7 Ways To Spot Freshman

1. They immediately write their newly given emails on everything and don't realize how much of a colossal mistake that is yet. Do not give your email to every one that ask at the Org fair. Its a trap.

2. They are caring paper print outs of their schedules with the room numbers on it, hard core squinting at buildings for markings to distinguish which one is which. (Is this the engineering building or science building??!) Honestly just ask an upperclassman. Make a friend!

3. They are legitimately Running to class...no just no. It honestly wasn't necessary senior year of high school and it Definitely isn't now. So just don't. Take the L and be a few minutes late. 90% of the time your Professor won't care.

4. They accidentally call their Professor "Mr/s". Fastest way to accidentally insult and annoy a professor. just stick to "Professor" or "Doctor" if you have to.

5. They are wearing all of their high school apparel. My favorite is the letter man jacket you pay so much for, probably wear the first week of school, and then bury in your closet until you go back to your high school for Homecoming.

6. When a sorority or fraternity member approaches them their first reaction is equivalent to avoiding someone sneezing in their direction because their only exposure to Greek life thus far has been Animal House and Neighbors. Thank you Zack Efron for that wonderful introduction....(sarcasm)

7. The phrase "Thirsty Thursday" might as well be a foreign holiday they have never heard of, and drinking during the week sounds just as bad as making out with the preachers daughter in their heads and they just seem appalled at the thought. Don't worry freshman, give it about a month or two and you will be surprised how fast your learning curve is.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters.

Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
