With Halloween right around the corner comes the pressure of what to be. If you are a college student, you're either ready to go all out or be something simple (which is usually how it goes). If you are stuck on what to be, here are 7 costume ideas that may be overrated, but are still great!

1. Cat


Honestly, I understand why everyone wants to be a cat for halloween; it's a great excuse to dress in all black, and you only need the ears.

2. Rocker


This costume calls for an old band tee and some black pants. It is super easy and no matter what, you can dress up in any way.

3. Risky Business

Most people have an oversized, white button down and some shades. At least it is a comfy costume and extremely simple.

4. Alien

This may have been so last year, but it is still an easy costume and super cute! A pair of cool printed leggings and a black tank is in almost anyone's wardrobe, or it is easy to find!

5. Fruit

Because if you could be any fruit, you would be a fineapple, even if every girl last year wanted to be one too. Who doesn't want to wear an oversized t-shirt and sneaks?

6. Zombie

Whether you want to be a zombie or want to look like you belong in The Purge, grab a white tee, throw some fake blood on it, and you're good!

7. Angel or Devil


Because everyone has their inner side, let it show! Whether you'll be in red or white, this costume is a classic and can be dressed up in almost any way.

No matter what you decide to be for Halloween, the best thing to do is have fun and be safe! Look super cute and be comfy, even if your costume is so everybody else. It's Halloween! It is one of the only days where it is socially acceptable for you to dress up as a piece of fruit and still look stylish!

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.
