How To Spot A College Student

All we need to do is get our butts to class

Finals are coming up and now more than ever can you spot a college student. Here are some pointers to see if any college students live near you.

1. They are wearing slippers outside even though there is snow on the ground. P.S. the slippers sometimes don’t match

Who wears shoes anymore? Slippers are more comfy,

2. They are wearing one of three things, sweatpants, pajamas, or the same outfit 3 days in a row

There is no money or time to do laundry and I have stopped caring what I look like that this point.

3. Someone walking around at 1 in the morning

DON’T BE ALARMED, it’s only us college kids walking back from the library.

4. We tend to sleep in random places

What do you expect, we haven't been asleep in a few days.

5. All of the paper

We use a lot of paper to study, and we use our computer, our notes, our notebooks, our regular books, our friends note, online videos.

6. All the Netflix

What can I say, we like to pretend that finals are not happening quite yet

GOOD LUCK AT FINALS WEEK EVERYONE

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

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.
