To The High School Senior Who Just Accepted to Saginaw Valley State University:

Congrats!

Getting accepted to colleges is always a really exciting experience. It shows that all your hard work has finally paid off. Saginaw Valley State University is an amazing school and by going to SVSU you learn so much and get so many new experiences. SVSU has done a lot for me and it can do a lot for you too.

It has given me the opportunity to meet so many new people. In the three years that I have gone here, I have met a lot of people. I have become friends with people that I never imagined I would be friends with. There are so many different people with all different personalities and you'll definitely find those people that you click with. Some people I have clicked with more than others but that is what college is about.

The classes are more individualized. Most of the classes you would take at SVSU are more one on one. Other than a few big lectures, my classes have been around 20 to 30 students. This gives the opportunity for your professors to actually know your name. Your professors get to know you really well. They know your personality and your learning style a lot better than big classrooms. If you look like you're having a hard time your professors can tell and they genuinely care. They care about your future and not just about what you're learning at the time. The professors at SVSU are some of the best people I've gotten a chance to meet.

When you go around campus you actually see people you know compared to other campuses. I walk through the buildings and see at least one person I know. It might not be someone you are super close with, but at least it is a friendly face and a nice smile. It isn't like other universities where you have someone in a class but you never see them on campus. If you have a class with someone you are a lot more likely to see them on campus.

You don't have to take buses or drive to get around campus. At other universities, it could take 10 minutes with driving just to get to your next class across campus. A great thing about SVSU is that the campus is pretty small. You can get to everything on campus within 5 minutes by walking. The campus is pretty easy to navigate. Most of the buildings are connected, which means you don't have to walk outside. This becomes extremely useful during the winter when you don't want to walk outside.

SVSU becomes your home. It truly becomes your home away from home. SVSU is where you spend the majority of your time so it becomes home. Our campus community is also very close. Everyone on campus supports their fellow students through anything. We all work together to make the university even better than it is.

Congrats again on getting accepted to a great school. SVSU has given me so many great experiences and it could give you some too.

Sincerely,

Your Future Cardinal Peer

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
