Kutztown University

With Kutztown University celebrating 150 years of excellence this year, what better way to show my appreciation and love for this school than talking about what makes Kutztown all that it is today? Here's a list of things that all Kutztown students can relate to:

1. Getting the geofilter on Snapchat was one of the most exciting things that's happened to you all semester ... even if "Pennsylvania" wasn't spelled correctly.


2. You've spent more money on parking tickets than on the actual parking permit.

3. You've felt personally victimized by the university's public safety at least once.

4. It's likely you've been late to your destination due to being stuck behind a horse and buggy.


5. Speaking of animals, you can always count on the campus to smell like a barn thanks to the immense number of cows this town has to offer.

6. It's only October and you're already out of Flex money thanks to Starbucks.

7. You've never been to Tommy Boy's, Mama's, or Spud's prior to midnight on any given night.

8. Class sizes double on exam days.

9. Speaking of class, whether it sleets, rains, hails, or snows ... you can bet your bottom dollar you'll still have it.

10. You've witnessed, know someone who has, or maybe even have done the walk of shame from Main Street all the way back to Apex.

11. You look forward to seeing a different uplifting message in the Alumni Fountain every day.


12. Over half of your friends are education majors or have been at some point in their college career.

13. You've attempted and failed at getting a cute picture in the Golden Bear statue's arms on campus.

14. The townies create a Facebook page for the purpose of bashing on "the brainless Kutztown students" (Concerned Kutztown Residents–look it up).

15. The only football game you attend all year is the Homecoming game.

16. You end all of your weekends with Sunday morning brunch at Bagel Bar.

17. Asking out-of-towners if they can see the angry chicken in the Old Main Bell Tower isn't a foreign concept to you.

18. You've run from the police before when trying to visit the quarry.

19. Parties are referred to by their house number and nothing else.

20. It takes at least 20 minutes to get to the closest Target or Panera (aka the finer things in life).

21. Every guest speaker you've heard at Kutztown pronounces our school a different way.

22. The shuttle bus driver has closed the door and left without you when they can CLEARLY see more people are coming.

23. You've seen "150 Years of Excellence" stamped onto everything this school sponsors.

24. Pet therapy day is one of your favorite days of the semester (or year).

25. You've made countless memories that you will forever cherish in this town, and you are damn proud to be a Golden Bear.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
