Best Shows to Binge Watch this Summer

Summer is one of the most fun times of the year. Nice weather, trips to the beach and most importantly, no school. However, any college student can agree that leaving school for a few months (or in some cases, forever) can be a little boring. So when you find yourself bored on a Friday night at home this summer, don't worry, there are plenty of shows to binge watch to occupy your time.

1. How I Met Your Mother

For when: you need to laugh, don't want too serious of a show, and want plenty of seasons to watch.

2. New Girl

For when: you need to laugh and want an easy show to follow.

3. Grey's Anatomy

For when: you need a lot of seasons to watch, want a drama and need to use your brain (trying to understand the medical lingo will remind you of your intellectual abilities).

*All other Shonda Rhimes shows are great choices (How to Get Away With Murder, Scandal)

4. Friends

For when: Literally whenever. If you haven't watched all of friends you have some serious work to do.

5. This is Us

For when: You want a feel good show that makes you smile, but also cry uncontrollably.

6. Narcos

For when: You want to watch a serious but really good show. Warning, not meant to watch while multi tasking because you need to read subtitles.

7. Orange is the New Black

For when: you want a show filled with a little bit of everything (some laughs, some action, some suspense)

8. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt


For when: You need to laugh A LOT.

9. Criminal Minds


For when: You want a more serious action filled show. Will definitely not make you laugh, but definitely will keep you interested for many seasons.

10. Shameless


For when: This is another one you can and should watch all day every day, it's just that good.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
