An Elizabethtown College student recently published a New York Times bestseller for their amazing life story as a hidden celebrity. This book covers all their amazing adventures at the college, specifically how much they enjoyed the college specialties “carrot cake”and ‘chocolate air.” Right after the success of her book, thousands of people came to visit the college to walk the same halls that this celebrity walked and experience the tasty carrot cake and the smell of chocolate air the writer has been talking about non-stop in their book.
In the midst of this large number of people walking around the college, classes had to be canceled and the Elizabethtown Police Department had to take matters into their own hands to evacuate these “visitors” from the college. High school students from all around the world have applied to attend the fall 2024 semester just because of the amazing opportunities they have read from our hidden celebrity’s bestseller.
Katie Wagner, a second-year international business major with a minor in religious studies, expressed her concerns, “I am very happy with the classes being canceled, but those visitors keep eating all of our carrot cakes.” The problem we are facing now with this news is the shortage of carrot cake. As this may not please many of our students, other problems and concerns arise from the fact that many individuals are applying and the college may have reached its limited capacity.
“Will we have the opportunity of having more housing options if the school gets to its limit?” Madison Fredd, a third-year biology major said. She pointed out her fears and questions by asking if there would be opportunities to have more classes open and for professors to be able to expand the college.
Talks about the consideration of building more classrooms, campus houses, dorms and apartments have made the whole campus excited about the changes possibly being made for the semester to come.
In the hidden celebrity’s book, she went into detail on how welcoming the students and staff are. Her favorite times of the semester were when OSA organized bingo nights and TGIS. Her definition of Etown was, “It is an environment where you are assured success but also fun.” This has boosted the want of even middle schoolers to put Etown as one of their top go-to colleges already. The question people now ask themselves is how already-enrolled students feel about the way she has described her image of the college.
“These are the most accurate words I would use to describe Elizabethtown College,” first-year graphic design major Brooke West said. “I found my people and passion, and already know that the rest of my years here are going to be very fulfilling and will help me grow into my best version.”
“I am so thankful that people are learning more about our college, it makes me even more proud to be a Blue Jay,” second-year marketing major Olivia Gurman said. “I just hope that the production of carrot cake increases as people keep being accepted.”
The smell of chocolate has also led Dove chocolate lovers to come to theCollege in hopes of making their lives sweeter. As the person who brought fame to the college described in her New York Times bestseller book, “Etown will make your good days even better with the smell of Dove chocolate in the air.”
As days go by, classes are still canceled until the number of people coming to ‘visit’ the College lowers. Because of this, carrot cake is still in shortage until further notice.
