Be thankful for our cafeteria, its food and its workers. By no means am I saying that the caf is perfect but it is still something students should be grateful for. No, the food that's served there is not as good as your parents' home-cooking or as delicious and made with love as your grandmother's desserts, so on and so forth. We've all heard the shtick; I've participated in it once or twice, I won't lie.
Dear President Esteban and Athletic Director Pat Lyons,
We have smartphones for freshmen featuring customized "Freshman Experience" apps, Blackboard, SHUmobile app for smartphones, upgraded laptops and even i-clickers that measure a student's participation in class ? all technological advancements that Seton Hall has made recently to enhance the learning experience.
The new year, for me, usually means watching everyone getting caught up in the frenzy of setting resolutions. I say watching because over the years I've found myself not needing to set a goal that will more or less be forgotten by mid-February.
Is the Super Bowl even about the game anymore? Based on the coverage I have seen the past two weeks I find that hard to believe.
10. A Starbucks
David Strathairn is one of my favorite actors. You've probably never heard of him, but you have undoubtedly seen him in at least one of the numerous films in which he has appeared.
I recently had a discussion with a friend about what she called a quarter-life crisis.
As I enter my second semester of my junior year, I have come back more motivated to do work than I ever have.
"This break went by too fast," "I did not get anything accomplished over break," and "I wish that winter break was longer," are all common statements we heard as we reunited with friends and professors during our first week back. As we all start getting back into the swing of things, it is heartwarming to notice that the holiday spirit of giving is still strong on campus.
10. Intro to Wizardry
With the holiday season in full swing, people everywhere are rushing out to get the best gifts for loved ones, except me. I could care less about the Super Bowl for shoppers which is referred to as Black Friday.
In response to the new Facebook privacy chain letter, I hereby proclaim my fabricated copyright on all of the selfies, ranting statuses, and already illegally shared YouTube videos on my timeline, officially ensuring the rights to me and only me, despite the initial privacy agreement I already adhere to as a member of Facebook, and the rights I agreed to as soon as I sold my soul to social media by uploading my first cyber footprint.
If you are a 90's kid, you will appreciate the surprising news that "Boy Meets World" characters Cory and Topanga, played by Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel, will be returning in the new television series "Girl Meets World".
10. Get A's on every final
Winter break is fast approaching, bringing joy and excitement to both students and professors. After cramming for finals and participating in late night study sessions, the thought that less than two weeks are left in the semester sounds amazing.
The Setonian featured an article last issue that explained Seton Hall University's office of Community Development's policy on penalties for noise ordinance violations or any other police reports that take place at off-campus residences here in South Orange. The policy places students who live in non-school funded residences liable to fines and other punishments for being involved in reports from the South Orange Police Department. These students are subjected to appearing before the Community Standard Review Board upon request. The policy was implemented by the University under the pretense that Seton Hall University students represent the school and its principles even when they are not on campus. However, the reality is that this policy unjustly holds off campus students in a state of "double jeopardy," having to pay the school after paying the South Orange Police Department for the very same offense.
Every athlete, no matter what level of play, wants to have a game worthy of being put up on the highlight reel.
As November comes to an end and December begins, excitement and anxiety build. Not only is Christmas just 26 days away, but final exams are starting in exactly 13 days. The countdown to the conclusion of the semester has begun - study sessions and all-nighters will soon begin.
