Are you a sophomore, Junior, or Senior? Do want to see how much of a freshman you still are? Take the quiz to find out! Simply answer the following yes/no questions to receive how much of a First year student you are

  1. _____Do you wear your key and Clark Card around your neck?

  2. _____Do you find yourself asking for the full names of such Clark terms as “The AC” or “Jeff?”

  3. _____Do you believe David Angel is not a lizard?

  4. _____Over the weekends do you find yourself looking for parties in groups of 10 or more?

  5. _____Are you on the meal plan?

  6. _____Do you live in either Bullock, Wright, JSC or Dodd halls?

  7. _____Do you know where the LEEP center is? No, the other one.

  8. _____Can not you remember a time in which the campus bookstore was a real building?

  9. _____Do you think you should call the Bistro “The Stro?”

  10. _____Do you check student events for things to do on Friday nights?

If you have mostly yes, you're still a freshman. You definitely wear your lanyard around your neck and haven't figured out how to swap meals at the “stro.” Stop acting like an upperclassman and accept your place.

If you have mostly no, congratulations. You understand acronyms and have fond memories of Spree Day. You probably know other things but are still a fucking freshman. Get over yourself enjoy your remaining three years.

If you answered with mostly maybe, take the quiz again while providing honest answers.

Hipster Quote of the Week:

The message at the end of “The Tortoise and the Hare” isn’t that ‘slow and steady wins the race’, but actually a well-remembered quote from the 1977 Disney classic “A New Hope”: “Great kid! Don’t get cocky”. Bullshit that the hare was gonna lose that race if he didn’t choose to stop for a nap and a snack and whatever else he did. Bullshit that the tortoise was going to catch up in any capacity if the hare didn’t slow down for him. Maybe that platitude makes sense, but definitely not in this situation.

 

A race is a sheer contest of speed. No other skills go into that. The tortoise and the hare aren’t making miniature wooden horses and getting judged on the craftsmanship of their products alongside their finish time; they are moving from one point to another. In no universe does slow and steady win that race. Slow and steady wins no races, except for races where the point is to go as slow as possible. Even in cases where slow and steady could be considered a possible alternative to fast, such as the aforementioned miniature-wooden-horse-making competition, someone who can do similar quality work at a much faster pace still wins that competition.

 

Slow and steady does not win the race. Not being too full of yourself does.."
