Tom Hanks announced via Instagram yesterday that he and his wife Rita Wilson are being quarantined in Australia because they tested positive for the coronavirus (COVID-19).

Tom explained that they had flu- and cold-like symptoms and got tested to be safe. He said that "Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed" so they will be treated and isolated in Australia.

The couple's son, Chet Hanks, took to his Instagram account as well to update the public on the nature of his parents' condition.

He noted that they were in Australia because Tom is shooting a movie there. He went on to say that they feel fine and "aren't even that sick."

He says that he doesn't think it's "anything to be too worried about" and thanked everyone for their thoughts and "well wishes."

I'm going to be honest, I really am unsure of why he posted this, it was kind of just him recapping what we know with a twist of "they'll be fine." My biggest question for Chet is why aren't you wearing a shirt in a video of you updating the public on your parents' coronavirus condition? Not exactly the best time for a thirst trap.

Hopefully soon we can get an update from Chet regarding his parents' treatment, but for now, we can have peace knowing that "they're not trippin'."

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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.
