17 Struggles that Every Xavier Student Faces

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

College is never easy, and Xavier is no exception. You’re sure to face these daily XU struggles, and if you haven’t come face-to-face with these dilemmas yet… prepare yourself because they are sure to come your way.

1. Preparing yourself for that dreaded walk to Elet. 

2. And let’s not forget the walk to Cohen!

3. When all you want is food but the cafeteria is closed. 

4. That one moment when the world stops because you ran out of dining dollars. 

5. That moment when you don’t have anymore clean clothes. 

6. So you haul all your stuff to the laundry room only to find out there are no washers open.

7. After you finally wash your clothes and you go to dry them, only to realize there are no dryers left.

8. Just doing laundry… 

9. Craving coffee but not wanting to walk to Starbucks. 

10. But then walking up the hill to get it anyway. 

11. Finding your perfect place to study, only to realize someone has taken it. 

12. When you just want to make your own pasta again in the cafeteria. 

13. Eating Currito on the daily.

14. Never finding a parking space in R1

15. The Xavier Parties

16. Losing your All Card…and then finding it again.

17. Waiting in the long line just to have a taste of the sweet delicious omelets.

Although Xavier sure does have its fair share of challenges, it’s all part of the college experience, and it’s important to remember to recognize the struggles, have a laugh, and rise above them!
