8 Truths about being a Junior at SHU

Ah, junior year. We are more than halfway there but we still have a little bit until graduation. It all went by too fast. But being a junior definitely feels different.


1. Finally living with your best friends.

After two years of horrible roommates, I can finally say I love mine. Its so nice not having to travel to another building just to see them.

2. Being called an upperclassman.

Its awesome yet terrifying that we are finally upperclassmen. I mean freshman year was only 2 years ago right?

3. Not having to eat on campus 24/7

4. Not having to worry about waiting for the shuttle.


The year has come that we don’t have to leave our cars parked at Pioneer Gardens or Oakwood. We don’t don’t have to worry about being ready an hour early for class just to catch the shuttle, we can now leave with 15 minutes to spear which is just enough time to stop at outtakes.

5. Missing the shuttles because parking sucks.

From time to time we do in fact miss the shuttles because the parking situation is just awful. No matter what time of day it is, you just can’t get lucky finding a spot.

6. Waiting to be 21 so you can finally go to Reds.

It is the year we have been waiting for since we step foot on Sacred Hearts campus 2 years ago. After seeing several snap chats and Instagram posts from the senior class last year it has made us that more excited to finally go. The countdown is on!

7. Not wanting to be a senior next year.


As much as we hate saying it, most of us are graduating next year. Whether we like it or not its gonna happen. We are dreading the day because after it we won’t be spending everyday with our college BFFs.

8. Cramming in all your classes so you can graduate on time.

Graduation maybe more than a year away but we have many classes to worry about before it gets here. Junior year is probably the most stressful yet considering we now have three semesters to squeeze in the rest of our required or core classes.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
