Students who love their school will still be able to list off the aspects that suck about it. If you go to Grand Valley State University, here’s 10 things that suck that I’m sure you can relate to.

1. Size:

This can be a good thing but not when you try to get a quick bite to eat on campus and end up bumping into everyone. It can range from co-workers to classmates to old high school peeps you were hoping you could avoid.

2. Doors:

Everyone holds doors open for people at Grand Valley State University. At times, it gets to a degree of politeness that just seems weird. You don’t have to wait 1-5 minutes for me so I can get through the door. Thanks, but no thanks.

3. Tailgating.

We get it, it gets crazy before games. But please put your empty bottles in the trash!


4. Printing:

This has just recently become a problem but avoiding printing at certain buildings can be easier said than done at Grand Valley State University. Not to mention that you aren't allowed to print past 500 pages a semester so be careful what you print.


5. Food:

Rotate your on-campus food choices. It can get repetitive really quickly.


6. Textbooks:

They are expensive as hell, but at least GVSU has the price comparison feature. Most schools' bookstores aren’t cheap either but at least Grand Valley State University doesn’t hide which places give you a better deal.

7. Printing:

Yes, this deserves another spot. Chances are you hit a good day if the printer isn’t down somewhere. Don’t try fixing it yourself either. It WILLget pissed at you.


8. Parking:

Parking is incredibly expensive due to lack of it at Grand Valley State University. Don’t be that guy who thinks they can get away with parking in the handicap spot in the landing zone under fuel. Guess what? You can’t.

9. Buses:

If you aren’t even slightly buzzed and you’re on a bus during the weekend, you are in for a world of obnoxious annoyance due to all the party-ers. Skip the trip and phone a friend. It isn’t worth it.

10. If you go under the blue bridge structure you aren’t going to have bad luck.

You will get weird stares from people who believe in the superstition though. Yes it is annoying having to deal with societal norms but don’t be the odd one out in this situation at Grand Valley State University.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
