Finals Week As Told by Parks and Recreation

It’s that point in the semester where finals week is approaching at lightning speed. Once Thanksgiving has come and gone, the pain of finals week likes to creep up on college students when they least expect it. Getting through finals week is a challenge, but the joy of officially being done with the semester is a great victory. In order to prepare yourself for the scariest week of the semester, I've decided to portray finals week with the help of the great residents of Pawnee, Indiana.

Not even thinking about studying till the week before.

Finally pushing yourself to get to the library and hit the books.

Getting a group of friends together to study so you don't have to go through it alone.

Ordering a triple shot of espresso to get you through the endless hours of studying.

Checking out your syllabi and realizing that some of your finals are cumulative.

Attempting to meet up with your group project members.


Treating yourself by ordering some late night cookies.


Hitting that point where you just can't study anymore.

Finally trying to get some sleep before your exams.


Walking out of a final knowing you killed it.


Going out and getting drunk 'cause you successfully survived finals week!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
