We Need Change


Dear Mrs. McCaskey,
I’m a Chicago Bears fan, and am not pleased about what I have seen from the team this year. Or any year, save for 2010 since 2009. The excuses are endless as we have had 3 general managers and head coaches. We get players who turn out to be total busts, such as Gabe Carimi or Shea McClellan who bottomed out. In free agency we get big names both player and coach wise.
NOTHING IS working, and the excuses are running out, even as you charge fans way too much money to watch the Bears lose in person. Virginia, you are the daughter of George Halas who founded this franchise close to a century ago. What would he think of the mockery you put on the field every Sunday. He would not be happy with you and want you to sell the team to someone who actually cares about the product on the field instead of the pocketbook.
Why is the blame on you? You hired Phil Emery who screwed big time with the Jay Cutler deal and failed draft picks. You fired Lover Smith when he had great teams, but had rotten luck with injuries and assistant coaches. You allowed Marc Trestman to come in and ruin our defense. John Fox is a good coach but his record due to past mistakes looks bad.
Speaking of bad, we need a new QB. Barkley had one rough outing and that shows that he is either a backup or lower tier starter. We need to keep him along with Connor Shaw but get rid of Cutler ASAP. The only reason why he broke the records is because he has been mediocre longer than any QB in recent memory.
You did an okay job, but it is time for your family to sell this team, even if it means collectivism like that evil puke stomach bile colored team up north. Ask the Cubs what changes in ownership can do.
Sincerely,

Every single Bears fan

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
