Congratulations! It’s your last year of college, and you could not care less about school. Three years of slaving away over papers, projects and finals should be enough, right? You’ve thrown in the towel and have come to the conclusion that you can’t keep up with the eager freshmen anymore. If you show any of the following signs, you probably have a bad case of senioritis. We’d buy you a “get better soon” card if our college budget allowed.
1. You think the required textbooks are optional (and know the optional textbooks are just a ploy to make freshmen spend more money at the bookstore).
Â
2. Organizations and clubs you once led now know you only by name—because showing up to general body meetings (and meetings in general) is for noobs.
Â
3. You see assignment due dates as assignment start dates.
Â
4. You find every reason to skip class, because you are a very busy person—like, you have to brush your teeth AND wash your face in the morning. That 9 a.m. chemistry lecture never stood a chance.
Â
5. You think studying means online shopping next to an open book.
Â
6. Pop quizzes don’t phase you, because when you don’t read the syllabus, every quiz is a pop quiz.
Â
7. The only students on campus who care less than you are those graduating in December.
Â
8. You think senioritis should qualify for a doctor’s note, because your professors don’t understand that skipping class is actually for everyone else’s benefit. What if it’s contagious?
Â
9. The only revising you do on your paper is changing the file name from “Rough Draft” to “Final Draft.”Â
Â
10. With your current grades, there’s a chance you may not graduate on time.
