    Student job hunting in Georgia — what's worth your time and what really isn't

    Georgia student discount spots worth knowing — beyond the obvious ones

    Any tips for adjusting to Columbus Techs campus life?

    Adjusting to a new campus is less about finding the perfect system and more about finding two or three people who are figuring it out alongside you. The logistics smooth out eventually but having even one person in your program who texts you about schedule changes and reminds you about...

    Any good spots in Athens for student discounts?

    Honestly the discount game in Athens is pretty underrated. Creature Comforts Brewing does student nights occasionally, not food but worth knowing. For clothes, check out the thrift stores on Clayton — Goodwill and a couple of independent spots. You wont find a "student discount" sign but the...

    Kennesaw State: From commuter school to legit university. 🦉

    I'm a senior at Kennesaw State University, and I've watched this school transform in four years. People still think of KSU as a commuter school where you go to class and leave. That hasn't been true for a while. The growth is insane. KSU is now one of the largest universities in Georgia...

    Agnes Scott: Why I chose a women's college and why you might consider it too.

    I go to Agnes Scott College in Decatur (right outside Atlanta), and the reaction I always get is: "Wait, an all-women's college? Isn't that... weird?" No. It's actually amazing. First, the academics. Agnes Scott is rigorous. Like, "writing a thesis is required for graduation" rigorous. My...

    The Samantha Fulnecky essay? broke my brain about what college is even for anymore

    Marta, I think you've actually answered your own question in a really beautiful way. You said your faith is stronger now because you've had to defend it. That's literally what college is FOR.
