5 Hall Themes That are Making America Great Again all on Their Own

5. Denbigh Second

The ninties are all that on Denbigh second. Two super-fly things on this floor are a colorful Tomogotchi and giant paper Gameboy, made by customsperson Isabel Plakas. Shoutouts to Denbigh first and third, which have Legally Blond and dragons respectively!



4. Radnor third (and fourth)

“National parks” is not a very traditional hall theme, but it really comes together on Radnor third.




3. Rock 1st 2nd

HA Cassie Paul said the dog theme had seemed like the obvious choice. “I picked dogs because I have a dog,” she told the Odyssey. Cassie's dog, Charley, even has her own paper dopelgänger. Bonus points for coordinating with Rock 1st 1st, whose theme this year is cats.




2. Erdman third (in Merion)

HA Abbey thought it would be really funny if the theme was another dorm. Since Erdman had the most recognizable aesthetic, she and her customspeople dug in, making the charactaristic Erdman wall holes out of paper, and hanging up pictures of Erdman chairs, and Louis Kahn, Erdman's architect. There are even some sparkly black bugs on the wall, in a clever nod to Erdman's cockroach problem. The nametags on the door feature Erdman's distinctive blueprint.




1. Pem East second

HA Maggie Alvarez said the idea came to them in pieces. First they had wanted to do space. And they knew they wanted to incorporate dinosaurs, since Pem East second had dinosaurs last year. They also wanted to incorporate Drake into the floor to make it truly unique. "It started off as ironic," Maggie said of their love Drake, "but then it became unironic." The floor is peppered with hanging stars, print-outs of Things Drake Do tweets and Drake-related memes, and even a blow-up T-rex. This hall is truly an instant classic!

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
