College can mean many things for students. But, if you go to a school with a big Greek life population there are a few things that everyone should know:

1. Don't leave your drink unattended.

Not everybody has good intentions. The safety of you and your friends should come before all else.

2. Do arrange for rides.

Chances are you will be moving from party to party, which could be pretty expensive if you intend on ubering everywhere. Therefore, have a general plan of action ahead of time.

3. Don't sit on the toilet seat.

SQUAT, or just hold it if you can. They are gross, gross and more gross. Plus, there is never any toilet paper.

4. Do eat that greasy pizza at 3 am.

OK maybe don't do this every night, but it is very satisfying on occasion. No regrets.

5. Don't lose your fracket.

Having a "frat jacket" is an absolute must. When you feel like you're about to get pneumonia you will be thankful for that extra layer.

6. Do dance. A lot.

And do it like no one is watching. Nothing says college better than dancing with your friends in a grimy basement.

7. Don't go overboard on social media.

We get it. You have friends and are having fun. Why prove it to people that could care less by posting a minute story?

8. Do stay with your friends.

Does this one even need to be explained? No one should ever get left behind.

9. Don't wear anything you remotely care about.

Just saying, it will become destroyed.

10. Do bring a hair tie.

An absolute MUST if you don't want to feel (and look) like there is a wet mop on your head.

Frat parties can be a great time when done right. Making the right decisions will ultimately help shape your entire undergraduate experience and create ever lasting memories.

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.
