A Day In The Life Of A Stevenson University Student

Stevenson University is a college unlike any other. As a smaller sized private college, going through big changes, Stevenson is surely unique. With three campuses, shuttles, and finicky wi-fi, a student’s day is all but smooth. Despite a potentially rocky start to a day, students have nothing but love for the Stevenson family and community. Here is an average day in the life of a Stevenson student.

7:00 a.m.: Wake up after seven alarm snoozes and rush out the door to Rockland in order to get food before your 8 a.m. or just shove in a granola bar as you’re running to catch the shuttle.

8:00 a.m: Walking from the shuttle to your class (which you are already late for) because the shuttle schedule wasn’t running on time.

9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.: Going from class-to-class, and from one campus to another before either being done for the day or stopping for a lunch break.

1:00 p.m.: If you’re on the Owings Mills campus, you are likely to scarf down some food at Rockland, but if you are lucky, you will get the chance to use flex dollars elsewhere. If you’re at Owings Mills North, well there’s not much of an option there…. If you are at Greenspring at this time, well you are one lucky dog for they have the best food out of any campus.

2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.: You are either finishing up classes for the day or heading to your on-campus job so you won’t be “college broke” any longer.

5:00 p.m.: Here is where you make the important decision of whether or not you get an early dinner and beat the rush, or cram in some homework for an hour before eating. It is also the time where you will see what Rockland has as their dinner option, and contemplate whether you really even want to eat at all.

7:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.: As both athletic events and club meetings are going on at this time, you have yet another important decision to make. You must decide whether you want to go watch the soccer game or attend one of the meetings for the multiple clubs you are involved in.

9:00 p.m.: Well it’s that time of the night where your loads and loads of homework is just beginning to be done. You have three papers, two forums, and 72 club projects to work on, not to mention you have to get up early in order to make it to Jazzman's before getting on the shuttle.

11:00 p.m.: In the midst of doing homework, your RA is knocking on your door, checking in during rounds, which causes you to start a conversation, which can go on for about 45 minutes.

1:00 a.m.: Exhaustion is setting in but you have only one more paragraph of the paper that is due tomorrow. You are likely to fall asleep on your desk while struggling to keep your eyes open.

3:00 a.m.: You wake up sweating because your suitemate turned the heat all the way up and their door is locked and you can’t turn it down. Then the dread hits before falling back asleep as you realize that you have to wake up in a few hours and do the same routine all over again….

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
