But not all spots are equally enjoyable.

According to Google, Longwood University has sixty acres on its property. And according to me, most students here end up with an oddball hour or two on campus each day when it makes no sense to go home (especially if they don't live on main campus), but they also have nowhere to be. As one of those students with oddball hours that need to be passed somewhere, I have a few recommendations for the best places to waste some time:

1. The first floor of Ruffner, in the Rotunda.

2. The benches with the cover by Ruffner fountain.

3. The top floor of the STU, where the comfy couches are in the ballroom.

4. The balcony on the top floor of the STU.

5. The downstairs of the STU, inside or out.

6. The room with the fake fireplace in the upstairs of the library.

7. The Grand in D-Hall.

8. The sofas at the entrance of the library.

9. The chairs in the hall of Bedford.

10. By the dancing fountains.

11. The chairs along Brock Commons.

12. The group study area upstairs in the library.

13. The chairs and tables on the second and third floors of Ruffner.


Whether the weather is hot or cold weather or rain or sunshine, there is always a new place to go kill some time at Longwood. Maybe from this list you'll find your new favorite study spot.

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
