The Dangerous Decision: Duke Versus Yale

The game with no winner.

The Dangerous Decision: Duke Versus Yale
mashable.com

As if the upcoming election didn't leave us with enough difficult decisions to make, the NCAA tournament has provided us with one more... Dook versus Yale. How does one choose between the lesser of two evils? Well, have no fear. I'll help you make your decision right here.

1. Attire. Line them up and check them out. Who can wear the most Polo and pastels? Who has the best pair of Croakies? Who has the cleanest Sperrys? The winner here will manage to best fit their school's colors into a preppy outfit perfect for church on Sunday and brunch with Grandma.

2. Campus. This one is tough because neither can truly win. Take a seat on campus and sight see. Is anyone smiling in either place? Probably not. First to ten students who look like they're actually enjoying themselves wins.

3. Honor. What alumni can throw their alma mater pride in your face the fastest? Which one can boast about their accomplishments and fellow alumni in less than thirty seconds? We know this one is difficult because it involves you talking to them, but I promise, there's no way it won't be quick.

4. Argument. Line 'em up and get 'em started. Put a student from either university on the podium and let them fight it out. The first one to make you grateful that you don't attend their university is the obvious winner.

5. Player comparison. Let's just give it to Yale here. No one likes Grayson Allen, no one ever will. Sorry, Dookies, this one is an L.

The solution: Everyone throw up your prayers to the basketball gods. Let the basketballs deflate and the water be full of posion and let us rally for one thing: No one wants anyone to win this game.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
