Ladies, Trump Is Not Taking Away Any Of Our Fundamental Rights, OK?

Every American has the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We can vote, have a job, go to school and get as many degrees as we desire, go into any field we want, take out loans, have a credit card, live alone, sign our own paperwork, make our own medical decisions. We can do what we want, when we want, and make our lives whatever we want it to be.

Ladies stop crying and throwing a fit over something that hasn't happened.

Just because your party didn't get elected into office doesn't mean your rights are being taken away. Why? Because they haven't and won't.

Donald Trump cannot take away Roe V. Wade. Why? Because the Supreme Court gets the final say. Whatever they say goes. There is no repealing and there is no undoing Roe V. Wade. The only way it could remotely become undone is if the Supreme Court took up a different case with different circumstances and therefore had an outcome affecting a part of Roe V. Wade. Every woman and man has the right to say yes or no to an abortion (and, yes, the man should be apart of that decision).

If you do not think that women in America have fundamental rights, the door is right there.

Please leave and make room for all the people who will work hard and appreciate the freedoms and opportunities here.

Women in Saudi Arabia just got the right to drive, which is still a huge controversy in the country. Here nobody questions one's driving ability, legally, when it comes to gender. It doesn't matter if mom or dad takes their daughter or son to get their permit and to complete the state's requirements.

Women in American have the ability to go to college, in fact, more women than men graduate college. We can pursue an undergraduate, graduate, Ph.D., Law degree, whatever you feel you need in order to be successful.

I do not understand where this whole idea has come from. It is insanity to think that we have no rights what so ever and that our fundamental rights are being taken away. It is a fact that American citizens have the most freedom in the world. We are given rights from birth that people in other countries are dying to be able to have. Why else would there be so many people trying to get in? If you think you don't have any rights, then let someone else replace you.

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.
