A Letter To My High School Best Friend
Sara Clemens

Dear Best Friend,

First of all, cheers to us for still being the best of friends even though we graduated high school over 2 years ago and we don’t go to the same colleges. I’d like to thank you for being one of the few people who means it when they say “I’m only a phone call away.” Whether it’s the middle of the day or it’s 2am, I can text or call you and get a response within a reasonable amount of time. Thanks for always keeping me updated with what’s going on in your life and for checking up on me when we haven’t talked in a few days. I don’t think I’ll ever find a friend like you, one who still tries to maintain a friendship despite the constant distance and busyness we have. I know you’re my ultimate best friend because when we’re reunited whether it’s after a few days or a few months, it’s like nothing has changed and we pick up exactly where we left off. I’m glad you’re the person that I get to reminisce on embarrassing high school stories with because most of the time we were with each other when they happened.

Thanks for being my gym buddy whenever we are reunited and also being the person I can pig out and watch chick flicks with on a Saturday night. Whenever someone asks who my best friend is, I’m more than happy to tell them it’s you because anyone would be lucky to have such an amazing friend like you! There’s no one else that I’m more comfortable around or willing to do crazy shit with. We both know that the only reason we come back to our hometowns during school breaks other than to see family is to see each other because, well, these towns have nothing else really going for them. Thanks for being my adopted 3rd sister and letting me be a part of your family too.

I’m glad I have you to give me a reality check when I need it and for telling me when my outfits a wreck or there’s something in my teeth. Thanks for being my Sunday morning coffee date whenever possible and for somehow ending up being allergic to gluten so that when we go out to eat I’m not the only weird one. You always know how to cheer me up when something’s wrong and that is something I am eternally grateful for! I can’t wait for the day when we both have amazing jobs and we can go out on our yachts and drink wine like we’ve been planning for years. Here’s to you best friend, I can’t wait to see what the future holds for us!

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
