UNC Charlotte is an amazing school and it isn't just because of the architecture. From puppies running around campus, to organizations, to a nonjudgemental free zone the campus has a lot to offer. You could walk around campus shirtless and attend classes like it and no one would think twice. You may get a quick tweet about you but mostly people cheering you on. The campus is filled with food options holding a staff that will get you to smile. Here are 14 reasons on why you should attend UNC Charlotte:

1) The women who works the register at Subway/Prospector

She calls everyone Sugar and just hearing her voice will bring a smile to your face

2) Campus is actually really beautiful

Minus the hills, every day is leg day but at least you’ll avoid the freshmen 15 right?

3) Big School Small Feel

With over 30,000 students you’ll still somehow know a lot of people or recognize faces. The campus is huge but you’ll never feel so much at home.

4) Plenty of Parties but Academics still matter

There is a time and place for everything but when it comes down to it, you’ll find the library so crowded that you won’t find a table on all 11 floors.

5) Clubs are only 20 minutes away and they have college night!

Grab your squad and get ready to dance

6) Norm

7) Tailgates

enough said, don't believe me? Look it up on youtube.

8) The Food Options

and lets not forget chick fil a and starbucks!

9) PNC Is Very Close

Who doesn’t love concerts?

10) Rent A Puppy

It happens almost every week when the weather is nice. You’ll probably skip class to play with a puppy for 15 minutes

11) Finals Week Means Puppy Therapy

More Puppies!! Bring them all in!! For FREE this time!!

12) You’ll never see trash anywhere

We Niners like to keep things pretty clean around here

13) Plenty Of Ways To Get Involved

There are many athletics, clubs, and organizations always welcoming new people!

14) Green Looks Good On Everyone

If you don’t agree, you’re lying to yourself

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
