Hello all! I've been away a little while longer than I had intended, but I'm back and ready to blog! I was really excited to start the year because I was so eager to start classes I'd signed up for. Here are a few of my class recommendations, many of which I took my freshman year!  JOUR-J 206 -...

Disclaimer: This list applies almost exclusively to girls--sorry boys. I'm not good with your fashion! For those of you who are Indiana natives, none of this will be new. But for our new out of state students, you're in for a surprise: Fall semester is comprised of three types of weather: blistering...

Welcome Week is going to be awesome-- no classes, no class work, and plenty of time to meet new people! But the awesome doesn't stop there-- you're going to IU! It's always awesome! Once you've settled into your college life a bit, make sure to start the year off on a good note by preparing yourself...

As the year winds down and it becomes the ultimate crunch time before the summer, many of us IU students are looking for places on campus where they can get assignments and studying done while not getting distracted until said assignments and studying are done. Although Indiana University is...

When I applied to IU, I didn’t know any other students. I was excited to meet new people, but when I saw the option of living on a media-themed floor, I thought it was a great idea. This way I would get to know people that are interested in media, and we automatically have something in common....

I've had so many great experiences but I'd have to say one of the most valuable is getting to work with IUSTV. This is the IU Student Television. It's ALL student-run! On my show, Hoosier News Source, we do everything: write our stories, shoot our own b roll (the visuals you see for the stories),...

"The world has turned and left me here..." Yesterday I found myself sitting in anthropology when the instructor asked the class, "If you could have one of three things, what would you choose?  Money, Prestige, or Power? To my surprise I was one of two that raised their hand for 'prestige.'  We both...

There are definitely a lot of things I miss about IU and Bloomington, so I'll share it in a list: Dats (cajun restaurant on 4th Street) KOK breadsticks 2 am dance offs upstairs at Sports Being super productive at Wells Library Shopping on Kirkwood Avenue $2 dolla Tuesdays at KOK Brothers' Wednesday...

"Humans" by Islands, off their album "Return to the Sea" from Equator Records. While this track plays in the background, as I hope it does, think about this.  In my opinion there are two types of people in this world: those who live for themselves, and those who live for everyone else.  It's really...

If you're a freshman and are not sure what to study, don't stress yourself out too much because there are a select few who truly know what they want to study right away.  My advice would be to take prerequired classes that are necessary for most everyone on campus e.g. writing, public speaking,...
