The Worst Curse Word There Is

The R word has got to go

The Worst Curse Word There Is

Really?

You still use this horrible word? If this word is in your daily vocabulary I can not see us having any sort of future, whether it be romantic or social.

Equal

For me this word is equal to any curse word there is. There is the C word or the F word, but nothing is worse than the R word.

Think before you speak

A problem with society is people don’t think before they speak. If you use this word, you don’t know a person's past or future. Personally I want to be a special ed teacher, so this word along with many others is one I would not like people to use. Also I may have a friend who is special needs or has some difficulties in specific areas of life.

Are you really defending yourself?

Just stop. Don’t defend yourself, that word is a horrible word that does not need any justification for its use in your daily vocabulary. You can easily switch it out for the word “pointless.” example:

Yo! That presentation was so R*******.

Change it to:

Yo! That presentation was so pointless.

Repeat what you said but use a different word

If you say the word and realize it was a mistake, just restart your sentence. People will understand, going on with it makes you seem even worse of a person.

Don’t be that person

Finally, don’t be the person who says how against it they are but then go out and call someone or something the R word. NO ONE LIKES A FAKE.

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.

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.
