday nights.

8. Build a statue of yourself.

You might not technically be there, but a statue is the perfect way to show you're on campus in spirit. I hear they're only a couple thousand to build

9. Work for CAMPO or join the Logan police force.

Be the hero Gonzaga needs.

10. Be the next Thayne McCullough

Even though he’s irreplaceable, he is going to retire eventually. When that sad day comes, Gonzaga will be looking for somebody to fill his shoes. It’s gonna be a lot of pressure since he’s such a cool prez, but one of us has to do it, and you’d get the ultimate perk: staying at Gonzaga forever.

11. Spend your four years at the university wisely, and leave behind a legacy.

It’s cheesy, I know, but if you live your time at Gonzaga to the fullest-- soak up as much information as you possibly can, form intimate and authentic relationships, eat cookies every Wednesday at SubCo and figure out who you genuinely are-- then you’ll leave a piece of yourself behind, and you’ll never regret it..

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
