Every September, the upperclassmen humiliate and egg the incoming freshmen. For the past few years, participation in Freshman Friday has been steadily declining, and it seems that more students are coming to the realization that hazing is a nasty ritual. The change from middle school to high school is a big one, and what freshmen really need is help adjusting, not guilt from getting egged. Additionally, ninth graders have the lowest grades and worst behavior out of all the high school grade levels, according to the journal Education.

This is not some elaborate plan put together by the upperclassmen preying on the underclassmen. The pranks are pulled by the professors cue audible gasps from the audience. Professors have a wicked sense of humor.

They think it is hilarious to give you deadlines on Friday nights! I am literally crying from laughter, with real tears that are not actually from laughter. Did I say Freshman Friday? Whoops, slip of the keyboard. I know you thought the reticent nature of high school might be something you left behind as you entered your formative years.

The truth is I am being a little hard on the professors. This is not a weekly or even a monthly occurrence. It is most likely to fall on the Friday before finals week unless you have a major like communication or journalism. In that case, party on. If you are wondering if I am exaggerating, the answer is no. I am understating.

Just remember this as you slowly transition into your university life: stay scared, you will thank me later. And finally, just remember that this year is not an end-all be-all. You are allowed to explore. You are allowed to have fun. Because by the end of your freshman year, you probably screwed it up anyway and will have to start over.
