I asked around what other people have heard and compiled a list of 10 things Grovers say and why they say them:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>\u201cHow many chapel credits ya got left?\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It is required as a student to acquire 16 chapel credits per semester. It is extremely easy to get this done because there are over 50 opportunities to receive a credit per semester. Because it is so easy to get all 16, it is also very easy to procrastinate going to chapel on Tuesday and Thursday morning. A great conversation between two people could start by simply asking how many credit one person has \u2013 if it\u2019s some ridiculous number (like 24, I\u2019m not kidding about that) Grovers can laugh at one another for not \u201cgroverachieving\u201d when it comes to chapel.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>\u201cLet\u2019s go on a Sheetz run\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>A super common, very popular eatery less than a 5 minute drive from campus \u2013 Sheetz. The MTO (Made to Order) food is to die for at 11:30 p.m. when you need fried mac n\u2019 cheese bites. Even if you do not want to get any food, it is a great way to just get off campus for a few minutes. Kick back, sit in the car, and enjoy another student\u2019s company. <strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>\u201cI wish Beans was open later\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Beans on Broad is a small coffee shop on Broad Street within walking distance of the school. The only catch: it is not open later than 6 p.m. and not at all on Sunday \u2013 not prime for a college kid. During finals, the place is packed because it has great coffee with a cozy atmosphere. Kind of like a \u201ccampus away from campus.\u201d<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>\u201cI dunno, I gotta talk to my advisor about it\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Each student at GCC is assigned an academic advisor they keep for all four years. This advisor is a professor within a student\u2019s department whom they go to for anything regarding their academic career, future career, or academic issues. Whenever a student is thinking of changing majors, it is normal to hear they have made no decisions about the transition because they have not spoken to their advisor about it yet.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>\u201cCan I borrow some quarters?\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The laundry has to get done, and sometimes it has to be done whether a student has quarters\/Crimson Cash or not. Yes, it is possible to run out of underwear. Since it is only $1.75 to wash and dry one load, borrowing that amount from a buddy is not that big of a deal. Make it up to them with a cup of Joe from Beans.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li><strong>\u201c3<sup>rd<\/sup> floor HAL is the struggle\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>As an Entrepreneurship major who has majority of her classes on the third floor, I relate to this quotation more than the rest. While Grove City College is considered to have some of the most fit college students in the United States, climbing up to the third floor of the academic building is no stress-free feat. I swear the only person who can do it without panting is Dwayne \u201cThe Rock\u201d Johnson.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"7\">\n<li><strong>\u201cWhat church do you go to?\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Note, not \u201cdo you go to church?\u201d \u00a0but \u201c<em>What<\/em> church do you go to?\u201d GCC does not offer a Sunday morning service in Harbison Chapel because the school wants its students to make a home church off-campus. Typically freshmen are looking for suggestions on what churches to try and will ask upperclassmen for suggestions on the places they have been to \u2013 and ultimately stayed at.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"8\">\n<li><strong>\u201cMcNulty is bae\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The sentence does not make the person sound very intelligent but it is more than true. Our President, Paul McNulty, is such a cool guy and he makes an effort to be at as many student events he can. His wife holds a Bible study for upperclass women every week and it is common to see their chocolate lab, Boomer, being walked around the Quad on nice days.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"9\">\n<li><strong>\u201cI\u2019m in the mood for some chicken tenders\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Consistency is key. The student union&#8217;s GeDunk Cafe almost always has chicken tenders for lunch and dinner and thankfully they are not half bad. The downside is they aren&#8217;t as appealing after having them for three consecutive days. So when a Grover is in the mood for chicken tenders and the Gee has them, it is a good day.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"10\">\n<li><strong>\u201cYou don\u2019t know what an omelet is because you didn\u2019t know Sherry\u201d \u2013 all seniors <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Bon Appetit is an amazing caterer for the College and every morning they have an omelet station where students can order specifically what they would like with their eggs. There used to be a worker who was an expert omelet maker (Sherry) but she has since moved on to better things and the seniors still have not gotten over it.<\/p>\n<p>Next time you are on Grove City College&#8217;s campus, pay attention to student conversations and see how many times you hear one of these phrases said &#8211; I can guarantee that it will be more than you think!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are some pretty common things Grove City College students always say while living on campus that range from asking about chapel to offering to go somewhere else for the day.
