Quinnipiac Horror Story: Part I

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

Now that American Horror Story has finally made its way back onto television and I’m getting into the creepy Halloween spirit, I’ve been inspired to share with you guys what I think are the “scariest” things on our beloved Quinnipiac campus.

1.  Java John making you late to class

You know that time in the morning when there is only one cash register open and, of course, it’s Java John’s?  He is the sweetest man in the world and just wants to have a conversation and make your day a little better, but the problem comes when the line is ridiculously long and your class is in CAS and starting in less than five minutes.  All you want is the pace to be picked up, just a little.

2.  The fact that the sushi bar is gone

The most horrifying realization of the 2014-2015 school year was that the sushi bar on Mount Carmel was not coming back.  This was personally devastating for my friends and I.  However, it is probably not the worst thing in the world for our meal plan, as the price of sushi basically evaporated my money away before the end of the semester before.

3.  Parking in Westwoods

As a sophomore, I had the immense displeasure of parking is Westwoods.  Anyone who parks or has ever parked there knows my pain.  My personal favorite: when it’s winter and you have to wait in the cold for a million years and then, when you’re finally back on main campus, you have to walk from the shuttle stop to your dorm.  Really, it’s just an overall horrific experience

4.  Hep Creek—no explanation necessary

5.  York Hill Cafe closing at 6 p.m. on Saturdays

This is just horrible.  On Saturday nights, all we want is food.  I cannot wrap my mind around the cafe being closed so early.  All I want at 11 p.m. is a waffle from the ever-present waffle iron and I can’t get one.  WHY?

Check back next week for Part II to read about some more “terrifying” things only Quinnipiac students will understand!
