6 Types Of People At College Libraries

1. The Social Butterflies.

Those that come to the library to socialize and make some more friends. What's better than a study date in the library? After all, being in the library means you tried, at least.

2. The Computer Hog.

You know these people. The log-onto-a-computer-and-show-up-every-45-minutes-type-of-people. Or better yet, the let-me-play-some-video-games-on-a-computer-someone-could-be-studying-on type of people.

3. The-Live-To-Distract.

One way to do well in a class is to do well on your exams. Another, much easier method is too ensure that everyone else does poorly. Come to the quietest library of your college, distract as many people as you can, and then quietly fly away.

4. The Table Hog.

These people are everyone's favorite. They come to the library, mark their territory, and then show up whenever they feel like it. They don't really care about studying, but they sure don't want you to take their "spot," just in case they potentially feel like studying in the future.

5. The Eater.

These are the people that work less, eat more. They take every single study break physically possible to go down to the cafe and EAT. These people are also the loud obnoxious eaters on every floor. They won't study themselves, and will ensure that you don't either.

6. The Sleeper.

These are the college students who just don't find their dorm room bed comfortable enough. They take every opportunity to spread their books out, make it look like they are the most studious individuals in the entire college population, and then they fall asleep.

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

Being pre-med is quite a journey. It’s not easy juggling school work, extracurricular activities, volunteering, shadowing, research, and MCAT prep all at the same time. Ever heard of “pain is temporary, but GPA is forever?” Pre-meds don’t just embody that motto; we live and breathe it. Here are 10 symptoms you’re down with the pre-med student syndrome.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
