My eletronics hate me
Yesterday was a very tough day for me. Tough, because it reminded me how big of a role my electronics play in my life, and how much of a pain in the butt they are. Let’s start at the beginning: I miraculously wake up with just enough time to fumble out of bed, put on [...]
Winter Series 2013
The English department’s 2013 Winter Colloquium Series has come to an end. We heard the fictional tales of Merlin, my very own research based findings on the women in “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight” and a great collection of poems and songs. From attending all three of the lectures (or giving one) I have [...]
How to stay in shape during the off-season
When my basketball season ended, I wondered what to do with myself. How was I going to keep myself busy? I have schoolwork, but I wanted to stay in shape. Well, I found a solution. INSANITY. The Insanity workout is a total body conditioning workout DVD. And yes, you have to be insane to do [...]

Run Night 2013
Though it seems like an eternity ago now, to me, Fraternity Run Night 2013 seems like yesterday. Run Night is when you find out which fraternity will invite you to join them after the formal Rush Week or recruitment week for the frat houses. It is held on that Saturday night and is a night [...]
Hiking in Happy Valley
A few days ago, I was walking up Scenic Drive away from campus when I saw a sign that said “Trail head,” which was surprisingly hidden from the road, but I didn’t have enough time to investigate. The plan for today was to see what was back there. After class, my friend, Matt Wehner, and [...]

Just a few study tips
As all the first-year students here have probably realized by now, in the five months since we’ve been students at Hanover College, it is a HUGE change from high school. Moving away from home, being away from family, meeting new people, learning how to live with new friends and making new friends can be a [...]
Networking starts with you
Here at Hanover you hear the word network dropped in conversation, email and in announcements all the time. After having so many great experiences and living in Hilton Head, Philadelphia and the lovely city of Hanover, I understand how important networking is. For me, I see a network as a spider web that connects you [...]
How to become an R.A.
Since the August Experience, I have wanted to become a resident assistant or R.A. When I met my R.A. at the beginning of the year, she helped me with what I needed to know about my dorm and housing, and she informed me about what to do for classes, how to balance my social life [...]
