20 Things Pitt Students Would Rather Do Than Study For Midterms

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

Before the freedom of Spring Break, most of us have to make it through midterms, and midterms are the worst. So, to procrastinate further, enjoy this list of things Pitt students would rather do than study for midterms!

1. Take the stairs up all 42 stories of Cathy

2. Attempt to befriend your building’s security guard when you’re drunk at 3 a.m.

3. Walk down Atwood barefoot on a Sunday morning

4. Further revel in our victory over Penn State

5. Watch the 10A leave the Cathedral without you

6. Boil all your water (just to be safe; who knows if the crisis is really over?)

7. Befriend the Oakland crows and train them to do your bidding

8. Give some change to the “can you spare me a dolla so I can get something to eat” lady on Forbes

9. Get a two-month head start on filling out your OMET’s

10. Consider the transitive property (if we beat Clemson, and Clemson beat the best team in the country, then technically…)

11. Run up and down the Pete steps for an hour (or, honestly, exercise of any form)

12. Jump between the roofs of Bruegger’s and Qdoba

13. Get stuck between Bruegger’s and Qdoba

14. Drink the water from the utensil return at Market

15. Run with a full backpack up the Chevron steps

16. Use one of the showers in Benedum (yes, there are showers in Benedum)

17. Eat Szechuan off the floor of Szechuan

18. Further ponder about the Pitt Druids (who are they, what do they do? Where have they gone??)

19. Keep Kevin Stallings as the Men’s Basketball Coach

20. Write this list (so true so meta)
