15 Questions For Judson College

I do love it here, I just have a few questions.

15 Questions For Judson College
Bill Matthews

Mother Judson, as much as I love it here, there are a few questions that linger in my mind that I feel compelled to ask. Questions about why things are the way they are and why some things take forever to be fixed (or are never fixed).


1. Why can we never have all three dryers working at once?

Yes, they all run, but two of the three just blow cold air and never dry clothes.

2. Can we fix the elevators where they will work for longer than a month before going out of order?

I know stairs are healthy and all that but seriously, they suck.

3. Why must the Barron front door randomly break and stay open?

We don't always think to check and shut the door when we are used to it closing behind us.

4. Speaking of Barron, can we get a larger parking lot?

But really, parking in there sucks. So does pulling out. As does doing anything in that parking lot. Also, a gate would be nice; you know, kind of like W and Kirtley have..you know, to keep our cars safe.

5. Can we stop putting pesto on things that don't need pesto?

*cough* grilled cheese *cough*

6. Can we cook meat that isn't as dry as the Sahara?

Chicken should be edible and not absorb the moisture from my mouth.

7. Will you ever keep the blue PowerAde from running out?

Asking for a friend. @Chloe Crowder

8. If we have rules about how many skips we get in class, can you enforce them?

I hate going to class when others only go the first two weeks then show up only in the dining hall and the gym.

9. Will the roofs ever be fixed?

You know, like how Lowder floods; Barron's roof floods; everything floods. By the way, buckets and trash cans don't fix everything.

10. Can we stop lying to the Board of Trustees/Governors?

They know it's a college. They know we don't just dress up like that. That makes us liars. Liars go to Hell (according to Revelation 21:8 #ThanksGilchrest.

11. Why do we keep professors who consistently get bad evaluations?

And then let them be the only professors who teach the upper-level classes. I wonder why we all fail/drop/audit?

12. Why don't we control our own A/C in the academic buildings?

If the entire class thinks it is as hot as the inner rings of hell, we should be able to fix it.

13. Can we just fix Bean?

It is sketchy, old, always too hot or too cold, and the elevator feels like a death trap. If you can renovate a house that the president doesn't even live in, then we can fix Bean.

14. Why does mold grow in our air conditioners?

We already pay a good bit for college. Let's not add medical bills to the college expense list.

15. Speaking of renovating, when are we going to fix Barron?

I don't know if you have been in here lately, but it needs a makeover. Especially seeing as the bathrooms have an outlet that is on the ceiling over the sink.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

11 Times Aubrey Plaza Described Sophomore Year

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
