This list is in alphabetical order, by major. Try to find your specialization!

1. Aerospace Engineering: The Moon

https://giphy.com/gifs/nasa-apollo-mission-14-3o72FkTQbDO8vREFhe

Okay, this seems utterly nutty, but it is possible. Starting in 2018 (that's right, this year!), SpaceX is offering up quaint little trips to our little reflective night-buddy. Tickets have already been sold to the first two tourists, who will explore a destination that is truly out of this world. Outer space is rad to everyone, but is perhaps just a little cooler to those who have dedicated their lives to studying the galaxy and staring at the stars in a mathematical way. Best part? This vacation will only cost you $150 million. Pocket change or ROCKET change? Ugh, that was bad - I deeply APOLLO-gize. Okay, I'm done.

2. Architecture: Vienna, Austria

​Any future-architect out there deserves to feel like royalty! Now is the time surround yourself with feats of human design and send yourself back to medieval ages with sky-scraping towers and moats straight out of a storybook. And there's no better place than Austria for this unforgettable vacation.

3. Art: Florence, Italy

My sweet summer artists out there, you were meant to express yourself - who better to learn from than legendary Italian artists like Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, or Donatello?! And those were just the Ninja Turtles! There are more (like Caravaggio and Giotto). There must be something in the pasta over there to inspire so much creativity. So, what are you waiting for? Go and paint with the greats.

4. Biology: Port Douglas, Australia

G'day mate! Biology majors should adore being among the vibrant life in the stunning Great Barrier Reef.

5. Business: Singapore

https://giphy.com/gifs/timelapse-singapore-DP0zRwQKtlqda

Despite its tiny geographic size, Singapore is one of the leading economic and cultural influences of Asia. It conducts respectful business dealings and renews itself in industry every second. Business majors will be enlivened by the buzz of a growing and thriving atmosphere. This place has nonstop city lights shining almost as bright as your future!

6. Civil Engineering: Dubai, United Arab Emirates

https://giphy.com/gifs/timelapse-photography-2YD2AaRkOfKww

Dubai is the epic success story of the Middle East. They essentially pulled themselves up by their bootstraps and built a major cosmopolitan center in the last thirty years, and every civil engineer will be floored by the math behind its skyline. The U.A.E. has the world's tallest building: the Burj Khalifa, in which you can zoom up 160 stories! Tell everyone "Du-BAI" and have yourself some much needed futuristic fun! (I'm sorry for that pun).

7. Communication or Journalism: New York City, New York

https://giphy.com/gifs/city-new-york-8uiZLn37DZIXu

Communication and journalism majors itch for a big city fix to match their high energy, (I would know). Home to the most revered newspaper and magazine publications, New York has been waiting for you. Take a bite out of the big apple and experience the greatest city in the world for all of its quirks on this vacation!

8. Computer Science: San Francisco, California

https://giphy.com/gifs/hitchcock-novak-parallelz-RR88G8gxVJDKU

Not only does San Fran have the culture, the food, and the nightlife you would expect from a beautiful California town, it also is home to the most tech companies per capita. Surround yourself with robots, coding, and lots of signature pizza and you are guaranteed to have a good time. Why not work for an exciting start up on this trip!

9. Education: Seoul, South Korea

https://giphy.com/gifs/exo-luhan-outfit-lTWlVOPEbg1JC

South Korea oozes wonder and deluxe experiences. As the U.S. is currently realizing, South Korea does a lot of things right: food, music, and ...education! Future-teachers can see a new and incredible culture and learn from a different classroom approach of this country that yields a whooping 93% of on-time high school graduation rate.

10. English: Oxford, England

https://giphy.com/gifs/shakespeare-oRfKrv2eTF6Hm

Anglophiles know that all the true classics of English literature were birthed in the Motherland. From William Shakespeare to Charles Dickens to Jane Austen to C.S. Lewis, British writers have inspired Western culture and, thus, inspired you to write! If you're enthralled by books, Oxford is the perfect place to vacation and brush up on your reading and writing skills.

11. Fashion Design: Paris, France

http://media.giphy.com/media/aIFjd0I5BR7EI/giphy.gif

The most romantic city. You know, the one refines taste and starts trends. Paris will make you fall in LOURVE. Strut on by for Paris Fashion Week and have the classiest vacation of your life.

12. Film Studies: Mumbai, India

https://giphy.com/gifs/bollywood-holi-yeh-jawaani-hai-deewani-3otPoqJNk4MDfdL9Qc

Hollywood's younger and more delightful sister, so-called "Bollywood", is the perfect place to travel for future directors and actors. A rich and colorful society, good grub, and a movie-industry (that we can all dance to) equal a heavenly recipe for a trip of a lifetime!

13. Geology: Maui, Hawaii

https://giphy.com/gifs/disney-pixar-disney-lava-R3fgEuBh1KXm0

I don't really have to convince you to go to Hawaii, do I? It has views and volcanic activity that make for all the igneous fun that you can handle - which totally ROCKS.

14. Healthcare: Vancouver, Canada

https://giphy.com/gifs/canada-robin-williams-HVTJBh1JyhZq8

Free medical care and poutine. Enough said.

15. History: Giza, Egypt

https://giphy.com/gifs/pyramids-JEri4fOQAm0Vy

History majors should come here and transport themselves back to approximately 3150 BC, when ancient Egypt was created and civilization was transformed forever!

16. Marketing: Disneyworld in Orlando, Florida

https://giphy.com/gifs/happy-fourth-of-july-disneyworld-dykd-yYcziBgUkxEUo

Let's be honest, we are all controlled by the Big Mouse. I live for the Disney culture. Walt Disney was a marketing genius and this place is a testament to his strategy. However, this does not dull the shine of the Happiest Place On Earth! Like in advertisements, here, they think of everything, from pumping out vanilla scents into the air to all the Mickey-shaped foods. Disney makes you feel a sweet nostalgia all vacation long.

17. Photography and Graphic Design: Jokulsarlon, Iceland

https://giphy.com/gifs/northern-lights-srSbd4PwdJOkU

Someone with an eye for aesthetic and a good camera must pay Iceland a visit during aurora borealis (or, the northern lights)! During this, photography and graphic design majors are able to capture the gorgeousness of the night; they can simply reach up and touch the very heavens that give them a personal color show.

18. Political Science: Washington D.C.

https://giphy.com/gifs/civil-rights-march-on-washington-the-3o6ZsVuQw2StpwojGE

Future-presidents! Do not wait, this vacation will educate and it is totally first-rate. Museums and democracy galore!

19. Psychology: Berlin, Germany

https://giphy.com/gifs/germany-berlin-german-3ohfFmyp5Rm9aDNhMQ

Germany is totally neat by itself, but it is a bonus that this country is known as the founding place of modern psychology. Pioneers like Wilhelm Wundt, Sigmund Freud, and Kurt Lewin practiced here! So, come on down to good ol' Deutschland!

20. Sports Management: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

https://giphy.com/gifs/brazil-germany-3xz2BD13oXdHdIsuFq

In this vibrant country, football rules and "Christ the Redeemer" reigns.

21. Theology: Jerusalem, Israel

https://giphy.com/gifs/jerusalem-1SszYJLL1kMScpmrnf

Jerusalem is the holiest city in the world for three of the biggest religions in the world (Judaism, Islam, and Christianity). Those interested in the study of God must come to the home of the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and for funsies, float in the Dead Sea.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

panera bread

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
