Well, it's officially Fall, the most beautiful time of the year! The leaves are turning different colors, the air is crisp and Halloween decorations are finally coming out of their storage bins! When St. Ambrose students are away from home during this season, they look into places near Davenport. Here are 5 places to visit in Davenport during the fall season!


Asylum of Mad Dreams:

Located in Cordova, IL this haunted attraction is definitely one to visit, especially with Halloween right around the corner. Asylum of Mad Dreams, about a 30 minute drive from St. Ambrose's campus, will be totally worth the drive and will scare your pants off! Be sure to go with a bunch of friends who don't mind you holding their hands and screaming in their ears because that's what will happen once you step foot in the asylum of mad dreams.


Buffalo Pumpkin Patch:

This small pumpkin patch can be found in Buffalo, IA, about 20 minutes away from campus. Buffalo Pumpkin Patch includes hay rides, pumpkin picking, corn mazes, a petting zoo and so much more fun activities for any ages!


Stone's Apple Barn:

Located in East Moline, IL, this small apple orchard lets you pick from various different apples (when in season). There are 55 different options to choose from.You are able to pick your own apples, go on hay rides pulled by tractors, and feed small animals.


Copper Creek Trail:

This trail is a walking trail that only lasts about a mile long. Even though its short, it would be nice to enjoy the light, cool breeze that an autumn day would bring. This trail is located in the small town of Preston.

Tailgating at a football game:

LET'S GO FIGHTING BEES! Homecoming is this Saturday which means there will be tailgating in the parking lot before the game. Grab a bunch of other Fighting Bee fans, get some good food and enjoy a game of football. While the air is not too hot, nor too cold, put on a sweater, stand in the bleachers, and cheer on your favorite team!

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.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
