Here is a question. Do you prefer having class fields every Friday or two-hour lunch at school? I prefer having class field trips every Friday to a two-hour lunch.

I get to go to a place that I have never been to before. I get to broaden my horizons. As a student, I can go to places with my friends and classmates. As a teacher, I can go to places with my students and co-teachers. This can help us bond with each other and make memories of our adventures. We can take pictures as we go.

There will be something to look forward to on Fridays. We need a break from school. We need to have fun sometimes. It is good for us to go outside and breathe in the fresh air. We can walk around and reenergize ourselves. We can also exercise and reduce the amount of stress that we feel. We can also use the field trip to celebrate our hard work and the end of the school week.

Students will learn more about the world when they go outside. They will be more observant of their surroundings and be more practical with their decisions. If students are learning social studies, then they can go to places that they learned in class and see them in person. They can also see historical landmarks, monuments, and places. They can also go to colleges and universities. This will give them an idea of where they want to go after they graduate from high school.

Students will also get to learn about different cultures and their customs. They can go to restaurants and try out cultural foods that they have never tried before. They can go to places like Chinatown to explore the culture and events there.

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.

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.
