College can bring some interesting people to your life. Here are some of the 10 people you'll meet:

1. Your Roommate

Love them or hate them, you're going to be spending A LOT of time together. And if you get along you'll do some weird stuff in front of each other, because let's face it — college is hard and we all need to just let loose sometimes. Whether you need a good laugh or cry, this person will be there for you. They will also be there for late night food runs or pizza delivery (which is really important)

2. The Unofficial Roommate


This is the person that probably spends more time in your room than you do. You can always find their belongings in the room, and there no boundaries on who really owns that hairbrush (and they're eating all of your food).

3. The Jock

This guy can always be found at the gym, on any sports field, or running through campus. Usually in athletic clothes, and always sporting his team apparel.

4.

The Selfie/Insta Queen


This girl can most likely be found trying to find the best selfie lighting on campus. You've all seen her Instagram, and have wondered how to master the selfie like her.

5. The one that takes Intramurals Too Seriously

Every campus has the guy who takes intramurals too seriously. Most likely a former athlete, or wasn't good enough for the actual team so he brought his "talents" to the game thats all for fun.

6. The Over Achiever

This one can be found at any club meeting on campus — probably leading it. Always in the library, always has the answers in class. You hate this person, but wish you had half of their motivation to study and build your resume.

7.The Fraternity Guy

President of his fraternity, this guy can be found on campus proudly wearing his letters and recruiting new members. Most likely to be found with a beer or two in hand.

8. The Drunk Girl

Always down for a good time. Most likely to compliment you in the bathroom of a bar or fraternity party. She's probably known as a hot-mess on campus, but hey we have all been there.

9. The Overly School Spirited

Most likely found wearing the bookstores latest school mascot imprinted tee, on the sidelines of any and every game cheering loud and proud for their beloved *insert your school mascot here*

10. The Complainer

There will always be that one person who complains about everything the school does. The food, wi-fi, class schedules, grades, students, professors, anything and everything. This person will try to convince you your school is the worst place ever.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
