If you couldn\u2019t figure it out from that, you can tell by looking around at the student body. This time of year, everyone is showing the effects of the past semesters, some more than others. Here is a list of a few archetypes you can find on campus this spring. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hot Mess Express: Characterized by losing ALL of their assignments, always showing up late to class and forgoing most necessary hygiene habits. Usually seen wearing the same stained sweats while running haphazardly in and out of Cavern and taking up temporary residence in the 24-hour room in the library. Never seen without a HUGE mug of coffee. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Previously-Thought-Dead: They\u2019re the ones who you didn\u2019t even know were in your class, because ever since syllabus week, they\u2019ve been MIA. And now that the semester is in the home stretch, there they are: honestly, probably doing better in the class than you&#8230;and you\u2019ve been there all semester. Honestly, YIKES. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Denial is Not Just a River in Egypt: This student has two research papers, a project proposal, and a presentation due before their lacrosse game, all within the next 48 hours. But don\u2019t worry about them, because they certainly won\u2019t. They\u2019re probably napping right now, trying to ignore the little voice in the back of their head that is telling them to MAYBE start their assignments. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Contact Stresser: Have you ever asked someone \u201cwhat\u2019s up?\u201d and the other person told you EVERYTHING that\u2019s going wrong in their life, starting with childhood trauma and ending with the looming assignments and projects that are STRESSING THEM OUT, OH MY GOD. And then, after talking to them, you have that nasty feeling of contact stress. Gross. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Suffering from Senioritis: We tried to interview them, but they\u2019re still hungover from the 100 Days Party. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Shamira James It\u2019s nearing the end of the year here at RC, if you you couldn\u2019t tell by the warmer weather, the anticipation of finals and the increased amount of people walking their dogs on campus.
