What I love about college is that you are constantly surrounded by people. Although I consider myself an introvert, I love how much human connection you get as an undergrad.

Is college divestment possible, and will it even have an impact? This question isn't new. College protests are not something new either, they're woven into the background of a lot of recent American history.

As the 2023-2024 academic year is coming to an end, the senior scaries are in full swing for all of the rising seniors.

https://www.hercampus.com/school/u-conn/rom-coms-the-downfall-of-romantic-comedies-and-romantic-movies/

I went years without posting on social media. Thinking about what other people could think of me consumed me. Pictures I liked or was proud of never got shared because, hypothetically, what if that one girl from middle school who I never talked to thought it was weird? Or, I'd stare at the picture l...

Although we don't think about it as we enjoy sunbathing on the beach, sunlight actually has many benefits. We grow up hearing about how the sun provides us with vitamin D as a way to encourage us to go outdoors, however vitamin D has a variety of effects on our bodies, and that is not the only benef...

I’m relatively a new fan of country music and have only listened to Zach Bryan for about a year now, but I got hooked as soon as I started listening to his songs and I want others who might not think they like him to give his songs a try because they might be pleasantly surprised.
