My time spent at the University of Tennessee has honestly been three of the best years of my life. From the awesome classes to Saturdays spent in Neyland Stadium, UT has given me the greatest college experience I could ever ask for. But, after spending all this time on Rocky Top, I have a few questions I would like to know the answer to.

1. Why did all this construction have to start during my time spent at UT?

2. Speaking of construction, when will Cumberland Avenue be finished? Three months? Seven years? Does anyone really know?

3. Why wasn't Field of Greens included in the new Student Union?

4. Seriously, can we bring Field of Greens back? These poor freshmen will never get to experience the amazing wraps and salads.

5. Speaking of food, how is it that we find the nicest people in the world to work at our Chick-fil-A?

6. To Parking Services, why are you the way that you are? What did I ever do to you?

7. Why can't football season be year round?

8. Why is it that I'm a junior and I've never met Butch Jones?

9. When will it be my turn to meet Peyton Manning at Gus' Good Time Deli?

10. Can we actually have a good football season next year? Pretty please?

11. Why is Hodges Library always -23 degrees?

12. Does anyone else feel like HSS is basically a high school in the middle of campus?

13. What is that weird statue on Ped Walkway supposed to be anyways?

14. Why do people still walk on the seal even though it's bad luck? Are they purposely wanting to graduate late?

15. Why is tuition so expensive?

16. More importantly, is it true that I get free tuition if I get hit by a UT owned vehicle (asking for a friend)?

17. How many times am I allowed to change my major?

18. If it snows this semester, can there be a snowball fight in Neyland Stadium without getting into trouble with the police?

19. Why is Ayres Hall the most beautiful building I've ever seen in my entire life?

20. How many stairs do I take everyday when walking up the Hill?

21. Do professors get together and plan their tests for the same work on purpose?

22. Will I ever have enough orange in my closest?

23. Why does PCB have the best mashed potatoes I've ever eaten?

24. How much weight did I gain from eating at PCB everyday freshmen year?

25. Can I still come eat at Southern Kitchen once a week even after I graduate?

26. Is it okay that I'm emotional about all of the residence halls being torn down in Presidential Court?

27. Does anyone really ever use the Bubble?

28. Can you actually graduate without painting the Rock?

29. Will I ever stop hating Alabama and Lane Kiffin?

30. How do I never, ever get tired of hearing Rocky Top?

32. Why do people think Disney World is the happiest place on earth? It's obviously Neyland Stadium after a win.

33. Do I really have to graduate?

34. Why is UT the greatest college in the whole entire world?

35. Will I ever be able to love UT more than I do right now????????

I'm thankful, grateful, and blessed to be a student at UT. But if someone could answer these questions, I'd really appreciate it. GO VOLS.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
