To The College Seniors In Their Last Semester With No Motivation

It gets hard when you have been going to school for so long. You're in your last semester and probably don't have as many classes as you usually do because most of them are finished.

You have a lot more free time now so what you don't want to do during those times is homework, but you're so close to the end of the line you have to do it.

You tell yourself that you will do it later after you watch your favorite TV show and take a short nap. The next thing you know it's 12 am and you decide to just go to bed and that you will do it tomorrow. But really you put it off until a few hours before its due.

This time next year you won't be worrying about homework or if school will cancel because of the snow. You will have an actual job that pays well and all the free time in the world.

It seems a little unreal that you won't have to take another test again. You're probably still in disbelief right now, but I promise you the end is very near and you have to keep going.

So get off that couch, get out of bed, open up that laptop and see what's due this week and get it done! The amount of time it takes you to do it now will be the same amount that it will take you to stress out about getting it done on the day that it is due.

For now, you have to do the discussion boards and quizzes no matter how small and tedious they seem. In just a few months studying for those tests and doing those assignments means you walk across the stage in your cap and gown and get your diploma. You got this!

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
