Back-to-School Safety and Tips
• • • • • Procrastination – Enjoy the relaxed start of the semester, but not too much. Being behind sucks.
Know Your Schedule – No one wants to walk into the wrong class, or another person.
Get Some Sun – The workload is coming. Get some vitamin D before it’s too late. But don’t stay out too long or use some sunscreen, because sunburns seriously hurt.
Hitting the Gym – Guys, we all know you’re trying to get swole for spring break. Lift weight you can handle to avoid pulling something. Girls, keep up the good work.
And most importantly… • Failing to do so is bad for your health.
