10 Awkward Moments All Umass Students Have to Deal With

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

Alright, UMass Collegiettes, don’t tell me you haven’t experienced any of these. Here are out Top 10 Awkward Moments All UMass Students Have:

1. Having the elevator doors close on you in a high rise…

“No, I’m really good, I’ll just take the stairs now.”

2. The judgement we receive from family members when we tell them we’re going to school UMass…

“That’s quite the party school…” (It’s also one of the top universities in the country.)

3. The struggle that is going by the library on a windy day…

4. Getting a table at Berk on a Friday at 6:30…

5. Explaining “Scooter Girl” to our friends back home…

“She’s a girl that rides a scooter… but it’s a scooter.”

6. We might as well make UHS our second home for how long it takes to get an appointment…

7. When people ask about how are football team is doing…

…And then you change the subject to, “Did you know basketball just started?”

8. The daily rejection that is overfilled buses…

9. Talking to our parents about “Blarney Blowout”…

“Well, no mom, I did not get arrested…”

10. Maneuvering the new revolving door at the library…

But, we still love UMass!
