A Little Registration Frustration

11 Interesting Classes To Take At Bridgewater State University
Bridgewater State

Not really sure what to take for class in the fall of 2016? With registration coming up, everyone is frantically coming up with their dream schedules, back up schedules, and for some...schedules that are full of random classes for credits. Maybe you want a semester full of excitement and more importantly, a semester where you will enjoy your classes.

Here are 11 fun and and exciting, and interesting classes that are coming up in the fall of 2016 that you might find yourself wanting to take!

1. Exploring the Universe (PHYS 107)

I am taking this class currently and it is by far one of the best classes at BSU. It counts as your lab requirement, and if you take the night option, you get to go up to the observatory and look at the night sky. Honestly, this class is out of this world. (That was sort of funny so)

2. Sign Language (COMD 231)

I have been wanting to take Sign Language for the past few semesters. Hopefully I get around to it before I graduate. It fills fast so have that CRN number ready to go on the day of registration.

3. Television Studio Production (COMM 215)

What is better than to learn how to direct and edit your own TV show?

4. 2D Game Design (COMP 426)

I have always wanted to make my own video game.

5. Classical Mythology (ENGL 304)

I could take a million classes on mythology and never get bored.

6. Meteorology (GEOG 221)

Doesn't everyone want to know how to tell the weather?

7. Food Chemistry (CHEM 298)

Otherwise known as a food, science, and culture, this speaking intensive second year seminar is a must take if it is offered during the semester!

8. Forensic Geology (GEOL 180)

Learning how nature and geological conditions helps solve crimes...cool.

9. American Gothic Literature (ENGL 251)

If you need an english class to fill a requirement, but also want to be spooked, take this class.

10. Basic Rock Climbing (PHED 203)

SIGN ME UP.

11. Yoga (PHED 234)

So many of my friends have taken this class and told me it was totally worth it, and a relaxing way to get rid of stress during the semester.

Remember to make sure that you are actually able to take the class before you come running to me in tears because you can't get in! Good luck with registration!

A final note about choosing classes- If you take the spot in a class that I need to take and I do not end up getting in... beware.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
