27 Questions Students Have For Sam Houston State In Fall 2017
Sam Houston State University

Let me start off with a disclaimer: I love my campus.

Sam Houston State University is a wonderful school that's provided me with an amazing degree plan to prepare myself for the future. I even moved across the country to be here.

It's a breathtakingly beautiful campus that has a ton of opportunities to have fun and build a resume. It also has some pretty peaceful study spots to for students to kickback and clear their minds. It's the best of both worlds.

However, there are some curiosities about SHSU that puzzle me, as well as other students. So, I asked around and compiled a list of questions that have crossed our minds so far this past semester.

Here's what's been racking all our brains for the last couple months:


1. When will the construction near the rec center be finished?

2. How do I exit the library parking lot without scraping the underside of my car?

3. Speaking of parking, can we clarify when it's free?

4. Why do departments say it's free after 5PM, but we're still receiving tickets?

5. Who are those spaces reserved for after 5PM?

6. Why is financial aid always experiencing a "high volume of calls?"

7. Could the services in the Estill building be open past 5PM?

8. Why is 5PM the deadline for so many things?

9. Why was the fountain green earlier this semester?

10. Why does the Paw Print Cafe close between lunch and dinner?

11. Why are the keyboards in the CHSS computer lab always so sticky?

12. Where is the off-campus body farm?

13. Will the ice cream vending machines ever be in service?

14. Is there a way to limit the religious extremists from harassing us between classes?

15. Why do people not understand that you go up and down the stairs on the right?

16. Why do so many people walk around on FaceTime?

17. How does our football team manage to win nearly every game?

18. Could campus be any more photogenic?

19. Is the whole 'walking under the clock-tower' curse true?

20. Why don't we advertise our Fine Arts events as much as other events on campus?

21. Can we get extra credit for staying in the library until close every night?

22. Could we get free access to another computer lab? It's like a frenzy during lunch hours.

23. Where's the best place to take senior photos on campus?

24. Do the fast food services on campus take gift cards?

25. Could we get some upperclassmen on-campus housing?

26. Are there any haunted houses or hayrides around here?

27. Why did it take so long for Huntsville to get Uber?


What questions do you have for SHSU that didn't make the list?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
