You know that you go or went to Ursinus College if you can identify with any or all of these things…

1. You wake up for class 15 minutes before it actually starts.

In your three minute walk to class you will run into approximately ten people that you feel the need to acknowledge, say hello to, or smile at.

2. The struggle is real when it comes to taking Wismer coffee to go

When you stop at Wismer for coffee you can’t take more than one paper coffee cup or you’ll get yelled at by the staff.You can’t only take one though because you’ll burn your hand. Sleeves, would be a simple solution to this problem but Ursinus hasn’t caught on to this new technology yet. They also haven't caught onto lids, but one battle at a time!

3. You will inevitably run into everyone that you don’t want to see.

You’ll run into your ex. You’ll run into your ex’s new S/O. You’ll run into the professor whose class you skipped. You’ll run into the annoying girl from your 8 a.m. You’ll run into the guy who stares at you in class, you’re fairly certain he’s planning your murder. You run into all of them.

4. Spending the night with someone means you'll be awkward with them until you graduate.

You’ll spend the night with someone one weekend and the next morning you completely ignore their existence at brunch. Eye contact? Forget about it. You stare at your feet as you pass the line for cold pancakes. You will pretend that it absolutely never happened. You're not sure why you’re being so awkward about it but they’re being just as awkward so it’s okay. You will likely never speak to them again.

5. Small schools means lots of hook up overlap

Speaking of spending the night, you’re probably spit sisters or eskimo brothers with half the people you know.

6. It's okay to vocalize your political beliefs! Sometimes...

Think about the political stereotypes associated with your major before speaking up in class on your opinions about Trump or females in politics. It's an open floor for sensitive topics but some people are more sensitive than others and be ready for a lot of backlash if you don't agree with the masses.

7.You never worry about theft.

You can leave your phone, backpack, wallet, laptop ect. out in plain sight and no one will take it. People leave their laptops out for hours in the library while they nap or eat or whatever. I leave my phone on the dinner table while I get food and it’s always there when I get back.

8. You sit at the same table for every meal.

So does the football team, the 207 guys, the swim team, the sigma pi brothers. Everyone has "their" table. You get a little bit annoyed if someone else is sitting there. You claim your seat in class like this too.

9. There is lots of alumni involvement.

The alumni for your organization or sports team probably still get involved in drama. You aren’t sure why. But you know all of their drama too so it evens out.

10.There are no secrets at Ursinus.

All of campus can know your business in as little as 24 hours if the wrong people know. Rumors spread like wild fire. You can’t be sneaky. If you cheat on your S/O they’ll know within a couple of days. If you have pink eye everyone’s going to know in a few minutes and even campus safety officers will tease you about it.

11. Displays of affection in the library or Wismer are a big deal.

If a guy comes up to your lunch table to say hi he’s publicly announcing that you are an item and your friends freak out. If you’re the guy walking up to the table be prepared for everyone sitting with her to turn around and flip out as soon you walk away.

12. You have an opinion about "The Wrap Lady".

There are certain days of the week that you won’t, and I mean refuse, to get a wrap because of who the person working the deli is. I haven’t met a single student who likes the way she folds a wrap.

13. The wifi connectivity SUCKS.

You’ve probably been trying to read this article for 15 minutes despite its short length. The internet likes to take its sweet time loading, rebooting, opening new windows, scrolling and just about everything else. You can have perfect Wi-Fi in your dorm room but then you move to the library for crunch time and your laptop just won’t connect

At the end of the day though despite constantly talking about how you cant wait to get out you know you go to Ursinus if you love your school. Your professors care about your academics and personal life. You have the potential to be in the 85% marriage statistic. Most importantly you know your friends are forever.
