College Classes

Choosing a major is hard. Believe me I know. Informatics is actually my third declared college major! I changed my major my junior year when I came to IU (the main reason next year will be my 5th year!).

This year, spring has a late onset. Mother Nature seems to be torturing us by having the weather become nice as soon as it is finals week. It is not helping me be any more productive than I already wasn't. Last week,  my "dead week" wasn't very lively. No, I didn't spend the much need time off from...

Wow! Time has REALLY flown by!

According to a recent poll by the American Institute for Economic Research, Bloomington (home of the Hoosiers) is considered the 16th best college town in the nation. Now don't get me wrong, that's a respectable ranking; but the college towns selected before Bloomington are what upset me. For...

E.E. Cummings once wrote, "Be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you everybody else. It means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting."  I was reading one of the other blogs that was written by Chelsie and I...

Hello new Hoosiers! First of all, let me welcome you to the family! You've made a great decision! I'm a moderator for the new IU Facebook group for admitted students and many of you have asked about what to do when it comes to choosing a roommate. Should I go random or room with a friend? Well, I...
