Fall Has Finally arrived
article by John Guthrie

        Yes, fall is finally here. Well, it sure ain't summer no more, at least
     not where I'm living. The leaves are beginning to change color, the
     temperature is dropping. And some days you wonder, where is the
     snow, it feels like winter. Can you believe that halloween is less than a
     month away? Seeing as though I am a college student, I don't think we
     celebrate halloween around here much. By god I think I even have to
     go to school that day. Halloween is a holiday, isn't it? Aren't people
     supposed to get holidays off so they can celebrate? From what I've
     heard, event the elementary school kids have to go to school all day.
      Back when I was in elementary school, I'm sure we at least had a half
     day or something. Those poor kids.   With the new season of fall, this
     means the end of many people's favorite season of summer. No more
     summer trips, back to school for the kids, and back to work for many,
     though then again summer can't last forever can it? Can it?

Party School? How About Study School?
article by John Guthrie

         I'm not sure who started this thing about MSU being a party school,
     because if you do too much partying, you probably won't be around
     here next semester. MSU, located in East Lansing, Michigan, is home
     to many Spartans. Now whoever said that college is easier than high
     school probably didn't go to college. There are quite a few differences
     between high school and college. One difference is that you get to
     schedule when you want your classes. Hell, you can even take classes
     at night if you want to. Shit, I don't have any classes this semester that
     start before 1 in the afternoon. Though you may not have as much time
     in class as from high school, if you want to be successful, chances are
     you'd better be studying an awful lot outside of your classes. When
     was the last party I went to? (besides birthday) I'd really have to think
     about that one. and even though I spent so much time studying for my
     classes, I still didn't end up with the grades I was trying for. College is
     a lot of work. (Or am I just signed up for really hard classes?) Still, you
     need to make time for more than just studying, going to class, eating,
     drinking, sleeping, and going to the bathroom. You need exercise, get
     out a bit, maybe get to know your campus a little better. When there
     are football games, things can get a little crazy around with people
     getting a little excited, maybe partying a little too much, and maybe
     drunk. (Hey, don't look at me, I don't think I've ever attended a
     Michigan State football game, though I've heard that they do have a
     pretty good team)   So to sum it all up, to some this might be a party
     school (until they end up flunking out of college), but if you want to be
     successful here at Michigan State, you might seriously want to consider
     this as a Study School.

Hey, maybe I should take my own advice and get back to studying........
