	A Husky's Guide to Studying Abroad By Her Campus Northeastern March 26, 2013 - 11:25am DO: Buy yourself a Venti Starbucks and spend a few hours at Boston Public Library or the Barnes & Noble at Prudential checking out travel guides before you leave. Create a bucket list and bring it with you to tape on your wall. This way, you won’t forget all the things you want to do while abroad. If you have an iPhone, download helpful apps like Viber, iTranslate, Skype, World Lens, Google Maps and XE Currency prior to departing. READ MORE
	Boston Restaurant Week Review: Post 390 By Rose Harvey March 25, 2013 - 8:00pm With one week of Boston Restaurant Week down and one week to go, it's time to start making the tough decisions on where you should spend your hard-earned money. Allow me to suggest Post 390, an Italian restaurant located in Back Bay, as one of your destinations for this exciting and food-filled week. For a mere $20.13 for a 3-course lunch or $38.13 for a 3-course dinner, you can enjoy their delectable cuisine and dine in this exquisite restaurant. READ MORE
	Boston Restaurant Week 2013 By Rose Harvey March 25, 2013 - 11:04am If there’s one aspect of being a college student that I can truly identify with, it’s that I’m constantly hungry. In addition, I never have enough money to eat what I actually want. Steak? Can’t recall the taste. Milk? I’ll buy it at Wollastons maybe once a month. Needless to say, when Restaurant Week rolls around in Boston, I’m pretty excited. READ MORE
	A Collegiette's Alternative Spring Break Experience By Clare Coughlan March 25, 2013 - 10:09am While most of my classmates were spending spring break tanning on the beach, partying on a cruise ship, or worst-case scenario, working at co-op or stuck at home, I was doing something much different. I was building a stranger’s house. READ MORE
	Admission: The Movie You Can Take Your Boyfriend to By Lauren Spinella March 24, 2013 - 3:57pm If you’re looking to go see a movie that’s funny, touching, and has a cute love story, "Admission" is the one to go to. Not only is the storyline adorable, but it doesn’t hurt that Tina Fey and Paul Rudd are the two leading roles. (I’ll take funny and cute combined any day.) This book-turned-movie is one that even your boyfriend would want to see. It has perfected the art of being a rom-com but also still keeps it funny enough that your guy won’t dread when it’s your turn to pick a movie for date night. READ MORE
	Sidewalk Catwalk: Amanda Schwartz By Stephanie Cohn March 22, 2013 - 1:00pm You know those mornings when you wake up and it’s so gloomy outside you think its still night? Well, Tuesday was one of those days. The sleet and snow just made it absolutely miserable outside, and I think most Bostonians would agree that there was little motivation to get up for school or work. It’s hard to believe that it is now officially Spring. Yet, communications/political science major, Amanda Schwartz welcomes the disgusting weather as an opportunity to wear one of her favorite outfits. Although the colors of her outfit may match the grey skies, it is definitely not drab. READ MORE

	What Your D-hall Tendencies Say About You! By Stephanie Cohn March 21, 2013 - 8:00am I view the dining hall as more than just a place to nourish yourself but also as a social event. It’s a time to relax in between your busy schedule and catch up with your friends or maybe meet new ones. My friend and I were doing just that when I noticed how differently we utilized our meal swipe. That’s when I realized how you eat in the dining hall isn’t just about food… it says something about your personality. These are the three dining hall personalities I have observed. 1. The Sampler: READ MORE
	Will the Real Disney Princess Please Stand up? By Connor Doherty March 20, 2013 - 8:00am There is nothing more devastating than the moment you realize you aren’t a Disney Princess. As children, we are taught that if we want something badly enough (and that if we befriend woodland creatures) we will somehow marry someone extremely handsome and successful and never have to work a day in our lives. LIES. In reality, woodland creatures have rabies and if you try to pet a raccoon it WILL claw your eyes out, and the only godmother we have is that elderly woman we see once a year who smells like a mixture of moth balls and hospice. Another tragic reality is that you can’t just break out into song whenever you like and participate in elaborate dance numbers. READ MORE
