Sexual Assault
Sexual assault among college campus has become to common and it needs to addressed. I think that often times, students get too comfortable on campus and forget that they can be dangerous too. Just like on any Saturday night on frat row, I know not to go alone and not to leave with someone I did not come with. There are little things that can help to prevent horrible things like Erin’s story from happening. In Erin’s case, I do not think there is much she could have done. It seems like a very honest situation gone bad. In this case though, she should have filed a police report. Too often, girls think that just because they flirt with a guy they may deserve whatever happens to them and I do not agree with this at all. I may flirt with someone, but that does not mean I want to be violated. So in conclusion, I think Erin is a brave girl, for stepping up to tell her story and hopefully it will give others the courage to do the same.

Budgeting Tips
This is an article I wish I would have read months and months ago. Students do not realize how difficult it can be living on your own. The world is a lot more challenging and expensive, then I could have ever imagined. It is a good idea to continue money back. If you don’t have the money you are going to need in a few weeks, then don’t spend it! It is very helpful to setup a budget. When setting up a budget, it is helpful to know how much you need to be bringing in to make your income more than what you are paying out. It seems to be such a simple process, but it does get very complicated. It is not always easy to stay in on a Friday night, because your friends have managed their money and you haven’t. More than anything I have learned in college so far, it is to be wise with your money it goes quickly!
