20 Questions for Murray State University
Kayla Harrell

Next week will start my last semester at Murray State. As my time as a Racer comes to a close, I realize how many unanswered questions I have for the university.

1. Why do the professors never, EVER grade anything until after finals?

2. Why do the espresso machines in the cafes always stop working?

3. Why do we have to pay $6 for a box of cereal at Fast Track?

4. Actually, why do we have to pay three times as much for anything at Fast Track?

5. Why is it impossible to make Winslow food taste good?

6. Why do meals cost so much at Winslow when the food tastes so terrible?

7. Why does Hart Cafe have such odd hours?

8. Why does the entire campus literally flood anytime it rains?

9. How did we manage to get the most adorable university president?

10. Why can't we use flex at any of the restaurants in town, especially the ones on the edge of campus?

11. Why are there any outlets near the tables in Waterfield?

12. Why do we only have two places to eat on campus?

13. Does Public Safety have a personal vendetta against students and their parking?

14. Is said vendetta why they give out so many parking tickets?

15. Do you even interview the professors? Some of them have no idea what they are talking about.

16. Is retirement given to any of the professors? Because some of them are seriously ancient.

17. Is it necessary to have the inside of the buildings feel 1,000 degrees when it is -5 outside?

18. Are the elevators ever safety checked? Some of them sound like they could break any second.

19. Why is transitions a class? It is so pointless.

20. Is it possible for Dr. Davies to take a selfie with every single student on campus?

Although I have these questions, I still love the university I chose four years ago. I will always carry Racer Pride.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
