There are things that you just can't learn about zoom about UWG. Here are some of those things so you can keep it in mind.

1. Dorm Life

You can't experience dorm life through Zoom. It's just not the same, you have to be able to live in a small space with a roommate you barely know. I live in Center Pointe suites but there are also the Oaks and University Suites as options.

2. Z6 dining hall

You cannot experience fried chicken Wednesday's through zoom, there is no smell-o-vision. Or the ice cream bar!

3. East Commons

You cannot experience the pizza through zoom, it's just not possible. Also, East Commons is much easier to experience in person for meeting up with people from your classes for any meal of the day, even before those 8ams.

4. Love Valley

This is right across from the campus center, it's the big grassy piece of land that connects you at the end of the day from where you come from whether it's class or Starbucks, and it will lead you to the other side of campus. You can't experience this on Zoom.

5. Campus Center

It's so big to experience online, there are many things that go on in here, the gym, and many seminars are in here. It will be tricky to learn about this all on zoom.

6. Starbucks

You literally cannot experience a cold or hot beverage from Starbucks on campus. There are also good seats in Starbucks in person if you want to enjoy your drink with some friends

7. Ingram Library

Now this one may seem a little odd, but trust me on this one. The library has everything you need to have in-person from computers to study nooks and even has a quiet floor for studying. You can't go wrong with this in person.

8. The TLC

The main hub for the writing center, lecture halls, and your other smaller classes in the computer labs. I have had several lectures and classes in this building

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.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

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.

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.

1. You're tired of school food and have resorted to surviving off junk food and cereal.

2. Your financial aid/money is running out...and chances are it all went to textbooks and takeout.
