A Letter To Purdue Seniors

To my fellow seniors:

Where do I even begin? You have inspired me from day one by getting to know all the girls in my pledge class and you haven't stopped since then. You have still tried your best to get to know the new pledge class, even though you are graduating. All of you are the backbone of our house and the main reason we are where we are now. You have worked hard to make our organization a place that we are proud to be a part of.

When there is a problem, you guys are the first people we run to for advice on the situation. Whether it was from our late nights spent studying or nights out at the cactus, you have taught us that grades are the most important thing about school, the house is one of the best blessings in life, and boy drama is not worth it. During times when we think life can't go on, you remind us that you have been in the same situation and you got through it.

I hope when you are out in the real world, you are thinking about all the good times you've had here and remember how much of a role model you are for the rest of the house. Even though you may not know where your path is taking you, just know that you have all your sisters here supporting you. I am truly at a loss of words to explain just how much you will be missed. Nothing can be the same, but I can only hope that as a senior next year, I can be just like you and live up to the legacy you have to leave behind.

Love always,

Your sisters

P.S. The real world is real lucky to have you because if we got it our way, we would have you here for another year.

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. 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.
