As high school friends that become English majors complain about their crazy hard homework and schedules, I often find myself daydreaming about what my life would be like at a liberal arts school.

Let’s take a look!

““““““

8am- Wake up, smile, shower, go to class

9am- Sit in English class, everything makes sense!

10am – More class, its basic calculus, oh boy this one’s a toughy

11-1pm – Meetings for all the fun clubs I have time for

1pm- Super excited for lunch today, I not only have time to eat but I am going off campus

1-2pm – Oops took a longer lunch, but that’s ok, I’ll just push back my nap

2-5pm – Naptime, everything is happy, I might not get a job but at least I’m not depressed

5-6pm – Still a little sleepy, might have to grab some Starbucks, but honestly I don’t even need caffeine!

6-7pm – Time for golf practice, some people say it’s hard to play a sport and balance school- but I seem to be doing fine

7-8pm – My friends and I love to watch Master Chef Junior, it’s a weekly thing

8-10pm – These are my busy hours! Need to eat, shower (again), and even write a paragraph for my class on the cultural and societal impact of Post Malone

10-12am – Go to a WPI frat party to meet my future rich spouse, those nerds look so tired

12-1am – Head home and go to bed, I love being well rested

““““““

TLDR: Our schedules are awful but at least we are really stimulating our minds through project based learning. Layer un racoonst!

The Institute spoke with some members of the class of 2021 to get their views on the news.

“I think it’s great! I can get started on my Physics 1111 homework sooner!” said Ronny Gladstone, RBE-CS-BME-ECE-XYZ ‘21. “Or better yet, graph the net gender ratio increase on a program I wrote for my TI-Nspire!!”

“Dang it, I had my Fitbit charged and everything! Do you know how many steps I would have gotten walking up and down Dix Street looking for loud music?” said Melony Freed, trying to decide which oversized shirt to wear instead of her current crop-top.

Instead of wandering aimlessly in the freshman packs traditionally seen on the first Friday of every year, WPI encourages students to conduct their typical Sunday routines such as using all of your remaining meal swipes before they expire, playing way too many games of Cards Against WPI, or trying to unsubscribe from the frisbee alias.

“Yep, that’s definitely the schedule for tonight,” said Chad Toledo, Tau Iota Tau Risk Manager. “Nothing going on here tonight, no parties whatsoever,” as he quickly switched the music from Young Thug to a lecture capture from his engineering design class.
