Gotta meet 'em all. Maybe.

If The Different Types Of People You Meet At College Were Pokémon

It's no secret that "Pokémon Go" has been taking the world by storm. By now, it's racked up nearly 21 million daily users. Rather, the bigger surprise may be the unexpected age group of that statistic: college-aged, 18- to 22-year-olds. Maybe it's just because we love the nostalgia behind it all, but I like to think it's because Pokémon are pretty similar to the people we surround ourselves with on a daily basis at college.

1. Lickitung is the person who loves to photobomb every picture at a party.

2. Bulbasaur tells you all about sustainability and gives out reusable containers to encourage recycling.

3. Eevee is the "basic bitch" who takes a picture of her textbook and Starbucks cup, captioning it on Instagram as #finals.

4. Cubone is that kid who still thinks blink-182 and Sum 41 are considered punk.

5. Slowpoke is that person who always shows up 20 minutes late to class - and it's the wrong one.

6. Oddish is the person who smoked once in high school yet still owns weed-patterned socks.

7. Gloom experiments with hard drugs. A lot of them.

8. Vileplume is always happy and smiling, most likely because they're on a never-ending trip.

9. Chansey is the mom of the friend group who only slightly judges you for your stupid weekend mistakes.

10. Exeggcute can't go anywhere without their squad of friends.

11. Mr. Mime is that kid who's oddly obsessed with "Hamilton" and belongs to an acapella group or the theater company.

12. Jynx proudly does the walk of shame every Saturday morning.

13. Butterfree advocates equality in the workplace, hates gender norms and uses hashtags on Twitter to let everyone know they #FeelTheBern.

14. Krabby is the person rumored to have STD's.

15. Jigglypuff always has his guitar out but only knows how to play "Wonderwall."

16. Snorlax gained the Freshman 15 the first month of school, but embraces it and reminds you that "dad bods are in."

17. Ninetales is the girl who shows up to class with a full face of make-up, her hair perfectly straightened and her life seemingly together.

18. Meanwhile, Nidoran♀ shows up to class in sweatpants and probably hasn't slept in a week.

19. Geodude is the guy with too much testosterone when he's drunk.

20. Dragonite says hello to you every time you pass them on campus, but you've never had a conversation with them and you're pretty sure they don't even know your name.

21. Blastoise is president of his fraternity and just wants to get drunk with his newest pledge, Squirtle.


22. Psyduck posts in the class Facebook group to see if anyone has the syllabus, understands the assignment, or knows when it's due.

23. Hitmonchan is the well-rounded athlete focused on balancing their sport and their 3.71 GPA.

24. Pikachu is the name on campus that everyone knows, whether it's for good or bad.

25. Drowzee gets to class early just to make sure he can get a seat in the back so he can watch Netflix on his laptop.

26. Machamp peaked in high school.

27. And Lapras sinks the last cup in beer pong every time - and makes sure you never forget it.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
