As much as every college student values their education, at times, it feels impossible to survive. Here's the not-so-pretty side of the college experience as told by the great Nicolas Cage.

1. When your professor tells you the exam is cumulative


2. When you’re in the Library at 3 a.m. and someone walks in with Cookout



3. When you wash your hair for the first time in two weeks


4. When you try to plan literally anything for a group project and eventually you just go insane


5. What your whole class is actually thinking when the professor asks who read the chapter for homework


6. When you skip class and find out there was a pop quiz


7. When you haven’t slept in days and someone asks how you’re doing


8. When you felt like you crushed the exam, and then you get the grade back


9. When you decided to look cute for class because the only thing you’ve worn in public for the last month is gym clothes and Crocs


10. When you’re professor asks you why you didn’t cite an article


11. When the rubric says you need primary sources


12. When you get points off for using first-person pronouns in an essay

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
