Students Speak Up…How to Survive Block Party

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bloom U chapter.

I recently canvassed the campus asking Bloomsburg students who’ve been to Block and back just how they managed. Read on if you want to conquer this weekend…

**Names not included for obvious reasons

“Do not drink any drink you see and definitely don’t wear sandals.” Junior

 “The goal is to NOT survive” (I wouldn’t take this advice, pro tip) -Sophomore

“Know your limit, moderate yourself, and don’t die” -Freshman (some students attend Block prior to attending BU if they’ve been accepted to a Fall semester)

“Do not pet the fucking horses” -Junior (police horses, to be clear)

“Weed. That’s all.” -Senior

“No fighting!! Your beer muscles WILL. NOT. WORK.” -Freshman

Lastly, this sage advice seemed to sum up an important lesson nicely,

“Take it at a slow burn, we’re going to be packed into Fetterman all day. This is not a basement party that gets busted after a few hours. There is no need to get shitfaced at 10AM.”
