The 10 Best Things About Moravian

It's a great day to be a hound.

Without these things we would be just like any other school, but no other college compares without Bagel Lisa or Don. Just some of the many reasons what makes Moravian so great. It's always a great day to be a hound.

1. Small Classes

Adding on to the list why being a part of a small college is awesome, the class size is definitely up there. Every professor knows your name, and you most likely have a friend in the class.

2. Bagel Lisa

Everyone dreads those 7:30's but Lisa always makes it a little better. Not only does she remember your name, your friends, she remembers your order. Lisa is like a second Mom on campus who always knows how to make you feel quite at home even in the B and G.


3. Beautiful Campus

No matter the season, fall, winter, or spring, Moravian is beautiful year round. Yes, it may be a pain walking up the hills when there is snow, but the scenery can sometimes be breathtaking.

4. Late Night Swipes

Nothing gets better than those drunk weekend nights when the parties are dwindling and your stomach is growling, all you need to do is head up to the B & G to grab some mac bites or cheese fries. Any greasy food you can manage to get your hands on to help sober you up so your hangover won’t be too bad to tackle all of the homework you saved to do for all day Sunday.

5. Walking Distance

Moravian being the size it is, is a privilege we don’t even know we have. You can be pretty much anywhere on campus and get across campus in about 5 minutes or less. Even having a class on South, a quick shuttle ride is all it takes.

6. Thursday Movie Nights (free food)

Once a week we are blessed with the opportunity to save a swipe and grab some of the free food they offer in the Pavilion. Not to mention, you get to watch a good movie while you eat and hang out with friends.

7. Main Street

Although there are many pros for Moravian being such a small campus, one main con is not many things to do on campus. Luckily we practically live right on Main Street which is home to some nice shops and a lot of great places to eat (Mama Ninas, Tapas, etc.).

8. Don

Ranging from his shining smiles greeting you at the front of the Marketplace to his campus-wide famous waffles, Don is pretty much the face of Moravian (well the cafe at least).

9. Sandella's

Whenever you get tired of the same old food the Blue and Grey has everyday, a quick bus ride down to South Campus is all it takes to grab a bite from Sandella's. Ranging from their flatbreads to their rice bowls, it's always a good meal and a good break for your taste buds.

10. Always Seeing Someone You Know

Being such a small campus, you are pretty much guaranteed to always run into someone you know. Yes, it may be the same people you run into over and over, but a friendly smile is always welcomed.

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.
