We all have some desire to travel, whether that desire takes you to a new state or to a new continent.  However, no matter how perfectly we plan, we may still run into some mishaps along the way because….well, life.  Considering how fate doesn’t always work in our favor, I have compiled a list of things that will help you to roll with these possible “incidents” that may happen while traveling....

With the daunting amount of clubs, fraternities and associations on a college campus, it may be difficult for students to decide which are worth joining and which aren’t. Many students may choose to be a part of an organization that holds fun events on campus that will give them experience in their chosen field or are just of interest to them.

Regardless of the reason, there comes a time when words simply aren’t sufficient for normal human conversation (disclaimer: this article may not apply to dog conversations). When the moment arrives for you to reply to a message in a speedy fashion with the best outcome, you may need to use emojis.

Whether it’s big/little crafting, decorating or just having a fun night in, sorority girls certainly know how to be artistic. That being said, sorority paddles are some of the best way for sorority girls to show off what they got.

Check it out and see if your paddle made the list!... Read more

On April 15, 2016, the brothers of the Theta Delta Chapter of Sigma Pi Fraternity at The College of New Jersey raised a total of $12,528.91 for the College’s Relay for Life event. Their outstanding efforts secured a first place finish among a field of about 55 teams, but it is unclear if the fraternity’s achievement was celebrated by the rest of the College. Whether intentional or not, the fraternity’s name was not announced until 5am to a tired and sparse crowd, instead of the usual 12am announcement during the height of the event.... Read more

The first thing I’d like to say is that taking summer classes is something that I would recommend if, for whatever reason, you’d like to finish up college a little bit quicker than you otherwise would. Just make sure that you can afford to do so first. Summer courses can be a relatively quick and in some ways an easier solution to get some of those needed credits out of the way.... Read more

Philanthropy events are a staple of Greek Life. It’s difficult to go a whole week on a college campus without being exposed to Greeks working hard to raise money and awareness to charitable causes. Here’s a list of the top 10 philanthropy events from the 2015-2016 school year.... Read more
