Envisioning your life in college can feel like you are opening a window of endless excitement. Finding a student organization and taking fascinating classes will certainly add a splash of color to your life. With all this fun and excitement, there are so many things to love about going to college. Here are five to get you started! You can thank us later.
#1. Wearing pajamas to your 8 a.m. lecture

If your morning routine will consist of rolling out of bed, grabbing coffee, and strolling into class confidently with your pajamas on, that’s great. That first class in the morning can be a challenge, and there is nothing wrong with being comfy. If that isn’t your style, no one will hold it against you. Dress for your day!
#2. Movie night on a Monday

A flick on a Friday sounds pretty cool, but you know what’s better? A movie night on a Monday, of course! Whether you watch a movie on campus or in the theater, there is something different about seeing one on a school night. Check out these five college-themed movies to get started with this tradition. Feel free to call it “research.”
#3. Making friends from around the globe

College is an opportunity to connect with people from a variety of backgrounds. Whether your friends are from a different high school, city, state, or country, you’re bound to learn something new from them. There’s nothing like new friends to broaden your horizons and create exciting memories.
#4. Snack time is any time

What isn’t to love about trying new food or finding a new craving? At CSU, you can explore dining centers, marketplaces, and the food court in the Lory Student Center. You can get a delicious and diverse menu with every meal, at almost any time of day. (Late-night study snack, anyone?) Pro tip: If you want to branch out from on-campus food, you can indulge in dozens of awesome spots in Fort Collins.
#5. Losing your voice at a sporting event

Shouting at the top of your lungs for your favorite team isn’t just allowed, it’s encouraged! Yeah, loud noises! You can cheer on the Rams in a variety of sports, like basketball, volleyball, football, softball, and more. Being a part of the Ram Ruckus will be a thrill you won’t forget!
