12 Signs You're In A Sophomore Slump, As Told By "New Girl"
Cheatsheet

College. It's a doozy. It's only my sophomore year, yet I am already feeling run dry from the work load I have been getting from my classes. Just about anything sounds better than going to class Monday through Friday. (Sorry, mom and dad.) Here's my account of the phenomenon "The Sophomore Slump,' as told by my favorite characters of "New Girl."


1. You find just about any excuse to skip class and do something more, uh... productive.


2. You seriously consider dropping out of school and moving to a foreign country at least twice a day. Who needs college, am I right?


3. You show up to class hungover, looking like a hobo.


4. You give yourself pep talks just to produce the motivation to go to class and ya know, learn or whatever.


5. When all you can think about in class is how hungry you are and how much you hate people.


7. You actually show up to class one day and you're like, super proud of yourself. 4.0 GPA here we come.


8. The only motivation you have to go to class is the semi-cute boy that sits across from you in your lab.


9. You literally have no remorse when you sleep through your alarm for your 9:30 class. None. At. All.


10. Any type of research paper seems like the hardest thing in the world to accomplish.


11. You finally show up, after a week, and the professor reminds the class of the 100 assignments due by 11:59 that day.


12. You feel the need to skip class and get coffee at the campus Starbucks. And see your professor whose class you haven't been to in at least a week.


But HEY! You just got through a full week of classes only wanting to die like four times! Congrats!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.
