50 Questions I Have For Culver
Culver

It may have only been 8 months since I hung up my kilt, straightened my ring and walked through that long-awaited arch, but nonetheless, I am a Culver grad and I am proud to be one every day. The oppurtunities I was given to travel, lead, and learn is something not every high school student is given and for that, I feel blessed. However, there are still numerous questions I have for Culver, so I decided to compile a list of... The 50 questions I have for Culver!

Disclosure - this in no way meant to be mean, but instead, some good fun.

1. Why do the guys march to breakfast? Some of them only have to walk a couple yards...

2. What would happen if the grass for one Parents' Weekend did not magically turn perfectly green? Would the world come crashing down?

3. Was that screening of "Tom Brown of Culver" necessary?

4. Can I get unlimited rides from Quella?

5. Can I select the next concert series?

6. Is there really a Beason secret? I mean c'mon...

14. How weird would it be if I put the Culver song as my ringtone?

15. Can I have that cheesecake recipe?

16. What is actually in baked ziti?

17. How did the harkness tables fit into the humanities classrooms? Is there a "build your own harkness table" kit?

18. Why is Mark Sailing one of our notable alums? He got kicked out and has been to arrested more times than his character on "Glee"....

19. Should I choose an apple or a granola bar?

20. On a scale from 1 to 10, how "Dead Poets Society" is our school?

21. Why does Corky write in all caps?

22. Do I REALLY need to take the PSAT as a freshman?

23. Why can't we wear other school logos on civvies nights?

24. Was the class of 2016 really that bad? Don't answer that...

25. Why are the bananas always green? And don't say it's because people like them that way...

26. If Culver was Hogwarts, who would be Snape and Dumbledore?

27. WHY CAN THEY WEAR REG IN THE DINING HALL NOW? (Just kidding, I know why, but every alum still asks.)

32. Can I not write another goals sheet?

33. Why can parents get their own class rings?

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
