Everything I Know I Learned at the University of Michigan

+ Pulling an all-nighter before an exam usually works. You remember the material pretty well if you've just read it.
+ If you're trying to find housing, you will inevitably be pressured to sign the lease "soon, because we have people coming to look at the house/apartment tomorrow."
+ Check your email at least twice a day. Every hour or two is recommended.
+ Cars break. Often.
+ Computers crash. Often.
+ Most professors really want to be nice.
+ The Fishbowl holds people and some houses hold zoos.
+ The more acronyms, the better (props if you can identify all 67 of these; not all are entirely Michigan constructs, although they all relate to the university): TA, GSI, RA, MPA, MPAA, APA (there are two definitions here), APAA, UGLi, U-M, UMS, CRLT, CCC, IVCF, ERC, UHS, URC, CRC, UCO, ULC, RHA, MSA, LSA, LSA-SG, MUSKET, UMGASS, RC, RCP, S-M, MSU (!!), OSU (!!!), SEA, CCF, KSA, CSA, AP, CSC, TSA, BA, AWA, DAAP, BAM, LGBT, APAWJ, SOLE, YAF, BTA, SAFE, ISA, FSA, BFA, ANSWER, SKITT, BSU, NSCS, BS, BGS, BSE, MA, ASL (two definitions), PhD, MFA, MBA, BBA, BPC, IM, PIRGIM, PIRG.
+ Football is god. At least on Saturdays in the fall (much to my disgust... j/k).
+ Weekends are for sleeping.
+ (Student) elections are a joke.
+ Don't even try to park anywhere in a downtown area before 6pm.
+ Yes, Virginia, landlords really can come from hell.
+ If you let it, instant messenger will consume your life.
+ If you let it, the internet will consume your life.
