A survey taken at midnight on a Saturday.

2016's Pregame Playlist
The Perfect Playlist

Summary: The other night, I drove around my campus for five hours, picking up students and driving them to and from their various pregames and parties with a program run through our school. As riveting as this usually is, I decided to add a twist to the fun and make a sort of study.

Sample Kind: Simple Random. (a.k.a. whoever we picked up).

Question: What is your go-to pregame/frat song?

Here are my results:

My House – Flo Rida (II)

The 90’s – Charlie Puth

Don’t Let Me Down – The Chainsmokers

Shots – LMFAO (II)

All Night Longer – Sammy Adams

Hands To Myself – Selena Gomez (II)

Middle – DJ Snake

Jordan Belfort – Wes Walker

Caribou Lou – Techn9ne

Get Buck In Here – Dj Felly Fel

Lose Control – Missy Elliot

Five More Hours – Chris Brown

Gold Digger – Kanye West

Never Forget You (Oun Jweinat Remix) – Zara Larsson + MNEK

Me, Myself & I – G-Eazy

Snap Yo Fingers – Lil Jon

Cold Like Minnesota – Lil Yachty

Chain Hang Low – Jibbs

Closer – Nick Jonas

Bye, Bye, Bye – N*Sync

Check Yes Juliet – We The Kings

Doses & Mimosas – Cherub

Buy U A Drank – T-Pain

Backseat x E3 – Austin James

Come Get Her – Rae Srremurd

She Juicy – Lil Dicky

Paradise – Benny Benassi

Blasé – Ty Dolla $ign

Analysis: Truly a spectacular turn out from the student body of Elon University. We got a pretty mixed bag of people in regards to race, age, gender and general demographic-things. The majority of the songs were in the more predictable realm (*see Nick Jonas) but we also got some outliers in the mix.

As you can see, according to my calculations, artists like DJ Felly Fel were found a few standard deviations from the mean.

Conclusion: First and foremost, the Disney Channel artists are still stirring up the waters across college campuses nationally. From Wizards of Waverly Place to Elon University- Selena is still turning heads. The majority of the songs that were mentioned were no surprise. Drunk college students love to yell Jordan Belfort out car windows. Southern guys like to say “buck.” Not much new to report here.

Big thanks to all that participated in this study and stay tuned for the next installment.

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?
