Georgia College has many quirks that make it the place that we all know and love. Whether you are a freshman, senior or grad student you must know the Georgia College ABC's. Do you know your GC ABC's?

A is for Arts & Sciences

Everyone is bound to have at least one class here, but make sure you are mentally prepared for the craziness of the fountain on the way to class.

B is for Blackbird

Good coffee and a great study spot make Blackbird the place to be.

C is for chalking

Because how else would organizations let you know what events they are having

D is for Deep Roots

Deep Roots is our pride and joy because it's the weekend all your friends want to come to Milledegeville.

E is for Einsteins

Who doesn't love a good bagel and cup of joe before class?

F is for the front campus

Front campus really is the best part of Georgia College

G is for Golden Pantry

Chicken biscuits and mac and cheese are always better at 2 a.m.

H is for Home

For four years these place becomes our home and it is where we learn, grow and become the people we want to be.

I is for Intramurals

We may not have a football team, but we have one of the best intramural programs ever!

J is for joy

Even with the hard times, attending GC has brought you nothing but joy.

K is for Karaoke

Tuesdays are the best day of the week because it means karaoke at Bufffington's.

L is for Local Yolkal

The best brunch and mimomsas in town!

M is for Milledgeville

Georgia College wouldn't be the same if it wasn't in this quite, little town.

N is for Not So Greek

The annual party that attracts hundreds Greeks and GDI's is a GC staple.

O is for Oconee River Greenway

The Greenway is good for adventures, running, studying and relaxing.

P is for parking

Finding parking at Georgia College is basically like the Hunger Games--every man for himself.

Q is for Queso

Between Barbs, El T, Gringos and El Amgio there is always a place to find a good bowl of queso.

R is for railroad tracks

The tracks are full or inspirational quotes so take a study break and check them out.

S is for SNAP

Because not all heroes wear capes

T is for Thunder

We have the best mascot.

U is for University Housing

You may live in an off-campus apartment now, but you'll never forget the dorm that you lived in freshman year.

V is for Victory

We are still undefeated in football!

W is for WRC

Helping us get through the freshman 15 and our sophomore 20. But make sure you have your bobcat card or they won't let you in!

X is for nothing

because nothing starts with x

Y is for you.

Georgia College would be nothing without you.

Z is for the Zzzz's we never get.

Naps are always a good idea.

Now that you know your GC ABC's go make the most of your time as a bobcat!

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?
