It’s that time of the semester when freak-outs are in full tilt and the endless sea of homework has reached high tide.

Classes are something that we all have to put up with. I mean, that’s why we’re here, right? During the course of our college career, we are bound to have classes that we love and classes that we hate. We’ll have the experience of getting up for those dreaded classes at 8 a.m. and we

- Campus Life
- April 3, 2014
Dear Matt, I’m not doing very well in one of my classes this semester and I’m really tempted to withdraw from the class.
