Freshman Ten
(It’s not just about the weight gain) 1. “If you’re having roommate problems I feel bad for you hun, you got 99 problems and a biotch is one.” All we can suggest to those of you who are struggling with your roommate, is that it’s key to have those “go-to” friends that allow you to escape from your dorm room from time to time. 2. If you see a dirty dollar bill lying around campus…beware. Chances are it’s a poppy dollar. Happens to the best of us. 3. Have a good fake ID? That’s awesome!! Go ahead and throw it out. Sorry, but you’re not getting into any bar at DePauw until you’re 21. Two words: birthday book. 4. Check out The Den in the basement of Longden, it’s the only college cafeteria serves your meal to you. Divas? Go That!...

For today’s blog post I will demonstrate how to make a 15-minute stir-fry as well as a modern twist on a classic Chinese drink....
