30 Times You'll Say WTF In College
NEOgaf

Throughout my 18 years of living, I probably say/think "wtf" (spell it out people) way too many times to count. I probably came out of the womb thinking it. Once you leave your little bubble of a town you realize even more how many times you whisper this fun little comforting saying to yourself. College is one big WTF.

1. Trying to find a class. wtf

2. Walking into a class late and having every stranger's eyes staring into your scared freshman soul. wtf

3. Trying to find your friends in the dining hall. wtf

4. Wondering why your room smells like ass. wtf

5. Why are you taking out the garbage for the 14th time today? wtf

6. WHY DOES THE ROOM STILL SMELL? WTF

7. Trying to figure out how "Sakai" works. wtf

8. When every laundry machine is taken and you either have to stand there awkwardly and wait or drag your dirty clothes back to your room. wtf

9. Finally being done with laundry just to realize your clothes are all still damp.wtf

10. People who ask unnecessary questions.wtf

11. People who ask unnecessary questions during the last 2 minutes of class.wtf

12. People in general, what are you doing? wtf

13. When you spill your cereal/makeup/life necessities all over your dorm. wtf

14. When the showers have no hot water. wtf

15. Bipolar weather. Make up your mind. wtf

16. When people walk at the pace of Gary the snail. wtf

17. Saying "hi" to people and then realizing it is not the person you thought it was. wtf

18. People who don't say "hi" back. wtf

19. The dining hall food, c'mon. wtf

20. Realizing you had 12 things due and you only did 4 of them. wtf

21. Walking into a party and there are only 7 people there. wtf

22. Having to drink more at the party to avoid awkwardness. wtf

23. "Did I really do that last night?" wtf

24. Watching your snapchat story the next morning. wtf

25. Seeing who you snapchatted after a night out. wtf

26. Looking at your bank account and crying. wtf

27. Trying to work on a group-project and somehow you do every single part of the project. wtf

28. When you are attempting to take notes and your professor skips to the next slide on the powerpoint. wtf

29. When your stomach is louder than the professor talking. Hungry student over here! wtf

30. When your food takes longer than expected to be delivered. hangry, wtf

WTF is our go to saying. Whether it's about something so small, or the biggest issue you've ever had to deal with, we can always whisper those three little words to ourselves whenever our hearts desire.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

Being A Senior: The Best And Worst Of It

Graduation is coming.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.
