11 People You See During Finals Week Who Deserve A Slow-Clap

Finals week is, for most of us, a hot mess. From papers to exams to projects all suddenly due the same week, stress levels and tempers go from zero to 60 really fast. Nevertheless, there are certain people who, no matter the circumstances, seem to have their life together or simply exhibit a series of bizarre behaviors that the regular student cannot fathom possible. Here is a short list of those types of people while you procrastinate studying for that test or completing that assignment in favor of getting sucked into the magical black hole that is the internet.

1. Those who always look flawless

"Good for you," I say in my hoodie, jeans, and sneakers.

2. The professors who unwittingly sync up and schedule everything for the same day

And laugh when we tell them how we have three fifteen-page papers due the same day.

3. Those who stay awake without artificial stimulation

How do you even?

4. Those who do not pull a single all-nighter

Good for you.

5. Those who sleep more than six hours every night

Teach me your ways.

6. Those who manage to be completely prepared for all of their finals

They're like this dinosaur in two ways: 1. they are living the life, and 2. they are extinct.

7. Those who finish their papers more than six hours before the deadline

You unicorns. I admire your work ethic.

8. The professors who manage to get all grades in more than twelve hours before the deadline

And don't end up like Ted Mosby in this GIF by the end of the week.

9. Those who make it through the week without asking for extensions

I am sure your instructors are quite pleased with your performance.

10. Those who manage to stay in a good mood throughout all of finals season

Excuse me while I scream my frustration into a pillow and continue through your pleasant, smiley day.

11. Those who do not even have finals

So jealous. Go, be free, while I drown under this pile of papers and exams.

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.

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment.

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.

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.
