As we all know, Rutgers is a tremendously huge school. The New Brunswick campus alone has five smaller campuses where students live and university staff work. I mean, we are the only university with a bus system for a reason. Because Rutgers is such a big school, it is often difficult for students, family, friends, faculty and even local residents to find out what events are being held on campus, free or not.


Here's your guide to finding some of the best events that will be held at Rutgers--New Brunswick for April 2017.

Saturday, April 1st - Unity Day is an event which will be presented by The Black Student Union. This all day free admissions event begins at 2pm and ends at 9pm, entailing plenty of fashion, food, music and even a special performance by PNB Rock.

Friday, April 7th - Being that many students aren’t to aware of summer session classes, Rutgers hosting a summer session info table at the College Avenue Student Center is beyond helpful to many students. This event will be held at 11:00AM until 1:00PM and will include information on this year's summer session as well as plenty of giveaway.

Friday, April 14th - At 10:00AM until 11:30AM University Career Services will be holding an undergraduate advisory board focus group session at Gateway Transit Village where Rutgers undergraduate student’s could voice their opinions and suggestions to the program. Each student will be rewarded with a $10 in exchange for their participation.

Monday, April 17th - In the College Avenue Student Center Rutgers career services will be holding a job search boot camp. According to their facility, students who utilizes their services have a higher rate in job searching success. Some may say many students find a stable job before graduating as an undergraduate student.

Friday, April 21st - The Rutgers Gardens Farm Market will be living up to their mission by providing fresh, locally grown foods to students, local community, local residents, university staff, university dining services and restaurants. This event will be held at Hort Farm No.1 - Residence one.

Tuesday, April 25th - Given that finals will be approaching around this time, it is essential to keep your sanity. Faculty, staff and students are invited to “Mindful Meditation” on the Busch Student Center, where participates will be taught “the art of being a compassionate observer of their own experience”.

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.

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 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?
